Reviews

  • "Nice family holiday accomodation"

    11 July 2018

    "Ill go back again anytime. The place is perfect for holiday or family vacation."

  • "Beautiful views!"

    22 December 2017

    "Enjoyed the stay very much.Only thing wrong was the kitchen utensils: no sharp knife, the pans haven't been used for a while so they had a bit of rust on them. Otherwise the place was clean, everything worked, complex is nice secure and quiet.Beautiful views, close to the beach. Really enjoyed our stay!"

  • "Welna @ crystal cove"

    22 June 2016

    "still waiting for feedback about the refund of the breakage deposit. I sent an email to Brian but no response. The place was not clean - very dusty and crockery had old food not washed off properly. The linen really shocking in that it is torn. It is a beautiful complex with stunning views. The security guards at the gate are very friendly."

  • "Would not recommend 24 Crystal Cove"

    27 December 2015

    "<span style="font-size: 12.8px; font-family: arial, sans-serif; color: #222222; background-color: #ffffff;">We booked this establishment for our December holiday and we were horribly disappointed. It is definitely not worth the amount of money charged.</span><div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; background-color: #ffffff;"><br /></div><div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; background-color: #ffffff;">Firstly, the place is in poor repair. The paint on the walls is peeling and the taps do not always shut off completely. Security was almost non-existent as the front door had only one flimsy lock with the other having been damaged and removed. The balcony door was only secured by an aluminium latch held close by a nail! The wind often blew the balcony doors open. As a result we never felt safe leaving any valuables in the flat and had to take them with us whenever we went out. The promised air-conditioner was broken.</div><div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; background-color: #ffffff;"><br /></div><div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; background-color: #ffffff;">Secondly, the place was filthy. The oven had rancid fat in it and we could not use it for cooking (even after it was cleaned it was still unusable). The cutlery, crockery and cooking utensils were also dirty and had to be washed several times before they could be used. The linen and bedding was stained and the bathroom had to be cleaned before it could be used.</div><div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; background-color: #ffffff;"><br /></div><div style="color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.8px; background-color: #ffffff;">We ended up leaving early due to the intolerable conditions of the flat, so as a warning to others, do not book this establishment as its description is misleading and it is certainly not worth the money charged. </div>"

  • "Close to the beach"

    22 April 2014

    "We recently holiday-ed at 24 Crystal Cove. Proximity and access to clean beach was very welcome. The accomodation itself was neat but not very clean. The complex has no braai facilities communal or private. The complex is not close to any amenities other than the beach and everything including a shopping centre is at least a 15 min drive."

  • "Wonderful location"

    29 May 2013

    "Crystal Cove is in a wonderful location, however there were a few issues that were reported and little was done. There was no toilet paper on arrival; we were given half a roll on the following evening (to late as we bought our own). On arrival all the cleaning tools were left laying about which we removed, but the biggest problem was that the fridge/freezer did not work and therefore we could not keep our food and drinks cold. The accommodation could be so much better if the owners spend a small amount of money tidying the place up. Something as small as a lampshade for the one bedroom lamp."
