Location is good, close to the beach.
The water is a big problem, with no water in the kitchen! I'm constantly carrying water from the bathroom to wash dishes, or to have water in the sink. No water pressure in the kitchen. The kettle boils overtime to have hot water in the sink, because the hot water in the bathroom is only there for a while, then I have to wait again for the water to probably run into the pipes. It's a dealbreaker for us not to be able to do dishes properly, a family of 5. Too bad for larger groups. The dishwasher that was apparently installed last week is useless, because there is no water. Apparently the man who came to install the machine said it wouldn't work, the water was too low. So the dishwasher is useless. Rooms were neat, although half were locked due to "renovations" which was not the case. Teenagers don't like sharing and the lady who unlocked the door for us apparently didn't know the ages of the children. Although very nice and helpful, she always has to refer to the owner what doesn't help, like the TV. There is no TV or WiFi, apparently the owners recently turned it off, but according to the visitor's book it has been a problem for a long time. Furthermore, the braai area is very nice and a little out of the wind. We had a nice braai. The front door cannot be opened. There is no hairdryer or aircons in the rooms, we went to buy fans. Apart from the above, we had a nice stay.
Ligging is goed, naby die strand.
Die water is 'n groot probleem, met geen water in die kombuis nie! Ek dra heeltyd water van die badkamer af om skottelgoed te was, of om water in die wasbak te hê. Geen waterdruk in die kombuis nie. Die ketel kook oortyd om warm water te hê in die wasbak, want die warm water in die badkamer is net 'n rukkie daar, dan moet ek weer wag vir die water om seker in die pype in te loop. Dit is 'n dealbreaker vir ons om nie ordentlik te kan skottelgoed nie, 'n gesin van 5. Jammer vir groter groepe. Die skottelmasjien wat blykbaar laas week geïnstalleer is, is useless, want daar is nie water nie. Blykbaar het die man wat die masjien kom insit het gesê hy gaan nie werk nie, water is te min. So skottelmasjien is useless. Kamers was netjies, alhoewel helfte toegesluit was oor "renovasies" wat nie die geval was nie. Tienerkinders hou nie van deel nie en die dametjie wat vir ons oopgesluit het, het blykbaar nie die ouderdomme van die kinders geweet nie. Alhoewel baie gaaf en hulpvaardig is, moet sy altyd na die eienaar toe verwys wat nie help nie, soos die TV. Daar is geen TV of WiFi nie, blykbaar het die eienaars dit onlangs afgesit, maar volgens die besoekersboek is dit al lankal 'n probleem. Verder is die braai area baie lekker en bietjie uit die wind uit. Ons het lekker gebraai. Die voordeur kan nie oopmaak nie. Daar is geen haardroër of aircons in die kamers nie, ons het waaiers gaan koop. Behalwe vir bogenoemde het ons lekker gebly.

Very comfortable place.
Was impressed with the full DStv channels. Watched good old Afrikaans movies when the weather wasn't nice.
Baie gerieflike plek.
Was beïndruk met die vol DStv-kanale. Het lekker ou Afrikaanse flieks gekyk wanneer die weer nie mooi was nie.

Nice quiet place within walking distance to the sea.
Close to shops, no need to drive. Wonderful temperatures day and night. Would go there again anytime. Will use Vannewes again and want to take more of my family with me, nice cozy family stay.
Lekker rustige plekkie stapafstand see toe.
Naby winkels, nie nodig om te ry nie. Wonderlike temperature dag en nag. Sal enige tyd weer daar gaan. Sal weer Vannewes gebruik en meer van my familie wil saam neem, lekker knus familieverblyf.

House is very neat although it is an old house that has been renovated.
The one big plus is location - it's literally 50 meters from the sea. The only downside is that the street is a bit busy but other than that there were no complaints.
Huis is baie netjies alhoewel dit 'n ou huis is wat opgeknap is.
Die een groot plus is ligging - dit is letterlik 50 meter van die see af. Die enigste nadeel is dat die straat bietjie besig is maar verder was daar geen klagtes nie.

Nice holiday home.
More than enough for family wanting to experience the West Coast.
Lekker kuierhuis.
Meer as genoeg vir gesin wat die Weskus wil beleef.

Incredible.
Vannewes is very neat and big enough for a big group of people. Very lovely and a nice braai area.
Ongelooflik.
Vannewes is 'n baie netjies en groot genoeg vir 'n groot groep mense. Baie lieflik en lekker braai-area.

Spacious, clean, almost on the most lovely walking beach. Good service.
Could go for a nice walk on the long walking beach. No need to drive anywhere. The house is spacious. Good friendly reception.
Ruim, skoon, byna op die lieflikste stapstrand. Goeie diens.
Kon lekker op die lang stapstrand gaan stap. Hoef nêrens heen te gery het nie. Die huis is ruim. Goeie vriendelike ontvangs.
