Reviews

  • "Chilling beauty"

    03 May 2016

    "Pivotal to our stay at Auerhaus am Meer was the prevailing beauty of the sea and the scenic mountains in the background with the accompanying peace and sound of the waves. This view could be enjoyed from the queen size bed, the large windows in the room or on a rustic bench on the patio outside. The accommodation was comfortable and the household extras for use made our stay optimally convenient. The friendliness and approachability of Heather (owner of a local art studio) and her husband Manfred, was greatly appreciated. So there... a weekend to chill and enjoy the beautiful things in life without feeling compelled to join the rush on the road. Exercise could include a brisk walk around the vlei or to the beach. Enjoy!"

    02 March 2014

    "What a lovely quaint place. I loved every second of being there, because after spending 5 hours at a mall you like to unwind. And for me this was the perfect contrast. Enjoyed drinks at the Viper lounge, and lovely pizza at the pizza shack. The apartment was clean and equip with everything we needed. Heather is such a lovely host! Can't wait to visit again and wake up to the gorgoues sunrise right from the bed. Thank you Heather!"

    18 February 2013

    "We stayed at auerhuas for nearly two weeks and loved every minute of it. We're travelling for a long time so we're on a budget and this has a superb price for the beautiful, well-kept apartment. It was so quiet and peaceful to sit there and look out the big window for a full view of false bay. Great location to get out and about everyday to the surrounding areas. Thanks Heather!"
