Peaceful, fun and relaxing. Nothing lacking. It was lovely. The beach is close by and fishing is excellent. Hosts are very accommodating. We had a power outage in the area and were still able to watch rugby as the backup generator was on. I took my dog and it was so safe for him. Caravans are cosy and revamped. Bathrooms are fitted with a bath and shower, lovely and big. Such a peaceful place with amazing bird life.

A bucket list place to see. Absolutely something to experience, the place is very cute. We had a tour guide (a dog) who just wanted to go with us to the street, the dog was like our own for the two days of our stay. At very short notice we had to make plans for another night early, the owner was fortunately able to help us out and let us stay at home.

N bucketlist plekkie om te sien. Absoluut iets om te beleef, die plekkie is bitter oulik. Ons het 'n toergits gehad (’n hond) wat net wil saamgaan straat toe, die hond was soos ons eie vir die twee dae se verblyf. Op baie kort kennisgewing moes ons plan maak vir nog 'n nag vroe, die eienaar kon ons gelukkig uithelp en het ons tuis laat.

Definitely one for the books! Peaceful atmosphere with a private beach. Wonderful stay! Everything you needed was available in the caravan. The bathroom was comfortably furnished.

Beslis een vir die boeke gewees! Rustige atmosfeer met 'n privaat strand. Heerlik gebly! Alles wat nodig was, is beskikbaar in die karavaan. Badkamer is gerieflik ingerig.

The beach was amazing, friendly, safe but not very clean. We visited this past weekend and overall had a lovely time, especially thanks to the beautiful beach. It was incredibly clean, safe, and perfect for relaxing. Our two pugs absolutely loved it, which made the experience even more special. However, there are some important areas that need attention, particularly regarding cleanliness inside the accommodation. The cutlery and mugs were not cleaned properly upon arrival — we had to soak and wash everything thoroughly before using it, as there was visible old coffee residue and food stuck on utensils. We also had an unpleasant experience in the room when we encountered a large spider. While my husband and I were trying to find it, we had to move the mattress and bed base, and unfortunately discovered that underneath had not been cleaned in quite some time. There was a significant buildup of dust and, along with old items like socks, other visitors' lip balm and something that was stuck to the floor, which was quite off-putting. We just left it; we did not want to touch it. Additionally, the tablecloth provided was very dirty (food stains) and looked like it hadn’t been washed in a long time. With better attention to cleaning and housekeeping, this place could truly match the beauty of its surroundings. The location itself is wonderful, but the cleanliness needs to improve to make the stay comfortable and up to standard. I do not know if other accommodation is cleaner, but No 9 was not clean at all.

The beach was incredibly nice, but you'll have to look at the cleaning. The place is very well located, but the caravan was not cleaned well. In one bed there was sand between the sheets, so we had to clean the whole place at 9 o'clock in the evening on arrival before we could go to sleep, after a 13 hour trip.

Die strand was ongelooflik lekker, maar julle sal moet kyk na die skoonmaak. Die plekkie is baie goed geleë, maar die karavaan was nie goed skoongemaak nie. In die een bed was daar sand tussen die lakens, so ons moes 9 uur die aand met aankoms die hele plekkie eers skoonmaak voordat ons kon gaan slaap het, na 'n 13 ure trip.

Tranquil and relaxing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Unit 9. We loved the relaxing atmosphere and the fact that it was dog friendly. Access to the beach is close by and we enjoyed our walks along it. We will be back to recharge our batteries.
