33 La Mer 's response

The view at no 33 La Mer is out of this world.

The balcony is where most of the time is spent scanning the ocean for dolphins, whales, sardines, and the odd ship at night.

Glad you and the family enjoyed your stay.

Uitstekend.

Wel die strand kan bietjie skoner. Veral voor La Mer. Dis reg langs 'n riviermond wat dit nog vuiler maak. Verder geen probleme nie.

Outstanding.

Well the beach could be a little cleaner. Especially before La Mer. It's right next to a river mouth which makes it even dirtier. Other than that, no problems.

Absoluut fantastiese akkommodasie!

Pragtige woonstel, ten volle toegerus. Duursame, kraakvars beddegoed. Asemrowende see-uitsig waar ons gereeld dolfyne en walvisse kon sien. Gabi en personeel baie vriendelik en professioneel. Sal die woonstel hoog kan aanbeveel. Sal beslis weer van die eenheid gebruik maak.

Saligheid.

Ons het so rustige tyd gehad. Kon letterlik net agteroor sit en net self kos maak. Res was vir jou gedoen. Lekkerste vrugte en lekkers met aankoms gekry. Eenheid kan dalk net doen met dakwaaiers en 'n nuwe klererakkie en strandsambreel.

Bliss.

We had such a peaceful time. Could literally just sit back and just cook myself. Rest was done for you. Received the most delicious fruit and sweets on arrival. Unit could do with roof fans and a new clothes rack and beach umbrella.

Was teleurgesteld in eenheid. Die uitsig is wonderlik.

Baie Mooi ligging en see uitsig. Eenheid kort lugversorgers, kan nie slaap in aand met die hitte nie. Geen dakwaaiers, net staanwaaiers wat verskriklik raas. Geen diefwering so kan ook nie venster in aande ooplos nie. Die plek is in werklikheid ook baie kleiner as wat dit op foto's voorkom. My opinie is dit glad nie die geld werd wat per aand gevra word nie. Daar is goedkoper plekke met beter fasiliteite. Meubels in sitkamer is baie ongerieflik om op te sit. As 'n mens R4000 per aand betaal verwag jy darem bietjie meer as wat gebied word. Ek sal beslis nie weer daar boek nie. Baie mooier eenhede in Noordkus vir daai geld. Die personeel daar is 'n ander storie. Hulle diens en vriendelikheid is puik. Dis maar net my opinie. Ander mense sal dalk verskil.

Was disappointed in unit. The view is wonderful.

Very nice location and sea view. Unit lacks air conditioners, can't sleep in evening with the heat. No ceiling fans, just standing fans that make a lot of noise. No anti-theft protection, so can't leave the window open in the evenings either. The place is also much smaller in reality than it appears in photos. In my opinion, it is not at all worth the money that is asked per night. There are cheaper places with better facilities. Furniture in living room is very uncomfortable to sit on. If you pay R4000 per night, you expect at least a little more than what is offered. I will definitely not book there again. Much nicer units in North Coast for that money. The staff there is another story. Their service and friendliness is great. That's just my opinion. Other people may disagree.

Excellent accommodation. Perfect stay.

33 La Mer is a fantastic accommodation. We would definitely book there again. We loved the extra personal touches like fruit basket, eggs, milk and teas and coffees which made it a five star establishment. Also loved that washing could be done and the apartment was so clean and beautifully decorated. Exactly like the photos. No disappointment. We had the best view of the ocean. Gabi was amazing, her hospitality and professional service was of highest standard. It was so good to have someone welcome you when you arrive. Really five star accommodation.

Sadly it has no air con and very noisy fans which make for a very restless night's sleep.

Excellent establishment.

We have high standards and are very picky on were we choose to stay. 33 La Mer is an excellent establishment. The apartment is furnished to high standards with all the luxuries we are use to. The view from the balcony is gorgeous - see view every day, all day. We would most definitely recommend the unit and most certainly return for another visit.

A lovely, modern, well equipped apartment with a stunning view.

A lovely, modern, well equipped apartment with a stunning view and easy access to the beach. Everything in the apartment is of good quality from the crockery and cutlery to the linen. Le Che' and the cleaning staff offer an excellent service. The only complaints are: In the main bedroom the mirror is not above the dressing table and the hairdryer cord is too short making it difficult to dry your hair either in front of the mirror or at the dressing table. There's also no stool for the dressing table. Le Che' kindly provided complimentary tea/coffee, sweets and some salty crackers which was most appreciated.

Dit was vir seker een van die beste vakansieverblyf wat ons nog ooit bespreek het. Alles wat nodig is om dit 5 ster verblyf te maak was daar.

Dit was sulke vriendelike ontvangs. Ongelooflike, vriendelike, deeglike skoonmakers. Ons sal vir seker weer hier bly en vir almal wat die suidkus toe kom vertel van die netjiese verblyf. Welgedaan. Dis nou gasvryheid met 'n pragtige see-uitsig!

Onbeskryflik asemrowend.

Hierdie was ons tweede keer by La Mer 33. Die uitsig is onbeskryflik! Die kompleks is baie veilig en rustig. Die eenheid is ongelooflik skoon en netjies. Die skoonmaakdienste was daagliks daar en behulpsaam en vriendelik. Ons beplan reeds ons 3de trippie hierheen. Die enigste voorstel wat ons wil maak, is dat die bed in die hoofslaapkamer se matras dalk vervang word. Die “springs” maak mens seer soms. Maar dis al!

Indescribably breathtaking.

This was our second time at La Mer 33. The view is indescribable! The complex is very safe and quiet. The unit is unbelievably clean and tidy. The daily cleaning service was very helpful and friendly. We're already planning our third trip. The only suggestion we'd like to make is for the main bedroom's mattress to be replaced. The springs sometimes hurt you. But that's it!

Dit was fantasties!

Vandat ons aangekom het by 33 La Mer, het ons geweet dit gaan 'n wonderlike vakansie wees. Die eenheid is baie netjies, skoon, perfek geleë en baie veilig. Ons het 'n ekstra dag aangebly, want dit was net so ongelooflik lekker en mooi. Die patio is onbeskryflik, en die uitsig is asemrowend. Ons het dag en nag veilig gevoel, Marna en Burger was baie vriendelik en het onmiddellik geantwoord as ons iets wou uitvind ens. Van al die vakansieplekke by die see wat ons al besoek het, was hierdie vir seker die beste ene en dit is ons nuwe vakansieplek van nou af. Die diens van LekkeSlaap is uitmuntend en ons gebruik hulle vir al ons vakansieverblyf. Ons kan nie uitgepraat raak oor hoe wonderlik ons vakansie was nie. Baie baie dankie! As daar 10 sterre was, het ek die plekkie 10 gegee.

It was fantastic!

From the moment we arrived at 33 La Mer, we knew it would be a wonderful holiday. The unit is very neat, clean, and safe with a perfect location. We stayed for an extra day, because it was so unbelievably nice and beautiful. The patio is incredible and the view is unbelievable. We felt safe all the time, day and night. Marna and Burger were very friendly and answered us immediately if we had questions about anything. Of all the holiday spots by the sea we have ever stayed at, this one is most certainly the best and from now on, it's our new spot. LekkeSlaap's service was also excellent and we use them for all our accommodation needs. We can't stop talking about how absolutely wonderful our holiday was. Thank you! If there were 10 stars, I would have given this little spot a 10.

It's been an absolute pleasure dealing with LekkeSlaap. From my very first inquiry, staff were friendly and efficient. 33 La Mer was well kept, clean and there was absolutely no need for us to go out and get anything extra. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back again!
