  22 April 2018

  "Fantastic views over sea and harbour from the sundeck. Going to sleep with sound of waves breaking 50 metres away and waking to rising sun over the sea. Great basic clean accomodation perfect for the family. Will be back."

  21 June 2017

  "We enjoyed our stay at Harbour Cottage, apart from being very cold weather, it was relaxing. Thanks. Tina Mari was a great host. We will go again, but in summer."

• "Fresh fish"

  23 April 2017

  "Construction next door does disturb your mornings. Especially the ground shaking drilling. But if you plan on getting an early start I should bother you. Fresh fresh fish on the braai awesome. Bought a few fresh off the boats."

• "Difficult Steep Access"

  16 November 2015

  "We only stayed for 1 of the the 5 days we had paid for. I had emailed the owner inquiring about access to the place as our large dogs cannot manage steep steps. I was NOT informed there are about 30 extremely steep steps up to the place which were lethal when wet. Anyone with heart or joint conditions would also have difficulty..This is a poor photo of the place as the main attraction is the stunning view from the deck.<div>We were very disappointed that we had to waste time finding somewhere else to stay as well as losing money as we would not have booked here had we been properly informed .</div><div><br /></div><div>Establishments Response:</div><div><br /></div><div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;">I am very sorry that you feel you had a bad experience with Harbour Cottage.</div><div style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;">We did communicate per e-mail and your questions on dogs being able to cope with the steps, I did confirm that they will easily go up and down. I have had many visitors with dogs, small, old and and large (although never as big as yours).</div><div style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;">Never ever did I have any complains, but I respect your review and feelings. Regarding the 30 steps, they were designed with flat walk ways between the 3 set of steps and no tiles to prevent possible slips. Handrails are also present to make it easier to reach the Cottage.</div><div style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;">If I receive an enquiry about the steps regarding guests of age, I immediately explain and also send photos. I did ask you if I need to send through photos, you did not request any.</div><div style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;">You arrived the Saturday, and on the Monday morning you only sent a sms to inform me that you have already left the Cottage. If you were not satisfied with your accommodation, I would have gladly found you other accommodation.</div><div style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;">On losing money, I am also very sorry about that, but I provide accommodation for human beings and permitting guests to bring their pets, I see it as a bonus. My main objective is satisfying my guestss needs and not that of their pets.</div><div style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;">Still Bay greetings.</div><div style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.9px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #333333; background-color: #fefef0;"><span style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;">Tine-Mari</span></div></div><div><br /></div>"

• "What a great place"

  17 October 2015

  "We had a wonderful 2 days there. Tini-Mari is a supper, friendly person who welcomes you with a smile and ensures you have everything you need. The cottage is well equipped with a practical lounge/kitchen, comfortable beds and great out door furniture on a fabulous deck overlooking the harbour. There is a very good sea food restaurant in walking distance from the cottage in the harbour area. Watch the fishing boats launch and return with their catch from the cottage deck then go down and buy fish fresher than fresh. We can't recommend this place enough and we will certainly be back."

  "What a delightful place! Was most impressed. The location is fabulous. Tine-mare is a warm, generous hostess. We will be back!"

• "Niel South Africa"

  04 May 2015

  "I would recommend this place with confidence, neat and clean with excellent views."

• "Breathtaking view"

  19 April 2014

  "If I have to find a drawback, it has to be the steep staircase to negotiate with luggage, but the unrestricted view from the deck and all the rooms, more than compensates. The unit is well equiped and spacious. One of the places I would love to go back to."

• "Great View"

  28 March 2014

  "Tine-Marie was very friendly & helpful and it was great to meet Ebony the dog. Excellent spot overlooking the harbour. Indoor and outdoor braai facilities. Enjoyed our stay but unlucky with the weather this time."

• "Lekker"

  "Ons was 'n gesin van vyf. Die Harbour Cottage was baie gerieflik en ons het baie lekker gebly vir die naweek. Die uitsig oor die see is pragtig en ons het dit baie geniet. Dankie Tina- Mari ons verblyf was lekker...gaan weer so maak."
