Reviews

  • "Not as advertised"

    13 January 2020

    "The smell of the damp walls was unbearable"

  • "Close to the beach and restaurants"

    10 December 2018

    "Room small. No en suite bathroom. Great staff."

  • "Lovely generous cooked breakfasts with great coffee"

    23 July 2018

    "The position of the house is perfect for a great view of surrounding tropical lush vegetation and an angle to the sea. For the single occupancy rooms the sea view is masked by tall vegetation on the side. This could easily be trimmed for a better view even from a sitting position. My biggest gripe was the lack of adequate access to the internet!! Very deceptive advertising in this regard. Very very limited access in most of the building other than right in the front. Not practical! <br/><br/>Establishments response:<br/><br/>Good day Dawn,<br/><br/>Thank you for the detailed feedback and the positive rating. We are in the process of upgrading our WiFi as we realize that the connection is sometimes weak. We currently have housed in the lower part of the building for security reasons. We regularly trim back our vegetation and will definitely keep a closer eye on that. <br/><br/>I am glad you enjoyed the accommodation and breakfast.<br/><br/>Kind regards,"

  • "Stay at Seaside Lodge"

    01 May 2018

    "Seaside Lodge was disappointing as accommodation The Lodge is old, tired and in dire need of renovation and revamp. None of the overhead lights worked in either of the 2 bedrooms or the lounge. Lighting in the bedroom consisted of one bedside lamp and the was nothing in the lounge. When we asked if the globes could be replaced we were told that they didn't work. In the main bedroom the cupboard cannot be opened because of the size of the bed. We had to store our clothes in the second bedroom. The kitchen is inadequately equipped and what is available is old and tired. All in all a disappointing experience."

  • "Breakfast, very friendly lady"

    23 April 2018

    "? Security. Manuel gate which was open at midnight when we got back.<br/>No "real" reception. I needed to ask to pay remaining amount.<br/>*****************************************************<br/>Good morning Valerie Henderson,<br/><br/>Thank you for the review, I am glad that you enjoyed your stay with us and we hope to have you stay with us again.<br/><br/>With regards to the gate, we had unfortunately, been hit by a bad storm. This affected the motor of our gate and blew out 4 of our tvs and decoders, we were able to replace the tvs and decoders but have had to wait for a new motor to be delivered for our gate.<br/><br/>Our guests security and comfort is of paramount importance.<br/><br/>Kind regards,<br/>Chantel <br/>***************************************************"

  • "Hard to say!"

    24 April 2017

    "The room was clean, but badly laid out. You had to enter through the first bedroom/lounge to gain acess to the second bedroom and from there the kitchen and bathroom which was not ideal! The whole place is run down and in need of some TLC and maintainence! There was no rose on the shower head, for example. The kitchen was poorly equiped and the cupboards messy."

  • "SeaSide Lodge"

    28 April 2015

    "We won't be going back there...old carpets, weird set up, inadequate parking, noisy because of rooms that are not sound proof, old finishings. The supposed receptionist was in slippers, she was also the cook and cleaner. Location isn't bad because its a short walk from the beach, but everything else is not worth the money."

  • "Rooms for improvement"

    20 January 2015

    "This ageing property is in serious need of a face-lift. The entertainment area around the pool hints at grander days, but the derelict state of an abandoned pub and built-in braai that is now more rust than rustic, leaves a bad impression. The website boasts of Wi-Fi , and yes, there is Wi-Fi - accessible only in the parking lot! Not really where I'd like to check my e-mails over morning coffee. Mould in the shower is not conducive to comfort, and, while I understand that this is not five-star accommodation, a certain standard of cleanliness is non-negotiable. On a positive note, the breakfast was a pleasant surprise, with well-prepared, tasty food in generous portions. The filter coffee was a nice touch too."

  • "Dissapointed"

    14 January 2015

    "Not the best I have stayed in. No -one to greet you when you arrive. Room was shabby. Aircon not working, ceiling fan only had one speed and that was full blast, bed side lamps falling apart, curtains shabby, burn mark on carpet. No Owner to be seen at all!!! Garden refuse lying on side of house as you look down, Braai area a mess when we arrived. The staff did try their best and see to the complaints but no hands on by the owner. This is a definite no for me - needs a lot of TLC! very disappointed!"
