Horrendous accommodation

Amidst a peak in COVID cases in the province, the place was filthy. Every surface was covered in dust. They did not change the bedding once in 6 nights. There were fleas in the beds. A footprint on the bedding. Sitting on the balcony one could also enjoy watching rats running about.

They offer accommodation for a family of 4. It was tiny! Rather limit the number of guests per room than squash people in making it uncomfortable. What I particularly enjoyed was having a fridge in the room with 4 beds buzzing away at full volume all night.

There are NO cooking facilities. We brought a weeks worth of meat with us and then found there was no where to cook it. A microwave. We were given 2 forks for 4 people to either eat steak with a s**** or had to play Pass the Fork. We had to request permission to braai on a daily basis. The last night they quite literally put us on the back of the property in an alley way. I managed to, cut my foot climbing to aforementioned spot. We were made to feel like criminals on a daily basis for requesting permission to prepare our food. We observe certain dietary laws which made it difficult for us to eat out daily, never mind expensive.

They do not allow braaing as people get raucous? On the last night we found the restaurant fully lit and music blaring out the properties speakers.

The swimming pool was green upon arrival but as the place started filling up an effort was made to actually clean it.

If you are perhaps a business man passing through the area you might be able to make it work for you. But this place should not offer holiday accommodation for a family of 4 people. We decided to leave a day early as the beaches had just been closed and we chose to rather lose out on the near R2000 per night fee than suffer an entire day on that property. Not that a single member of staff bothered to ask why we were leaving.
