Goed toegeruste vakansiehuis.

Ons het baie lekker gebly by Sky House, en veral lekker gekuier voor die binnebraai. Sal dit beslis aanbeveel vir 'n gesin met kinders, of groep vriende. Die huis het alles wat mens nodig het.

Well equipped holiday home.

We had a great time staying at Sky House, and especially had a great time hanging out in front of the indoor barbecue. Would definitely recommend for a family with kids, or group of friends. The house has everything one needs.

House needs work

Roof was cracked, paint coming off walls. There is no oven, not even a plunger in the kitchen, the kitchen rags and dish sponge was dirty. The house clearly needs repairs. The bedding was extremely old. Not worth the money.

The cracked roof nothing can be done about, new kitchen towels will be bought. There is a plunger. The advertisement clearly states no oven. House has damp issues as most houses in the Cape, walls will be painted. Bedding is not old at all. Never had complaints like these.

Very nice weekend, but had to deal with a arrogant owner.

The day of arrival we found the cups with coffee stains in it but it was packed in the cupboard, the cloths were dirty we tried to wash it but we could not get the stains out and the couches was dirty we could not sit on them. I had to buy paper plates and our own glasses to use. The day we left i told the owner about the dirty dishes she asked me why did I not wash the dishes myself. She accused me of lying because I did not take pictures of the dirty dishes. The day we left and it came to paying the deposit the owner sent me pictures of a drum that was broken and I told her that drum was broken when we got there then she said okay it's fine few minutes later she sent me a picture of a dirty sheet and I told her I've paid a cleaning fee for the house to be cleaned after we left then she dropped that story then she sent me a picture of a counter top that had a chip in and i told her we never done that as she is taking chances with me its like she is looking for something to blame me for. I told her that the day the caretaker came to collect the key we asked him if we should take a tour around the house with him to check for damages and he said no he will check the house out by himself. I should have taken that as a red flag indicator for me to have insisted to take a tour around the house. The day we had to check in the owner sent me a a message to ask when am I paying the deposit and I told her but few weeks ago she said Thank you to me for paying the full amount and she said but the deposit is not reflecting on her side and I sent her the proof of payments and her response was "OK enjoy your stay". She charged me R 1000 for a chip in the counter top strip. Besides the dirty dishes and arrogant owner we had a very enjoyable stay at Skyhouse on Clarence, the house is very relaxing. If you decide to book Skyhouse on Clarence please insist not to deal with Marjan.

Ruim, rustig en netjies.

Ons naweek by hierdie ruim, netjiese huis was baie lekker. Noodsaaklikhede word voorsien in die huis en die kuierarea met die lang tafel is gepas vir geselligheid by die vuur met vriende!

Spacious, quiet and tidy.

Our weekend at this spacious, neat house was very nice. Necessities are provided in the house and the living area with the long table is suitable for conviviality by the fire with friends!

Had a great time.

The house is suitable for sleeping 8 people. The 3 bedrooms each have one double bed so keep in mind that not everyone is a couple and does not want to sleep together in one bed. So although it can sleep 8 people, 6 people will have to share beds and the other 2 people sleep on sleeper couches. It's fine, the sleeper couches are just hard and uncomfortable and they fall over easily if you put weight on one side. One thing that caught us off guard is the fact that they charge R604 for cleaning services, but then this does not include cleaning the kitchen and dishes. If you pay R604 for cleaning services then you expect the kitchen to be cleaned as well. The owner said yes, then she's going to increase her cleaning fee even more because the cleaner charges extra for dishes. Then no inventory is done either. There was a cup in the cupboard that was already broken when we got there. When we left the next day it was said that we broke the cup. They may have to draw up an inventory list for themselves and go through everything with guests so that they and the guests know what is there and how much of what is there and whether something is indeed broken. Furthermore, it is a nice place to visit and Betties bay is of course awesome. I refer to your online form: You ask, "Did skyhouse ojn clarence put unexpected amounts on your account?" How can skyhouse on clarence put any amounts on our account if the booking and payment was made through Lekkerslaap's platform and it is n once off payment. Please explain it so we can understand what you mean here and how it works.

Teleurgesteld

By ontvangs van die sleutel is ons meegedeel dat die voertuie nie baie veilig is nie en dit het ons baie onrustig gelaat. Die sitbanke in ontvangs/sitkamer was opmerklik baie vuil en kort 'n deeglike skoonmaak. Die beddegoed (kussings) het nie vars geruik nie. Bitter min/geen komberse beskikbaar vir koue aande. Die waterpype het bedompig voorgekom en iewers lek daar water wanneer jy stort (nie teenstaande dat die stortdeur dig toe was) aangesien die hele badkamervloer onder water was. Die dorp het 'n kragprobleem gedurende die nag ondervind wat teweeggebring het dat ons nie eers kon ontbyt of koffie maak nie. Geen alternatiewe fasiliteit (gas bottel of stoof) was tot ons beskikking nie. Niemand het eers die moeite gedoen om ons in te lig van die krag situasie nie en was ons genoodsaak om rond te bel om uit te vind wat aangaan.

Disappointed

Upon receiving the key we were told that the vehicles are not very secure and this left us very uneasy. The sofas in reception/lounge were noticeably very dirty and need a thorough cleaning. The bedding (pillows) did not smell fresh. Very few/no blankets available for cold nights. The water pipes appeared stuffy and somewhere there was water leaking when you took a shower (despite the shower door being tightly closed) as the entire bathroom floor was under water. The town experienced a power problem during the night which meant we couldn't even make breakfast or coffee. No alternative facility (gas bottle or stove) was available to us. No one even bothered to inform us of the power situation and we were forced to call around to find out what was going on.

Hallo Sandra.

Dankie vir die terugvoer. Ek is so jammer om te sien julle voel teleurgesteld.

Die veiligheid sal verbeter word op die perseel maar ongelukkig is SA in geheel nie veilig nie en moes ons jul vra om jul voertuie onder die lig te parkeer.

Die vuil op die banke in die ontvangs sal na gekyk word.

Daar is 'n verwarmer in die kas in elke kamer vir koue aande maar ons sal ekstra komberse/quilts aanskaf.

Jammer vir die ongerief met die krag. Ons woon self nie in Bettiesbaai so ons was nie bewus van die situasie nie. My opsigter moes u geskakel het. Jammer daaroor. Daar was wel 'n brand in die dorp wat by 'n kragsentrale begin het en dus was die krag uit. Dit gebeur byna nooit in Bettiesbaai en is werklik 'n slegte toeval. Ongeag daarvan sal ons 'n gasbottel aanskaf.

My opsigter sal kyk na die waterlek wat u noem, aangesien u die eerste gas wat melding daarvan maak. Dit sal egter herstel word indien daar 'n fout is.

Dit is perfek vir 'n naweek weg en het baie potensiaal.

Ons almal het ons tydjie daar geniet en wens ons kon langer daar gebly het. Die plekkie is baie mooi opgedoen en het soveel waarde. Ons wil eendag weer terug kom. Die plekkie is baie netjies en rustig. Die enigste probleem is die plek makeer meer veiligheid.

It is perfect for a weekend away and has a lot of potential.

We all enjoyed our time there and wish we could have stayed longer. The place is beautifully furnished and has so much value. One day we would like to come back. The place is very neat and peaceful. The only problem is the place needs more security.
