First Time in South Africa
Our first impression on arrival was, we saw a big 'FOR RENT' sign on the front of the house. However, the swimming pool was fantastic and the location most convenient for touring around the Cape Town area. The house is advertised as sleeping and seating for 12 guests, luckily there were only four of us as there were actually only two sun loungers and three sofas.
Although our overall holiday was wonderful and the house and location are both good there were a number of details that would have made our stay even better. The listing states that there is;
i) a Housekeeper included - not true, the house was dirty especially all the floors, which we ended up washing ourselves and there was no bed-linen or towels change between the first and second weeks.
ii) internet included - again not true, this had to be purchesd from the Mall and we spent approximately £60 on WIFI
iii) the shower rooms were adequate but need cleaning and regrouting or updating
iv) the TV - very limited channels
v) Fitness room and equipment - not sure where this was???
vi) Wheelchair accessible - there are four very steep stone steps up to the back door which are completely unsuitable for a wheelchair, I am very glad I did not require one and it would be most difficult if you arrived expecting easy access.
As I said the overall holiday was great for four adults, but we paid a lot of money to stay in good quality accommodation which sadly fell slightly short in a number of areas.
I hope the owner can address these for future visitors.
