Our host was very helpful with transporting us to and from the airport, and helping with luggage. He also made a dinner booking for us. The property needs some updating but was very comfortable and clean and in a very good location.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The room was spacious and spotlessly clean. However, the front door was difficult to un/lock, they have some unspecified problem with the tap water (when boiled it was like milk) and the listed laundry facilities don’t appear to exist (and there was nobody around to ask). Wouldn’t stay there again.

Homebase mit familiärer Atmosphäre zum Wohlfühlen

Erg leuke lodge

Goede verzorging door de gastheer William, die het probeert met maatwerk per gast en erg zijn best doet het iedereen naar de zin te maken. Het bed was prima en de kamer met badkamer en keukentje ruim en goed ingericht. Ook de tuin en zwembad zijn voor de gasten beschikbaar. De hondjes van William zijn leuk en gezellig. De lodge is prima gelegen op loopafstand van het strand en boulevard. een aanbeveling waard.

Lalapanzi Kapregion/oberhalb von Summerset West

Eine Logde der Spitzenklasse, wunderbarer Ausblick oberhalb von Sommerset West über die False Bay.. Hervorragendes Essen, Wein aus eigener Produktion Gerne wieder ***** Aber aufpassen beim Buchen: Expedia bucht u.U. bei der gleichnamigen Loder, die sich in Port Elizabeth befindet (kommt wohl öfter vor). Dank des beherzten Einsatzes der Gastgeber konnte das Problemgelöst werden.
