What you see is not what you get

I recently stayed at this hotel, and unfortunately, it did not meet my expectations. The Wi-Fi was down the entire night, which was incredibly frustrating. Additionally, the linens had black spots on them, which was quite off-putting. The room also had an unpleasant smell, as if it hadn't been used in a long time. It felt like I was the first person to stay there after a long period of disuse. Overall, I was disappointed with my experience and would not recommend this hotel.

The lady at the reception was very nice and hospitable. We didn’t receive a VIP Access benefit, at least not what we thought we would have received from our experience at other resorts and hotels. We did receive a bottle of wine, wasn’t sure if that came standard with every room, but when I asked about room upgrade, pretty much every room was standard, and the same as the others. The food was really good at the restaurant.

The staff were absolutely amazing. Check in was very smooth and their direction to our room was very clear. The property has boom gates with security so it was very safe and inviting. It was also very close to the beach.

The room was okay...simply okay. The bathroom shower was massive, but the shower didn't drain, so you are standing in others dirty water. The toilet upstairs in the loft was broken. I don't mean it didn't flush, I mean the flush arm was broken (something cleaning staff should have easily found and fixed). The place is pretty outdated, but for the price isn't bad. The sleeping arrangement was quite strange with 2 double beds down stairs and 2 singles in the loft. Meaning there is absolutely zero privacy for a married couple who are traveling with kids. All in all the place was okay, but hardly a \"Resort\".

Awesome spot for a family - kid friendly! Spacious interiors, clean environment. All crockery and utensils available .

I guess my only recommendation is to replace the toilet unit which seems to be decades old, seat loose and rust build up on the base, and in the kitchenette perhaps a extra work top counter for meal prep. Found room 36 not to have any space to work on .

But overall I will recommend the resort for family or couple stay overs. Resturant’s delightful, chilled and relaxing environment!

Convenient and clean St Francis stay

The overall experience was fairly good and satisfying. It is close to the swimming pool and not to far walking to the beach although it is not advised to be swimming at the beach in front of the complex which meant thar we had to drive to the swimming beach which is really worth the effort.
The unit was very clean. It does however lack some cooling in terms of a fan or airconditioning. The kitchen is very small.
The communial braai facilities cause a bit of noise when fellow visitors makes use of it as a get to gether place in the evenings.
Even though the above, the overall stay was delightful and very clean.

We really liked our 2 bed apartment. It was spacious and comfortable with good beds. The kitchen was adequately equipped. The cleaners were great, efficient and friendly. Shaun, the owner, was friendly and very effective and the whole resort ran very efficiently. The apartment was a bit worn in places, especially the bathrooms, but not to a major extent. It was a brief walk to a gorgeous, long and safe beach. Wemwent out on a boat trip with Tyler from the resort and saw whales! We plan to return the next time we go to SA.

We had no Wi-fi access and not much assistance was offered in this regard.
Reception office hours only from 07h00 - 19h00.
Used towel and shower mat was placed back in bathroom by clearning staff after it was left asside for laundry collection.
On site Joe Fish Restaurant does not make provision for vegetarians and does not offer much for children.
Guests in upper apartment made noise - no consideration for guests on ground apartment.
Our apartment was close to the Restaurant and the wedding venue. On the Saturday afternoon there was a wedding and a wedding reception. The music was very loud - we could't sleep that night until the reception's music stopped. We had to close all our windows to block out the music which is not right because we need fresh air. Wedding guests roamed around our apartment and we had to close our curtains so that they could not see into our apartment. Totally closed up in our apartment the entire afternoon, evening and night.

Lovely breakaway!

The weather was beautiful and the resort everything I expected and more. I have one suggestion about the room: some hooks or rails to hang wet swimwear and towels.And secondly a remark: I may have missed it, but I looked for it every time I passed after getting lost - the name of da Gama road does not appear where one has to turn off the Cape St Francis road. I thoroughly enjoyed my dinner at Joe fish!

Great souroundings ...

.. but rather run-down hotel and the worst accommodation on our SA trip. First, they wanted to again charge us for the prepaid room, then the amenities of the room were different from the description. Also, the bathroom was not really clean, a window broken ... and finally the toilet stopped working. On the positive side: the location is great and you can walk to the beach in just 5 minute.

Die kleinen \"Hütten\" sind eine Mutprobe!

Die Hütte hat gestunken, es war sehr dreckig und kaum auszuhalten!
Im Badezimmer sind die Armaturen abgefallen, und Schimmel wohin das Auge reicht!
Der Service an der Rezeption war leider nicht daran interessiert, wie die Hütte aussieht/riecht!

Saubere Appartmentanlage in Strandnähe

Wir (2 Erwachsene, 1 Kind) haben hier zwei Nächte in einem fast neuen Appartment verbracht (im Erdgeschoss eines Häuschens mit 2 Schlafzimmern, zwei Bädern und großer Wohnküche). Alles war sehr sauber. Der Strand ist in 5 Minuten zu Fuß erreichbar. Das dazugehörige Restaurant und die anschließende Bar ist sehr zu empfehlen.

Große Anlage am Strand

Das Resort ist recht gross und bietet Unterkünfte verschiedener Kategorie. Campen, Backpacker, Hotel, Ferienwohnung und Ferienhaus. Wir hatten ein riesiges Zimmer mit zwei Doppelbetten und haben dort mit zwei Erwachsenen und zwei kleinen Kindern geschlafen, mit Küche und Balkon, direkt am Pool.

Der Strand ist sehr schön, weitere Restaurants und einen Supermarkt gibt es im Nachbarort St. Francis Bay.
