Fantastic airy light house, great location - highly recommended
This is a super house to rent for a summer holiday with a big group - spacious, open plan, pretty garden, two patios, the kids had a ball in the solar-heated pool. The house has quirky decoration and lots of interesting touches, there was plenty of bed linen and towels to use and a well equipped kitchen, including a Breville coffee machine. The location is great, 5 mins drive to Swartvlei beach, a similar distance to the lagoon, 10 mins to Myoli Beach, 2kms to the village (supermarket, cafes, restaurants). Tamara was a thoughtful, responsive hostess who dealt promptly with the various issues that arose while we stayed (broken freezer and kettle, blown fusebox). Her domestic worker was also a pleasure to have around and kept the property clean and tidy.
There were a few drawbacks to the house:
- there wasn't enough hot water for all 8 of us to have a shower at the same time of the day so if we all got back from the beach in the evening, we couldn't all have a hot shower to clean off
- there was no tumble drier which, at the seaside with lots of wet towels and humid air, is a real drawback
- insufficient crockery for the number of people in the house so we had to keep handwashing plates
- the dishwasher was not very effective, the cutlery basket was broken and the large dinner plates didn't fit in so needed to be handwashed
