156 guests' feedbackIt was a good stay. Clean, tidy and central. Everything you need is available in the unit. I would only recommend you take your fan with you. It was very hot in the evening.
See stars.
There were only unwanted guests who made a lot of noise one night throughout the night. At least the host sorted it out after we complained. Rules say no music and noise, and they hung out and drank all night until the next morning, and had guests stick in a van next to us and walk back and forth through our place and tease kids in front of us through the glass door the dogs .
The stay was perfect, the location was ideal for our trip and close to the beach. The only problem was the cockroaches.
Had a great stay, good location and facilities.
Yes. Although it is very cramped, it does not look at all like the photos on the ad. The place needs a good cleaning. The only bright spot was the nice hot water.
Nice and peaceful place, just no information on the place if you are a first-timer.
Owners got someone to come look.
Colin is a great host. Friendly and even directed us to some places in the area that we didn't know about. Would definitely recommend Barnacles.
The accommodation is basic, but all you need for a quick weekend by the sea. We had a good time fishing, we could rinse off outside and have a nice barbecue inside the house.
Colin is a great host and very friendly. The flatlet is perfect for a couple. Just big enough and everything that you could need. You have sea views and you can hear the sea in the distance. We saw wales from day 1 and it was amazing to see so many all the time. The beach is within walking distance. Will be definitely back again for sure. P.S. the beds are firm but super comfy.
The apartment was neat, clean and comfortable. We were within walking distance of the main beach and restaurant. Will definitely book there again and can recommend the stay.
Unit is perfect for 2 persons. Equipped with everything needed and small open plan kitchen was perfect for our needs. The host was very friendly and willing to do everything in his power to make our stay as pleasant as possible.
Colin was always available to hear if there were any problems and just to pop in to ask how we were doing or if we needed anything.
It was a lovely weekend getaway for us, good value for the fair price and the place was very well equipped with everything we needed. Very friendly people. Thank you very much for the nice stay.
Problems with owner sorted out.
There are no car guards, beggars or people harassing you on the beach. Someone should just advertise where one can buy fresh fish. The cod was delicious.,
Close to beach and sea visible from apartment. Nice barbecue place.
Apart from a very small kitchen, we had a great time. Colin was friendly and made us feel welcome. Witsand on the whole we will visit again. Hope this time it's bigger fish.
When we got there at 13:00 Colin was busy assigning our unit to other people. This is after I confirmed with him myself as well.
Colin was a very good host, always there to help and so friendly! It's a real holiday home, everything you need, but not extravagant. Walking distance from the beach. We will definitely stay there again.
Not much to do.
All problem is the space of the unit is a bit small.
It was nice and peaceful. Very nice stay!
It was beyond our expectations. All rooms were neat and tidy. Kitchen is well equipped with all the necessities. Warm water at all times. Surrounding area and views are spectacular. It's safe and "the silence was deafening" at times. Our host was amazing. Thank you Collin, we shall certainly recommend Barnacles to family and friends and shall certainly return soonest.
It was our first time at Barnacles. We were received very kindly. Colin is a fantastic host. He went out of his way to make us feel welcome and was very helpful with any queries and requests we had. Unit is well equipped, very neat and clean. Bed is very comfortable. We will definitely stay at Barnacles again and recommend it to anyone looking to relax in a peaceful, clean and friendly environment. Thanks again, Colin, for being the perfect host.
Collin is a lovely laid back host. He was very accessible via sms before we arrived, promptly answering any questions. The flat is small, but for the price it is spot on. So if you want space this place is not for you. It has everything you can need for your stay. However, if you are picky about certain kitchen essentials i.e knife, potato peeler, pack your own. Also, the flat has an electric stove. If you want fast, bring gas burner with. The flat is also a bit cold, so bring slippers for your feet. Outside braai is lovely! If you want luxury then go find a more expensive place. On location you can't fault Barnacles. Walking distance (and I'm lazy) to blue flag beach, the tidal pool and Anchorage Restaurant. Really loved our stay!
Was only in Witsand for two days. Our stay at The Barnacles was very close to the beach and ideal for two people. The accommodation was neat and clean and very affordable, good value for money.
We had a really good stay at the Barnacles. Colin was very helpful. Will definitely go again.
We would definitely like to spend a break there again.
We stayed in Jolly 2 which is very comfortably furnished for 2 people. Everything we needed was there and the two bonuses were that I could pull my vehicle directly in front of Jolly 2's sliding door and that there was also a lovely built-in braai area right by the door. It just made everything so much more convenient. From there we could walk to the sea which is very close but far enough from the public car park that we couldn't be bothered by anyone. In terms of privacy, Jolly 2 completely met our requirements. There are sufficient curtains to draw if one finds it necessary and in terms of safety, Jolly 2 is located in such a way that one does not feel threatened or uncomfortable in any way.
Nice stay and recommend.
Very neat and clean, friendly assistance! Everything one needs.
Ideal for a couple or small, family nice and cozy and peaceful with a pleasant host on site.
Accommodation met essential requirements including kitchen essentials.
You won't find better value for money in Witsand than at Barnacles. Colin the host was very helpful and friendly. The apartment had everything one could need and the TV with Netflix and YouTube was perfect for keeping our 6 year old busy at night. We were walking distance from the beach as well as a nice restaurant on the sea front. Would definitely recommend Barnacles.
Very friendly and hospitable. Unity was ready when we got there.
Colin is very helpful in recommending places to visit and telling more about the town and its history, will definitely go back again.
The unit is comfortable and one does not need much more, the TV with Netflix in a pleasant bonus for the little ones. It is also located very close to the beach. If I could make one recommendation it would be that attention should be paid to the fact that the cutlery must be clean. We had to wash some of the cutlery before we could use it, but that's not the end of the world. There is also no tongs, but other than that it was really, really nice. Colin is very pleasant and received us kindly, he also allowed us on the last day to leave later to spend the rest of the day there. I would definitely stay there again.
Nice, clean and quiet.
Friendly, helpful, hospitality.
I found it an expensive option for a single person stayover. It was a frustration that two emails and an SMS to Colin remained unanswered. This affected my travel arrangements. Although I lacked nothing, I am lukewarm about the unit. Light inside was not great and it was a toss up with curtains closed or open at the windows which face to the adjacent property, privacy vs. light. Net curtains could fix that.
Good location, not recommendable in winter, it's very cold.
See stars.
Beautiful sea view.
Quiet, safe place with a view and walking distance from the beach. Nice getaway weekend place with everything you need.
At first we were only going to get away for 4 days, but we had such a good time that we didn't really want to leave and so the break was extended to a whole week. Colin is the perfect host, friendly and helpful. The highlight was the delicious nutritious soup he treated us to when the power was out and we couldn't cook ourselves. If our health and finances allow it, we will definitely visit Barnacles again.
Small but perfect for 2 people. Close to the beach.
Barnacles is a nice cozy place. Beautiful view of the sea. The host is friendly and you get a genuine welcome. It is a neat chalet.
The owner let us take a shower after check out times as we had been fishing the last day early in the morning, that was nice of him.
Area very safe and walking distance from beach. Nice getaway for family.
The property does have another very nice apartment which I saw and would be more happy to try than this one. I will not ever be back to Barnacles.
We stayed on the ground floor with our own braai and the place was clean and tidy. We could see the sea from where we stayed and it is walking distance from sea and restaurant. Also in a safe environment. Colin made us feel welcome and we will definitely stay there again if we go to Witsand.
The apartment was incredibly neat and had everything one could think of. Colin is beautiful and a pleasure to chat with. Thank you very, very much.
Barnacles is a very nice and cosy accommodation within walking distance to the beach. It has a lovely stoep to sit on outside and relax as well as an indoor braai. Host is very welcoming and helpful. It is our second time staying at Barnacles and we will certainly be back.
It was very nice.
We were warmly welcomed. The view is breathtaking. It is a convenient place. I will definitely book there again. The place is very neat. I would recommend it to anyone.
It was a lovely experience and the owner was very friendly and helpful, I would definitely recommend the accommodation. Especially because it is also pet friendly.
Excellent accommodation, definitely the place to rest and relax away form the hustle!
The owner is very friendly and accommodating. Will definitely stay there again.
Worth every cent. Will recommend to all. Wihann fishing charter was not only great but went out of his way to make us feel welcome.
The location is great, accommodation is clean and tidy. Really value for money.
It was nice to stay there and the owner is friendly and helpful. Clean and tidy.
We wanted to "explore" the area this weekend and just have a place to sleep. We didn't want to cook at home and we didn't want to sit at home.
Friendly reception. Clean and tidy. Small, but cuddly. Within walking distance of beach. Will recommend to friends.
Beautiful town. Host was very helpful, and on it. Could hear the ocean from where we were and it's walking distance from the restaurant and main beach. We had a great stay and used it as a basis from which to explore the area. The accommodation had everything you need if you're on holiday. We enjoyed it a lot.
Beautiful, small room with everything you need. Quiet area, beautiful view and nice place to relax with friends.
The host is fantastic and made us feel very welcome. Would recommend Barnacles. Small roof on porch with outside braai for rainy days as a suggestion.
The host is very friendly and down to earth. Nice indoor barbecue which makes it nice and cozy and there is a section that overlooks the sea and can see the whales.
Very friendly people and close to restaurant and sea. Perfect spot.
Having travelled vastly around SA, mostly using self-catering accommodation, there seems to be common shortcomings such as: 1. Shelf in bathroom wide enough to keep toiletries etc.2. Hotplates that don't function optimally. 3. Sufficient hooks for hanging clothes etc. 4 Shower with place to store shampoo etc. Just some things that could greatly improve comfort.
The cottage is quite cramped with only 1 bathroom and toilet for 4 people. The DStv gave many problems and we specifically looked for a place with DStv to watch rugby. Parking for car is next to the house without cover. No cupboard to pack away food in kitchen. A few basic items were missing in the kitchen, such as wooden spoon, only 2 steak knives. We had a great time in Witsand, but were definitely not very happy with the accommodation.
Really enjoyed staying here, very close to the beach. Collin was absolutely amazing and welcomed us and made us feel at home. Will definitely recommend to anyone going to Witsand as the place has everything one needs.
Close to beach, very friendly owner, nice bed and inside braai, all over excellent, will definitely stay there again.
Was a special experience, will definitely visit Witsand again. Everybody is hospitable, friendly and helpful. Roosterkoek at The Woolshed is to die for, very tasty and good service.
The accommodation and living unit were excellent. Recommended for anyone who wants to enjoy tranquility.
We had a great time and Colin was always helpful to sort out any problem.
Very nice place to stay. Thank you.
Thank you for a fantastic weekend and clean, tidy, practical accommodation in Pansy Shell. Good quality linen and bed in master bedroom. Within 1 minute walk from the beach, located on the top floor, so there are some stairs (for if you have difficulty walking). 2 small apartments on the ground floor are the most adorable places I've ever seen, so cute and small and cozy - ideal for a romantic getaway for two, or a nice relaxing weekend for 2, young and old! The apartments are fully equipped with everything you could need. Colin was very helpful, right next to your flat if you need him - yet you have your own privacy. Pansy Shell does not have outdoor barbecue facilities, but a very nice indoor barbecue, charcoal grill available on request! Collin was so lovely and let us have a BBQ at one of the other apartments on the Friday night! (My husband doesn't understand a charcoal grill.) Any suggestions: future planning - maybe a canopy over Pansy Shell's porch with an outdoor grill, then you're 101% ready for any guests! Thanks Collin, see you again one of these days - we still have to go swimming in the pool next time!
The Jolly flatlet is quite small, the toilet didn't work perfectly and the one light in the kitchen/lounge area out of order. Also, the kettle doesn't switch off automatically. But overall we had a fantastic weekend. Colin was very hospitable and friendly and the accommodation was clean upon arrival, equipped with all that you need!
This affordable, compact 1 bedroom apartment pleasantly surprised us. It was extremely clean and tidy, well equipped and private. The owner, Colin, was very friendly and helpful and went out of his way to make us feel welcome. We will definitely visit there again.
The flat was fully equipped with everything you would need. Clean and comfortable bed. Fresh towels and Colin is the perfect host.
Barnacles in Witsand is neat, safe and well located. The owner Colin is friendly, helpful and understands the hospitality industry.
Barnacles has everything one needs, it was clean and comfortable. Me and my 2 daughters aged 13 and 5 enjoyed it immensely. Walking distance from the swimming beach, most beautiful view for the sunrise. Soft bed, enough closets, big shower, no shortcomings.
Thanks Colin! Has a great stay!
Colin received us very well and is very helpful. Will go out of his way to make your stay enjoyable.
We really had a wonderful stay, close to beach, many whales to watch, and a most accommodating host. Thank you will visit soon again.
We had a great stay at Barnacles and will certainly recommend it again. It's comfortable and clean and very close to the beach.
The unit is very neat and has all the necessary utensils. Soap and shampoo can be added to the shower, bathroom.
Will Witsand recommend at any time for those who want to get away from everything. Visitors just have to fully equip themselves with all that is necessary for their stay. Local purchasesare a bit on the expensive side.
Lovely safe, peaceful spot to recharge.
Was lovely. Neat. Lovely warm, strong flow water for the shower.
It was lovely to hear the ocean in the background and my husband and I would definitely book here again.
We had a lovely time at Barnacles. The flats are smaller than anticipated, but the bed was comfortable and the shower was amazing. Being 400 m from the beach and having the perfect view of the sea and the whales was a bonus. Colin is friendly and helpful.
A lovely gentleman host unpretentious and solid. Very accommodating. Private. Comfortable beds, adequately equipped. Lovely, quiet environment. We'll be back for sure.
We really enjoyed the peaceful surroundings. Good reception by the owner. Will definitely visit the place again.
Barnacles offers everything one needs for a peaceful getaway. Our apartment was spacious and very tidy. Colin is a very friendly host and he can give a lot of advice about the area and things to do in and around Witsand. The view from the upper apartment is beautiful. We will definitely go back there again.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Witsand and Barnacles. Many thanks for a well-equipped and very clean and tidy apartment. The sea is incredibly beautiful. We thoroughly enjoyed our walks on the beach.
Idyllically beautiful near the sea with a perfect view of the sunrise.
The host makes a lot of effort.
Would make use of this accommodation again anytime. Was wonderful.
Barnacles is excellent. It has everything you'd need and then some to relax and renew your energies. The wagtail birds come right into the apartment. So peaceful!
We had a great stay. The owners gave us a bigger room than the one we paid for and they were very friendly and helpful
Colin is very friendly and helpful. Had a great time and will go there again in the future.
Host Colin very kind and busy. Very neat.
See stars.
We enjoyed the rest and nature was beautiful.
Good location, spacious, practically equipped for comfort and minimal decor which was great. Very spacious shower.
The apartment is cleverly appointed and we had a good stay.
Me, Peter and our dog children enjoyed it so much, peaceful weekend away to just relax. Accommodation beautiful and ocean view breathtaking. Would recommend you to all my friends. Thank you.
Very nice if you are not going to be in a place to stay all day. Lovely outside seating area.
We had a great stay at Barnacles. The flat is perfect for couples and there is everything that you need. The place was clean and tidy. Although not on the sea, you have distant views and you can hear the waves crashing on the beach, which is less than 5 minutes walk away. The owner, Colin, was also very friendly and helpful. We will definitely go back there again when in the area.
The owner was very friendly and helpful. At the kick-off, he explained all the necessary dos and don'ts to us and also informed us about activities in Witsand. The unit was adequate for us, tidy and everything was in working order. Truly value for money.
Very peaceful and quiet off season.
We had a great stay at this peaceful little place. The scenery is beautiful, but unfortunately the weather wasn't in our favour. A stay during summer would be preferable. There isn't a lot of shops and activities.
Thank you for a lovely weekend.
We had a great stay. Would recommend it to friends and family.
Neat accommodation. Courteous hosts. Very affordable, just a stone's throw from the beach.
The Jolly 2 is a bit small for 2 or more people but the hospitality of the host makes up for it. Everything is comfortably furnished, neat and clean. Dstv Compact was available with good reception. Will stay there again if the opportunity presents itself.
Enough space for two people.
There was no problem. Just can't sit outside. The sun comes up in the morning and then everything has to stay closed, can't sit in a closed place all day. Will have to put on some type of sunscreen.
We had an incredibly nice stay. Very pleasant place and host. Will definitely stay there again and can recommend it to everyone. Very clean and tidy, close to main beach and eatery.
Very nice place. Friendly, owner and full DStv for kids.
Colin, the host was very friendly, from reception to our departure. It's a very nice place, we even saw some whales from the cottage (it was amazing). What makes it even nicer is that it is so safe and walking distance from the sea, to sum it up = it was very nice!
The apartment is very convenient, except for the shower. There needs to be a space for soap dishes and so forth in the shower and the bathroom has a normal window which makes it uncomfortable seeing as how the hallway next to it is a thoroughfare and is open to the house above. The microwave's turntable's glass is broken. The second place was very pleasant. We were upgraded to a bigger unit at the beginning.
Beautiful fully equipped accommodation. Pleasant friendly reception.
I enjoyed the weekend and will go back again.
Highly recommended. Owner very hospitable. Felt at home and safe. Will definitely visit the same place again.
A warm welcome, safe, homely feeling with all facilities we needed. Thank you so much Mark and Leonard.
Will visit Barnacles again anytime.
We had a great time. The place was clean, tidy and just right for us.
And we planned our getaway accordingly. However, our disappointment was great when, upon arrival, other guests were mistakenly placed in our unit. The situation was unpleasant and the end result was that after more than 3 hours of travel to Witsand we had to drive around for more than an hour while the unit could be sorted out. This put a damper on our getaway and first visit to Witsand.
It was a nice place to sleep and comfortable and CLEAN.
The place is fantastically set up for 2 people and you don't have to look for anything and nothing is in your way. Clean, tidy warm place and an even warmer and very friendly owner. I will recommend the place to my family and friends anytime! The sea/beach is a stone's throw away. When you stand on that porch, you see the people walking, fishing and playing on the beach. We really enjoyed it. And then Colin, the owner, makes it even more comfortable and enjoyable by chatting with you often and many times giving advice on where to go for the day. Thanks for the reference to entertainment! It was an experience.
Had a peaceful 3 days in Witsand with sea view accommodation and a two minute walk from the biggest sandy beach I have ever seen. Really friendly host in Colin who is a walking encyclopedia about the town if you are willing to ask.
Although the place is small, it is a very nice place to visit! Would recommend to others anytime! Host was very friendly and helpful.
The place and its people are a joy to visit!
Thank you very much, Colin and Mark. You guys made our stay comfortable and more! Will definitely be back.
I had a great time in Witsand and my stay was very nice. I really enjoyed the tranquility. The view was amazing and the whales could be seen from my living room. I would recommend it to someone who just needs a getaway.
Nice for 2 people, also nice close to the beach. The shops don't keep a lot of stock, so just shop in Swellendam. Nice break!
Colin was very helpful and friendly.
Walking distance from the sea. Tidy. Very small, but ideal for 2 people who want to get away for a weekend.
We had a wonderful stay at Barnacles. Colin is very helpful. The place is very neat, everything you need and, moreover, nice and close to the sea. We will definitely go again!
The apartment has a beautiful view of the sea and is very centrally located within walking distance of the swimming beach, estuary and restaurant. The kitchen equipment is very modern especially the convection oven was a bonus! The apartment was very clean and the area is particularly safe and quiet. We will definitely stay there again! Thanks Colin for a lovely long weekend!
The accommodation is very neat and clean, and we will definitely use it again.
See the stars below.
Very comfortable and just what we needed.
Nice quiet and safe environment. Neat and would definitely recommend.
Basic accommodation nice and close to the beach. Clean and tidy with everything you need. Friendly host. Definitely going to visit there again on a weekend.
Stayed at Barnacles for three nights, exploring Witsand and the surrounding area. It is a compact apartment, but clean and tidy and very well equipped. Will definitely stay there again.
The owner went out of his way to make you feel at home and ensure you enjoy your time there.
We were well received; the people are very friendly in Witsand. It is very quiet and peaceful there, and we could sleep with peace of mind without any hustle and bustle. Lulu, the owner's puppy, was too cute; She stopped by every day. It was simply fantastic and I would recommend it to friends anytime.
We had a lovely, peaceful stay without interference from the hosts but a lot of helpfulness from them. They did our washing when they heard we wanted to go out for the morning but had a lot of washing to get done (which was sweet)! Everything was provided for a comfortable stay and best of all to us was the top sheet!! How I detest sleeping under a duvet only!
See the stars below.
A little smaller than we expected, but that wasn't a problem. Although our stay was a bit stormy (the weather), the owner was very helpful.
