"Average"

We chose De Ware Jacob based on 3 factors: 1) Jacuzzi - we prefer a jacuzzi over a hot tub, but will settle for a hot tub that works effectively. 2) Free WiFi - we like to watch a movie before going to bed. 3) Location - we wanted to be within walking distance of the sea. 1) Jacuzzi: We were in unit C. The hot tub is a complete fail. Apart from the fact that the hot tub takes 3h20min and 3 bags of wood before it is hot enough, there is no chimney. So the smoke blows where the wind takes it. When we were there the wind blew it in our face. So after 10 minutes of sitting with burning eyes and tears we were "smoked" out of the hot tub. 2) The WiFi is only in the common area, not in the bedrooms. We only found out after we paid the deposit. When my husband tried to download a movie in the common area the internet was too slow. So the WiFi really shouldn't be listed as a feature at all. 3) I can't say for sure how far the nearest beach is, because we ended up doing our beach walk in Langebaan. The owner is very nice and helpful and the property is particularly beautiful, especially the garden. But small things could improve: we didn't have a bread plate or water glasses in our unit. As we started breakfast, we realized the gas was out. Chris replaced it within 20 minutes, but you have a checklist before checking in new guests. Tissues are not a big expense, there were no tissues or kitchen towels in the unit. At the end of the weekend it felt a bit like we had gone to spend the night at a friends house. Except that we paid R2400 for it. If the hot tub worked as it should then we probably forgot about the other smaller things. And so, if a hot tub is not a priority for you, this accommodation is fanatical. But don't book it for the hot tub.

"A romantic getaway with my partner for my birthday!"

My husband and I were looking for a quiet, romantic getaway for my birthday and after much searching we found De Ware Jacob on LekkeSlaap. We were very impressed with De Ware Jacob on the website, which was very user-friendly and provided us with beautiful pictures that did not disappoint on arrival. The whole experience was amazing, from the little WhatsApp messages from Ian confirming our booking ahead of time and the update a week before we arrived. He was super attentive to all my questions and his responses were on point. Even with the Covid-19 restrictions, he was very helpful in pointing out the security and safety measures that are taken in order to protect all the guests. On arrival we were met by Chris, who took us into the cottage (we booked Cottage D for 5 nights with its own private wood-burning hot tub). Chris showed us around the cottage and was extremely helpful in assisting us with the gas stove - which neither of us had used before (but it is so easy in hindsight). Our stay was magical. We enjoyed complete privacy. A romantic getaway that was much needed after being locked down for so long. Whilst we didn't venture out too much (mostly because of the weather), we did visit neighbouring towns like Velddrif and Vredenburg. Sadly we didn't make it to Saldanha or Hopefield (which we will definitely be doing in summer - taking advantage of the quad biking on offer). Whilst there, we were advised via WhatsApp that Wednesday night is Pizza Night at De Ware Jacob, whilst we didn't order the pizza as we had arranged to have a potjie that night, they have a wide selection of pizza that is made in their own wood-burning oven on the property, just give them the time you want to collect and dinner is sorted. Another amazing service they offer is a breakfast basket or a braai basket, all of them amazing value for money. We took advantage of the breakfast basket on my birthday and my hubby proudly cooked me a breakfast with the fresh ingredients provided by De Ware Jacob. The personal touches added by Tarryn (a birthday note, fresh little flowers) made the experience that much more special. Whilst there is no internet connection in the cottage, in the common area (pool/entertainment room) you have access to free WiFi which came in super handy when I had to join an impromptu meeting for work. And whilst I was in the meeting, my husband enjoyed the use of the hot tub in the common area. Our experience with Ian, Tarryn and Chris has made a huge impact on us and we would highly recommend booking a cottage at De Ware Jacob. FYI one of the nicest surprises about the cottage (that isn't mentioned anywhere) is the heater as you step out of the shower - amazing feature! Perfect for those cold winter evenings/mornings when you stepping out of your hot shower. If you are looking for an evening with your loved one/s spent around the fire or playing board games and having a laugh whilst been surrounded by the beauty that is Jacobs Bay, then this place is for you! Our cottage offered the luxury that was promised and during our stay became a home away from home. We will be back soon De Ware Jacob, thank you so much for hosting us! This was definitely a 10/10 experience and you have won our hearts over with your amazing welcome and generous hosting. See you soon Ian, Tarryn and Chris!
