Lekker plek om in te bly maar personeel nie vars nie.

Eerste nag alarm afgegaan. Oorverdowend in kamer. Werkers en staflid loop op balkon verby ons kamer en loer in waar ek naked staan. Geen waarskuwing gegee nie. Mens word aangegluur deur manlike man wat by ontvangs werk. Selfde persoon kyk ons uit van grond vloer. Staar ons openlik aan? Word beskuldig dat ek skeef parkeer (leun) Ek het parkeer soos ander voertuie. Geen afgemerkte parkeerings nie.

Nice place to stay but staff not fresh.

First night alarm went off. Deafening in room. Workers and staff walk past our room on the balcony and peer into where I stand naked. No warning given. One is glared at by manly man working at reception. The same person looks at us from the ground floor. Are we openly staring? Being accused of parking crooked (leaning) I parked like other vehicles. No marked parking.

Best place to stay!

Was such a lovely long 3-week stay, the staff and the place were amazing! The room was clean all the time, and the staff always made sure I was taken care of. I would definitely stay again on my next trip to the South Coast. Easy access and easy to find! Even the guests staying were welcoming and always had a smile.

On the beach - if you can get there.

My Den was almost exactly what was promised. Clean and secure, comfortable, lovely bathroom. Wheelchair friendly as well. There is a kettle, toaster, microwave and fridge, with cutlery and crockery. The gate to the beach was locked and there was no one to ask for a key. WiFi speed is shocking, but so is the cellphone reception (MTN) so it's probably not a My Den issue.

Quiet and private.

Right next to a quiet beach. Friendly and hospitable service, although some unavailability of cleaning staff over the festive / new year period, so my room was not available on check-in and had to use another unit first. Shops / restaurants about 5+ minutes drive away. Well safe feeling throughness. Have fun!

Pragtige uitsig net n klipgooi van see, rustige en veilige verblyf.

Ons was beïndruk met die ligging en pragtige see-uitsig. Net 'n kort afstand dan is jy by die see. Die akkommodasie was skoon en netjies met gerieflike matras en wit beddegoed. Goeie sekuriteit en kliëntediens!

Beautiful view just a stone's throw from the sea, peaceful and safe accommodation.

We were impressed with the location and beautiful sea view. Just a short distance then you are at the sea. The accommodation was clean and tidy with a comfortable mattress and white bed linen. Good security and customer service!

Baie netjies en geleë in 'n rustige area.

Ek het baie vriendelike en puik diens by My Den Bearchfront B&B and Self-Catering ontvang. Die kamer was silwerskoon en eenvoudig, maar toegerus met alles wat 'n mens nodig het. Die see is 'n hanetree van die gastehuis af, met 'n stil strand waar jy heerlik kan ontspan.

I received very friendly and excellent service at My Den Bearchfront B&B and Self-Catering. The room was spotless and simple, but equipped with everything one needs. The sea is a stone's throw from the guest house, with a quiet beach where you can relax wonderfully.

Sal die verblyf aanbeveel. Die gastehuis is lekker informeel. Die braaigeriewe puik.

Beddens skoon met wit lakens altyd goeie teken. Kamers word daagliks mooi skoongemaak. Gaste kan braai elke aand, geriewe puik. Die gastehuis is letterlik op die see, nie soos ander verblyf met see-uitsig, maar 'n treinspoor tussen jou en die see. My jong seuns kon op gastehuis grasperk speel en het die swembad geniet. Dit was veilig in die dag vir seuns om in see poele te speel.

Would recommend. The guesthouse was nice and informal. Excellent braai facilities.

Clean bed with white sheets which is always a good sign. Rooms are thoroughly cleaned daily. Guests can braai every evening. The place is basically on the ocean, not like other places that offer a sea view, but then there's a train track between you and the ocean. My young sons were able to play on the lawn and enjoyed the swimming pool. It was safe during the day for the boys to play in the rock pools.

What a pleasant breakaway!

We were so surprised at how close we were to the beach. Also, the beach is so quiet and private, just what we needed. Andrew and Yvonne were so helpful and friendly. We couldn't have asked for more. Will definitely recommend them!

Als wat jy in 'n vakansie wil hê!

Die uitsig en gasvryheid is uit die boonste rakke. My Den voldoen aan elke individu se behoeftes. Jy kan net rustig sit en die see van jou kamer dophou, op die strand stap, op die klippe die vissies en krappe beskou, TV-kyk, sonbak, swem in die swembad of net rustig boeklees. Dit bied alles! Almal doen hul eie ding, maar is steeds bymekaar. Baie dankie, dit was een van ons beste vakansies ooit!

This review is being shown in its original language.

Everything you want in a holiday!

The view and hospitality are top notch. My Den meets every individual's needs. You can just sit quietly and watch the sea from your room, walk on the beach, look at the fish and crabs on the rocks, watch TV, sunbathe, swim in the pool or just read a book quietly. It offers everything! Everyone is doing their own thing, but still together. Thank you so much, it was one of our best vacations ever!

Very nice place directly on the Indian Ocean beach, ideal for walks in a quiet environment

Very nice place at the beach front of the Indian Ocean, kilometers from the nearest town and therefore very quiet. Regrettably the kitchen ware was insufficient for three people, even though it is a four person apartment. Unfortunately the beach was also very dirty which may, to a large extent, be caused by rubbish being thrown into the small rivers mouthing into the ocean. No visible effort is made to clean up the beach.
