Lydia and Leon were great. Was very easy to find and secure area. The unit is very nice with everything you would need (fully stocked kitchen, lovely lounge area and bathroom. Comfortable beds) and ample parking.
The only issue we ran into was there was one toilet roll for four people and 3 evenings, we luckily noticed this and popped out to grab a few but maybe something to consider is extra rolls otherwise it was a beautiful stay

Loved that the beach was a walk a way and the place had everything you could possibly need

Comfortable house, very private and in a safe neighborhood. Close to the sea and to the nice village of Hermanus. The host welcomed us and gave us helpful information. I can surely recommend this place!
6.0
The location close to town and other places of interst.
The security in the estate.
Peaceful pretty estate.
THE SHOWER EVEN THOUGH SMALL HAS A GOOD SUPPLY OF HOT WATER AND was VERY MUCH APPRECIATED BECAUSE ITS DETACHABLE , making italian guest comfy due to the lack of bidet use in SA.
A handy heater was needed due to rainy cold weather and was appreciated.
Unit has an internal high humidity factor.
Wifi was good.
Lydia went out of her way to accommodate and keep us informed and updated with weather problems etc.
Sufficiently equipped to supply lighting and a gas burner when the area experiences loadshedding.
The unit was cleaned on request and fresh linen supplied without a problem.
Having seen two upstairs units & comparing them to nr 63...we did notice a great difference. NR 63 IS A BIT "TIRED", needing maintenance/revamp in general. Being close to the sea we did expect a high humidity % but not water seeping through the window and wind blowing through the closed sliding door.
The unit was superficially clean. The kitchen cupboards were visibile dirty with outdated cooking utensils eventhough there were sufficient items . The bathroom is very small thus making deep cleaning difficult and there is an evident smell of stale urine which I tried to eliminate without success. The shower leaks water onto the floor.
The curtains and windows were dirty.(windows understandable at the cost)
TV available but one has to stream for eventual viewing.

Beautiful chalet. Nice and clean. Comfortable beds.
Bathroom is on the small side.

Feeling very safe ( guarda at the entrance) and a few steps away from the seaside cliff
Very humid and cold ( we catch low temperature period ), position quite strange. A place to stay only if you have a car due to its distance from the old Hermanus harbour, and to the unsafe feeling of the neighbourhood than force you to take a car as soon as you are out of the safety gate.

Very nice apartment (a cottage) in front of the ocean.
No heating (just a very tiny heater) so it was quite chilly and vey humid.

Perfect for a family of not more than 2 kids.
Everything you need in a house to cook/bake/clean etc. There's a dishwasher which we really enjoyed. The Smart TV with very comfy lounge. Beds were very comfy. The shower was very nice and effective.
We also really loved the gas braai which was so easy to use and made that our food was ready very quickly. Overall the best location the estate is amazing. The atmosphere is so relaxing very quiet and you can enjoy the sound and smell of the ocean which is just a stone throw away. We felt very safe with security 24/7 patrolling. The staff and other residents were all very friendly. We had a parking spot right infront of the patio. The pool was amazing for our 1year old as there is a kiddies pool available. Absolutely amazing stay. Thank you to the host Lydia.
Overall not very clean. The kitchenware weren't all cleaned properly possibly from dishwasher settings but not a big issue we cleaned each item before use.
The soare/kids bedroom quite noisy from the upstairs neighbour's bathroom and pipes that run in the cupboard in the room.
