"Restful."

Gourikwa can pay more attention to customers and make sure that the cleaning teams come to clean the unit 1 or 2 times during one's weekly stay. They can even bring new towels every 2nd day. The help and service is good if you walk to the office / reception, but do not see or hear from any employee. Attention will need to be paid to proper safety plans or risk plans for guests. There is no cell phone signal, which is great, but can be a risk. Might offer to take one free ride around the resort. The units were not cleaned properly, although they were clean, you could see on the floor that they were rarely deep cleaned. The place is wonderful and the people when you see them are helpful, nice and friendly. The beds sleep very well and the quality of the lounge set and furniture is good! The safe wasn't open or didn't work, but because nobody gets in there everything is safe. Units are nicely maintained and nicely painted! The pheasants are interesting and 2 owls that live there are beautiful. In general, everything was clean and tidy and peaceful. Definitely a place where you find peace of mind while you barbecue and watch and listen to the waves breaking on rocks! The place is also quite central with about half an hour's drive from Mossel Bay and Hartensbos, as well as Stillbaai, Boggemsbaai and Vleesbaai. You will not feel at all that you are being trampled by the Transvalers if you were to holiday there in December. You can also quickly jump in the car and go on the neat and well-maintained tarmac to find a restaurant in one of the many famous towns around you!
