82 guests' feedbackOur visit was very nice. Thank you very much.
Safe, clean and tidy, everything you need for a nice long weekend getaway.
There was everything needed to have a comfortable stay. We had a wonderful stay.
We always have a great time!
Everything needed for a weekend.
Beautiful and clean place. Like self-help units. Was safe and affordable. Convenient for larger families.
Stay was extremely nice. The aircon in the bedroom was a bonus as we had a super hot day the weekend. The beds in the bedroom are due for an upgrade though. We could feel the springs and it was very uncomfortable to sleep on. Other than that we enjoyed every moment. Will definitely go back.
Was quiet and needed the rest.
We had a wonderful stay. Will go there again.
This is a great place for big groups of people, especially work trips as they offer separate beds.
We stayed in Kreefie from May 24-27 which was our base for a few days of driving around the West Coast area which I don't know at all. Lobster is very comfortable, small and compact with everything you need, and a man received us with the unit key and gate remote. He explained nicely how the gate works and the WiFi password we could use. The farm environment with animals is beautiful and the premises are well maintained. Nothing to complain about, except maybe just a suggestion that there be clotheslines or a rack made available for wet towels and dishcloths to dry. We will definitely stay there again.
Always good to have a quiet rest after a hard working week.
Stay was great. Location good.
See stars.
Setting in a relaxing atmosphere.
All the facilities we needed were there. The place offers a peaceful atmosphere. It's fun to hear the animal sounds! It's quite close to the sea and also close to supermarkets for when you just want to do your food shopping locally.
Very nice stay. Thank you very much. Many thanks also to Chandre from the website for her quick feedback on availability.
We had a very nice stay. The silence was just what we needed. Our place was very neat and well equipped with everything. The weather was very nice. Spruce was walking distance. We enjoyed it very much. I would recommend Elm Tree Guest Farm.
Great farm life experience. Small details that can be upgraded, such as the cleanliness of the braai grill, outside of the fridge, and the pipe in the shower. Other than that, great place.
Had no contact with the hostess. She answered her phone when some of the people from the other houses were standing in front of our window visiting and drinking by the gate with blaring music @ 10.30pm. It made it unpleasant. Without these factors it will be a pleasant experience. Had no idea about the load shedding schedule. There is a light available, but no WiFi during load shedding.
It was very nice and private.
Yes, we had a nice stay there. It was peaceful with no noise. We suggest the bathroom get a door for privacy. The gate takes a long time to open and close, it was a bit frustrating.
The toilet was very dirty and made a horrible noise once flushed. Opening and closing the bedroom doors were very noisy. The main bedroom had winter sheets in February, and the mattress protector was filthy. Outside light shined into the main bedroom, and the curtains did not block it out. Light switches were faulty - did not switch on (dining room). We specifically enquired whether or not there was a grater; they responded to say their kitchen is fully equipped, but there was no grater, and the knives were not sharp.
The accommodation is as per photos. We only slept over, didn't spend much time. The person who checked us in was very friendly but had no idea about our reservation. We had to show him which place we had booked. The place is neat, but could be better.
If I go to the sea, I want to be able to see the sea and also walk along the sea. None of that I could do at Elm Tree Guest Farm.
Pleasantly surprised, as the animals on the small holding added so much to the value. Well kitted and equipped chalets, lacking any non-essentials which allows one to travel lightly. Each room comes with free WiFi too, very much appreciated.
The accommodation and destination were in line with our expectations.
We had a great time and will definitely stay there again in the future.
If you want a peaceful getaway without any noise or just the noise of cars, Elm Tree Guest Farm is definitely the place. Just being able to sit outside on the porch with your little meat on the coals is one of the most calming moments I've ever experienced. They provide everything. I would definitely recommend Elm Tree Guest Farm.
Because everyone expects not such a nice. We loved it. Even the men thought it is not such a nice to stay, but they were impressed with everything. And the kids, they enjoyed the animals. So to everyone, we had an amazing time. Thank you.
We will be rebooking soon and will refer to friends and family.
Friendly, peaceful, quiet and pleasant experience.
Very comfortable, neat, clean, nice garden, good people.
Great place, loved it.
Child really enjoyed animals. Cottage very comfortable. Everything is there. Was very, very nice.
Only slept there and did not use any of the other facilities.
Friendly and helpful hostess.
Have rated customer service 3 stars as there is only coffee and sugar. No milk and tea.
Stay was good for 1 night. Safe and nice and quiet. Aircon is a plus in the room.
The help from management was great, thanks to them. It's a quiet area I'm used to. Thank you very much.
Visitors playing loud music next to our chalet. Tank chalet door locks, especially bathroom door, does not lock properly.
The beds aren't suitable for anybody to sleep on plus I hated the bedding that was on the bed, maybe they must change their beds and just use white bedding, the rooms' curtains were hanged on on the wrong side and the other on the right side. I work for a textiles company and we do bedding, and guest houses must just do white bedding, sorry to complain, but my partner and myself went home with sore backs, first time I slept on a bed that was degrading.
Close to the restaurants. The fish factory can face a problem with the bad smell that can be smelled there from time to time. Everything depends on the wind direction.
No aircon, no heaters. TV old. Bedding old and beds old, stab in the back, can refurbish and renew.
The fridge and microwave were dirty inside. The TV didn't work as the previous people who stayed there ran amok. Lots of cobwebs and we slept on top of the bed because of the top. WiFi also only started working when we were driving the next morning.
No one there. Difficulty in getting contact with receiption and getting in. Had to call LekkeSlaap to intervene. The room I book was not available. Got another.
It was a lovely break for me. The sea air did wonders! Elm was fantastic. Quiet, tidy and everyone was very friendly.
Peaceful stay no complaints will use Elm Tree Guest Farm again soon.
Only issue was that the TV did not work but reported to owner.
We really enjoyed the birds. The peacock came to visit every day. The farm animals were incredibly cute. The sounds are beautiful. The chickens' clucking too. We enjoyed ourselves a lot. Will definitely visit again. The cottage was cute. Only the bed is a bit uncomfortable and so are the sofas in the lounge area. Thanks for a nice break.
I overnighted in Snoekie which was very neat, functional and very well equipped for full self-catering. This farm is the ideal base from which to explore all the attractions in the surrounding area. A well-rated lifestyle centre, with two restaurants, is within walking distance. Then the rich bird life and the views of the harbour add to the atmosphere of peace all around. I will be back for a longer stay.
Enjoyed it a lot, and rested well. It was a very neat place and felt very safe, and also had privacy at the same time. And the children really enjoyed the animals. And people were very hospitable and friendly. Will come again.
Nice for holidays and relaxing.
Beautiful place that is very well located for vacationing.
Stay in Snoekie was perfect and seeing that we only booked for one night, but when wanted to stay a second night Maria was kind enough to make another unit, Harder, available. Harder is totally substandard to Snookie, but served the purpose. So we are very satisfied with the service in general. The donkeys on the farm and the absolute cleanliness of even the gardens are a pleasure to experience. I would recommend Elm Tree Guest Farm over and over again. Thank you.
Very neat and clean house with all the necessary accessories. Owner very friendly and helpful as well as her employees. If load shedding kicks in, the generator is switched on immediately. Could rest well. Is recommended.
Beautiful beaches to enjoy a morning walk/jog.
It was very convenient.
If you want to get away from city life then visit Elm Tree.
Good value for money.
See stars.
No oven pan, only 1 pot and 1 pan. Cutlery bends when you use, pipes rattle when you turn on the tap in your house and the house next to you. We also didn't get the house we booked. Poor reception compared to other accommodation places.
We felt the need to wash all the crockery and cutlery, the bedding was clean, but the curtains unclean.
Everything you could need is in the cottage. Very clean and tidy and the owners are very helpful! Will definitely go back to Elm Tree!
They accommodated us by offering us extra accommodation.
Nice place to stay for touring the area.
We had a wonderful stay. Unit was neat and clean. Did our soul good.
It's cute cottages, private and the tranquility itself.
There were no towels?
The reception and the introduction to the environment was not very good. There was uncertainty as to what to do with the keys when we left.
St. Helena Bay is a fantastic place with the cleanest air. The silence and tranquility is like a welcome escape from the hustle and bustle of the city. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life.
Location perfect, tranquillity and easy to explore the surrounds. Loved seeing the animals and hearing about Christmas ─ the springbok born on Christmas day.
Enjoyed the silence very much.
Great atmosphere and view of the harbour.
We were very impressed with the accommodation, perfect for our 1 night stay. The aircon was fantastic and we felt safe in the apartment. There is a small farm yard with a few geese and chickens/roosters, the roosters start crowing pretty early, take ear plugs if your a light sleeper. But all in all a wonderful stay. Thank you Elm Tree Lodge.
Loved being there, had a great stay.
Elm Tree Guest Farm is well located in St Helena Bay close to everything. The cottage had all the necessary facilities and we especially enjoyed the braai place on the stoep. It is very safe and we were not worried for one moment about our 3 year old moving around on the site. The gate that closes against the road helped especially for this. We also enjoyed the excellent service at the Spar as well as the friendly people and good food at De Palm Restaurant in town. The biltong shop at De Palm's biltong was also of high quality. St Helena Bay is well situated for exploring the West Coast with towns such as Dwarskerbos, Velddrift, Laaiplek, Paternoster, Vredenburg and Jacobsbaai conveniently close by. We will visit again.
The unit (Krefie) is well furnished with all the necessary tools for daily use. It was also very neat and clean and safe. All criticism we have is: The living room sofas and 2 kitchen chairs were terribly uncomfortable. A little too upright and hard. The pillows were also very thin. Also found that there were an awful lot of flies as soon as you started cooking. Would also have preferred to pay a little more and have DStv at our disposal. But overall, we would definitely stay there again.
Very friendly hostess.
We enjoyed our stay at Elm Tree Guest Farm. The hosts are very friendly and helpful. Our little one enjoyed feeding the cows and sheep.
Fantastic, peaceful, most delicious place to unwind away from the hustle and bustle! Beautiful sea view and the beautiful animals on the farm make it definitely unique for animal lovers and child-friendly. You can explore the village and the animals and walk to town, it's so peaceful and safe. The people are all friendly and helpful. The place is spacious and tidy.
