99 guests' feedbackIt was absolutely lovely. The views were amazing. The service was great and so was the communication. The beds were very comfortable. We felt very safe and the few people we did bump into walking past were very friendly. The only sad part was that we didn't get to spend more time there. We went up for a wedding so only really slept there, then had to leave again to go home. We would definitely refer friends to go. And we will be going back again. Thank you for making our stay a good one.
Location is very good and the house is very well furnished.
It was amazing. We loved it.
It is very cosy and neat. Very friendly hosts and they are accommodating. Will definitely stay there if we are in the area again!
The location is of course amazing. The view is beautiful. Although the house is no longer new, it is very well looked after. Apartment was very very neat and clean. Slept wonderfully on good beds. We were a group of 5 adults and maybe 1 bathroom for so many guests is not always convenient. However, we managed very well and enjoyed it immensely. Both the owner and the wife were very friendly and helpful. All arrangements are communicated well in advance and there are no uncertainties. Very professionally handled. Thank you very much again.
Cottage is upgraded and more beautiful than the photos. Nice holiday home with everything you need in it. Quiet surroundings and children can still walk to the park.
Thank you Sandra for your kindness, the updates on that extra thick fog and weather and the load shedding schedules.
We would definitely recommend the Dut Hut. Amazing unit, everything one needs. Excellent views. No problems, can highly recommend.
The accommodation is extremely comfortable and all household appliances are available. The view is top notch. Sandra was extremely accommodating and spared nothing to facilitate our stay.
Fireplace was lovely in the cold, wet weather. Nature and sea view from veranda and rooms is beautiful. We had a great time and grown boys enjoyed the DStv! Would definitely recommend Dut Hut. Thank you Sandra for your kindness.
Our visit was incredibly nice and we enjoyed everything very much with the excellent view of the beach. Really enjoyed the cottage and would visit again anytime. Thank you very much again.
The fireplace was a bonus especially with the rain on our arrival.
Property needs to be updated and some maintenance needs to be done. Also, the whole house needs a good steam clean and furniture and linen need some freshening up.
We will definitely visit Dut Hut again and recommend to family and friends.
It was a wonderful experience and we and our elderly parents enjoyed it very much. Everything was neat and clean. We were able to relax wonderfully and slept well and rested after a long drive. We would definitely recommend this place. Sandra was a very pleasant person to deal with and made it as convenient as possible for us by turning on the lights etc. Wonderful experience. Thank you very much.
The house was excellently furnished. It was neat, clean and everything we needed. The scenery and surroundings were breathtaking. I will definitely use it again.
There was everything in the house. We enjoyed the time very much. Thank you.
We got an update every day about the loadshedding schedule and could plan our day accordingly. The washing machine and dishwasher were an added bonus. Herolds Bay is a lovely place to holiday.
It's in a quiet neighborhood with only a house on one side, the other side is fields. Heroldsbaai has a beautiful beach where you can still see and pick up shells. Had a great time.
Ons as vriende het ons geniet en sal enige tyd weer kom.
Ek is mal oor gasheer en vrou. Vir ons ligte kom regmaak en my gerus gestel oor veiligheid. Ek het probleem gehad dat ek my gestremde seun glad nie kon stort nie - en moes elke dag alternatief kry vir hom. Daar was nie swartsakke vir voorsiening om alle asblikkies leeg te maak nie. Ook om self beddegoed af te trek en dan stand van kussings te ervaar was nie vir my lekker. Mooi view - maar nie weer opsie vir my.
Thoroughly enjoyed it. Would recommend anytime.
Dut Hut was nicely furnished and comfortable. The view is fantastic and we had a great stay!
My friends and I don't mind going back for another vacation there. The house is close to the beach and hiking trails are awesome to take. The only downfall is that we were not made aware of the small shop in the vicinity for the bare necessities, which led us to driving to George CBD every time.
Sandra received us very kindly and everything in the house was clean and tidy.
Herolds Bay is one of the top 3 most beautiful coastal towns in South Africa. Truly a wonderful place to vacation.
The place is very neat and very nice view.
Can mention: Gas for heater was empty, bedrooms very cold. Not extra black bags in drawer as per owner's instructions on litter disposal. Dishwasher handy but not washing/working thoroughly, tried several 'cycles'. We had a nice walk - might add, walking route as recommended to Heroldsbaai swimming beach can only be reached at low tide - had to turn around. Don't think gas bottle in kitchen for stove/oven is according to regulations - must be outside the house for safety.
The place is value for money but the kitchen goods need attention, pots and pans badly rusted, cutlery not up to standard, braai facilities need attention. Bring your own barbecue grill. The fireplace is a winner! We will rent the place again, just prepare better next time.
Person looking after place and responsible for the place was incompetent but owner was very nice and considerate.
Very neat place, kindly received and made to feel welcome, we will go again.
Dut Hut is a very cute place. We were very hospitably received by a spontaneous woman Helena. Her passion for Herolds Bay is incredible. It's probably my favorite place I've ever vacationed. Lots of great things to do close to Herolds Bay. The scenery is breathtaking.
Was a lovely place worth a visit. Sorry about the bath and shower in one. But it was also a nice place.
Dut Hut met all our expectations and more. I wanted a place where I could sit on the balcony and have a view of the ocean and just relax. The views at Dut Hut are truly amazing and you wake up to the sound of the waves and when you go sleep at night. The accommodation was clean and neat and had everything that you needed. The dishwasher and washing machine was also very handy. Helena was absolutely amazing. She kept us informed daily with regards to any changes and really made us feel so welcome. I loved the peacefulness and serenity of this place. Will definitely come back.
We were received very kindly. The residential unit is neat and well equipped. Slept well! The location is excellent with the most beautiful view imaginable. I can highly recommend it. We are already planning our next visit!
Nice view. Have fun.
The house is a detached house at Heroldsbaai Heights. The house was very neat and clean upon arrival. Amenities such as hot water, dishwasher and washing machine are all pluses. Helena made an extra effort to let us know daily when there is loadshedding and also about activities in the area. Had a great time and would definitely go back again, would recommend the place wholeheartedly.
Excellent accommodation, very neat and quiet environment. Unit was very neat and clean and the treats left for us in the unit were not only a surprise but something you don't find everywhere. The hospitality and concern of Helena and help and advice with anything you ask, is only nice if you are a bit strange in the area.
Dut Hut was sparkling clean and very comfortably equipped. The dishwasher was particularly handy. Helena, the hostess was lovely and very helpful. The fireplace, gas heater and lovely bedding made the house cosy. Panoramic sea views from the living room and bedrooms are breathtaking. It was wonderful to go to sleep every night and wake up every morning with the sound of the sea in one's ears. The house is conveniently located. Only a few minutes from the airport and beach. It is also very private and unspoilt with a rich bird life. We will not stay anywhere else if we visit the Garden Route again and will recommend Dut Hut to everyone.
The view of the sea visible around the house was beautiful. There is a fireplace and electric blanket for the cold. The house was very clean and tidy. Definitely worth it.
Very satisfied. Good value for money.
Dut Hut is a beautiful wooden house perfectly located in Herolds Bay.
We will definitely be back. Stunning place, clean and fully equipped with everything. Will recommend Dun Hut.
The house is tidy and the lady who welcomed us with key was very nice and hospitable.
Very nice, comfortable and simple place. Fireplace definitely made a huge difference. Excellent view.
It was a real relaxing time. House is beautifully furnished. Didn't lack anything. Time was just too short. Will definitely use Dut Hut again. Value for money.
I love the peaceful little house in the most beautiful beach town ever. The view is fantastic. Helena is wonderful and everything was laid out perfectly for us. Highly recommend for people who crave tranquility in a hectic life. Thank you Dut Hut, you put the peace back in my soul.
We slept a little late to find a place but Charlotte was happy to help us. Helena is a fantastic hostess and really goes the extra mile. Dut Hut is fully equipped. It's quiet, close to everything and has the most beautiful view. We recommend it to anyone visiting the Garden Route!
Dut Hut is a very comfortable house with a beautiful view. It is fully equipped, has a cozy braai area and I would recommend it anytime.
We had a wonderful stay even though we had to spend most of the time next to the tennis courts. Clean, tidy and spacious accommodation for a family. The place has everything you need, the gas heater was a bonus for the cold evenings.
Pleasant accommodation, clean and neat, all of the necessary facilities, suitable for children, complete DStv, communication from agent was excellent, and felt safe. Enjoyed the nature. Will visit again.
I would definitely recommend Dut Hut. It is comfortable, neat, clean and has a beautiful view.
Thank you very much for a very nice stay and beautiful house with a wonderful view. Was worth it.
Everything was nice, but the fact that we had to go out at 10:00 ... I think we should've been able to leave at 5 o'clock. The DStv was also switched off when we woke up and that was around 8 o'clock ─ far from going home.
See rating.
Uitstekende plekkie baie ideaal geleë. Die skottelgoedwasser en wasmasjien (alhoewel nie gebruik) 'n wonderlike toevoeging. Uiters vriendelike en behulpsame dame (Helena) wat vooraf die sleutel vir ons uitgesit het en gereeld met ons in kontak was tydens ons verblyf. Het al ons verwagtinge oortref en kan dit definitief aanbeveel. Die Dut Hut gaan ons definitief weer sien.
They kept us posted on our booking. Everything was ready for us when we arrived. A good experience, will definitely visit again.
Dut Hut's service was of excellent quality - thank you very much for that! We recommend them anytime if you are looking for tranquility with a finominal sea view. The fireplace was truly a hit during the cold weather.
The place to live is exceptional, lovely sea view, safe and the facilities were excellent. The hospitality and welcome of Helena is noteworthy, it contributes to the success of your stay. Dut Hut is definitely recommended by me.
Recommend accommodation for future travelers.
What a beautiful, spacious and tidy place! The service was great from the owner to the hostess, Helena! Everyone was so helpful and friendly. The house was beautifully clean and tidy. There was absolutely nothing that was too short. The view from the deck is breathtaking, we were even treated to schools of dolphins frolicking in the waves! The scenery and bird life around the cottage is beautiful. There is nothing we can complain about. Perfect place for a weekend getaway or even for a longer vacation! We will definitely use Dut Hut again! You were great!
Really a great place with nice big veranda and sea view and was very clean.
Value for your money. House clean and neat. Very relaxing. Will recommend it to anyone that needs a break from city life.
Worked with Helena and she was fantastic, very friendly and explained everything to us well when we got there.
We enjoyed our stay very much, thank you for friendly and helpful host.
We can recommend Dut Hut. It was amazing and we extended our stay with one night.
We will definitely want to visit Dut Hut again. We were satisfied with everything in the house. The view is very nice from the stoep part. Unfortunately for us it rained on Friday and Saturday but it didn't bother us at all. Thank you very much Dut Hut for a nice visit.
Place was tidy and clean. Hostess was very helpful. I will go and relax there again.
Location perfect, service excellent, spot neat and beautiful. Complaints about bed or mattress unfounded, we slept like babies. The agent we dealt with was friendly and helpful. Would recommend the place for a nice quiet holiday or weekend. Helena thank you for your helpfulness and kindness.
Fantastic view and nice stay.
Everything was very clean and the washing machine and dishwasher was a bonus.
A little house almost in the woods and almost in the town while the roar of the sea sounds peacefully below. Friendly hostess who takes our recommendations to heart. If you want tranquility, want to see and hear the sea and don't mind being within walking distance of the sea, this is ideal. Enough space for 6 people comfortably. Cute wooden house with a cozy atmosphere. Furnished well enough.
The mattress in main bedroom is not recommended.
Very nice house, just a little too far from the beach. Some of the pillows in the living room were a bit dirty.
Nice view and quiet at Dut Hut.
Stunning, simple place with unbelievable views. If I can make a suggestion, please provide information on where you can eat, what you can do in the area, etc. And instructions for the TV and DStv - we couldn't figure it out! But the rest was perfect - we can highly recommend it!
See stars.
It was a wonderful, tranquil holiday - everything that you can think of is there.
We had a great stay, breathtaking view. Tidy place, clean linen. Was really nice.
How we loved this little hidden gem! Beautifully located, fully equipped (except for the towels, but we knew this), and very very comfortable. With three bedrooms, a kitchen, sitting and dining area and even a 7th spare bed, there was more than enough room for my parents, my husband, our two small children and I. We are only sorry we stayed only one night and didn't have time to use the braai-area or drive down to the beach.
Could do with air-conditioning.
Comfortable house with a beautiful view of the sea. The fireplace inside is a very nice touch.
Dut Hut was well equipped and spotless upon arrival. Pity there was only an overhead shower, but the nice large shower head made up for it. We were a group of 6 adults and never had a problem with hot water. Lovely ocean view. Very good value for money and I can recommend. Excellent service from LekkeSlaap!
Accommodation was nice clean and tidy. Everything you are looking for was there. Place is beautiful and environment is peaceful.
Thank you very much for a very nice stay, excellent value for money and also located in a very nice place! We will definitely visit Dut Hut again.
Very nice stay. The house is well located. Would love to come again.
Bathroom water leaks all over the floor and out the door and the wood is already rotten on the toilet side. Suggest different bathroom and better toilet for the price. Seen better places for less money and more modern. Television was also switched off on Sunday evening instead of Monday after 10 am View from barbecue balcony very bad, trees too high. The owner of the house apparently lives in Durban. Had to call her to find out where we could get key. Was very unfriendly and demanded that we pay the further R1,200 immediately, otherwise she won't let us. There had been no previous arrangements made regarding this and since I had already paid a R1,200 deposit, I assumed it would usually be paid once we got there. I will never support or recommend this place again.
Incredible location and view, braai deck and fireplace a plus and that's where it ends. The inside of kitchen cabinets very dirty, pots dirty, curtains dirty. The beds, mattresses, bedding, pillows unacceptable to offer to paying guests. My advice to ensure guests come again: take out everything in Dut Hut, paint it out, do something to the inside of cupboards and refurbish the whole place with better quality, luxury furniture. Do not forget about decent mirrors in bedrooms. Dut Hut already has potential, it just needs to be exploited.
Unfortunately we could only stay for one night, but it was such a nice place, we will definitely come again.
Everyone from grandpa to grandson really enjoyed it. Will have to stay longer next time.
Although the weather was cool and rainy, we really enjoyed it and it was comfortable. We can see from previous reviews that a lot of improvements have been made. Cushions can only improve too, then it will be unbeatable.
Lovely accommodation. Neat and clean. Long legged spiders inside the beds in the lounge. Too little toilet paper. Still a nice place. Thank you very much.
Dut Hut has everything you need and more. Everything was beautifully clean and comfortable. We will definitely stay there again.
The people helped us without notice, and really went out of their way to get everything in order.
Light bulbs that don't work. Power plug not working. Feel free to clean cobwebs in corners before arrival. Definitely don't stay longer than one night because mattresses need to be replaced.
Pleasant, clean and beautiful view.
The location and view make up for the lack of proper cutlery and the paper thin mattresses. We had a great time relaxing here. But would not recommend a visit longer than a few days.
