95 guests' feedbackDie kuier was chilled vibes. Alles was up to standard.
I always enjoy staying at Karibu. The welcome, hospitality and support of the host is excellent. It's practically steps from the beach front and heavenly to fall asleep to the sound of the waves. Excellent.
From arrival to departure it was a huge treat to stay at Karibu. I was even surprised on my birthday with personal congratulations and a gift. The location is extremely good, very safe and the unit is lovely. Danie made a special effort, especially to explain the TV to me. Highly recommend Karibu.
Neat, safe and peaceful accommodation. Will definitely book there again on our next visit. Thank you.
Friendly service and owner is very helpful. Had a great time.
Absolutely phenomenal. Friendliness, staff very supportive in all aspects.
In my view you could ask for nothing more from a self-catering holiday establishment. Extremely clean and comfortable with everything you would need. Close to the rock pools and lovely walks to enjoy.
Very nice stay and will definitely go again!
The place is very beautiful and has everything you need. The water and juice in the fridge was a nice bonus. The place is load shedding free which is great. It's walking distance from the sea and you can clearly hear the waves.
Very neat accommodation with everything you need. Everything went smoothly with check-in and check-out. Very friendly and willing to listen to special requests and accommodate them where possible. The attention to small "detail" is commendable. The towels that were folded like swans made us think we were on our honeymoon again and the tea towels that look like a bird are almost too beautiful to use. We will definitely stay here again if the opportunity arises.
The focus on small detail is commendable. We felt very much at home and had a nice sea view and braai facilities inside the unit. Very neat and well organized. Also provided for power outages in relation to lights and TV.
Our second time at Karibu, everything was as perfect as the first. From the warm welcome by Danie to the actual accommodation tastefully decorated with everything you will need for a very comfortable stay. The very clean and tidy place really love the small details like the swan-folded towels it was a wonderful stay.
Will definitely come back again.
Very nice place, nice to be able to hear and see the sea so close. Will definitely go again.
We loved all the extra little touches, like the beautifully folded towels and chocolates! Even the loo roll was decorated! A wonderfully peaceful place to stay. Thank you for your hospitality and efficiency in booking us in. We will definitely stay here again. The only thing that made me feel uneasy (probably from coming from upcountry) was the lack of security bars.
Safe and very tidy, the host also gave very good "tips" about attractions and places to eat.
The room is the same one that we have stayed in before and is very clean and well equipped. Loved the ornate display of towels twisted into swans and other animals. One minor irritant is the TV. We don't watch much, but we watched a bit of cricket on the day we arrived. On Sunday, we thought we would just catch up on news before we went out, and the TV was not working. A message displayed related to the DSTV account. We had the same problem the last time we stayed there. The problem is that the owner was not there, and his manager could not fix the problem. As I mentioned, the TV is not so important to us, but since this was the second time it happened, other guests might find it annoying.
Karibu is also very well equipped for loadshedding with a generator, gas dusters and lights for when the generator is off in the evening. Everything was very clean and tidy with uncapped WiFi and full DStv. Attention to detail!
Would highly recommend.
Staff were very helpful and welcomed us kindly and showed us the ropes. This accommodation is perfect for a quick visit to Hermanus (business or leisure) and longer term holidaymaker.
Very neat, well equipped, peaceful area, and money well spent.
Danie received us hospitably, our place was extremely neat, with everything we needed. We will definitely stay there again in the future and recommend Karibu Self-catering Accommodation to friends.
Friendly, clean, amazing views, sound of the water and place everything that needed was there - rate 10/10. Well done guys.
Immediately felt at home and although the weather didn't cooperate, our stay was very comfortable with a heater and an electric blanket on the bed. And don't forget the treats, chocolate on the bed with the nicest folded towels, water, milk and juice in the fridge just to name a few. The environment very quiet and so to speak on the coastal promenade. Will definitely stay at Karibu Self-catering Accommodation again and would highly recommend it for a nice treat.
Everything was so nice and the house had everything in it, except a stove, but it was really amazing. Thank you very much Karibu Self-catering Accommodation.
Will be seeing more of us at the next available opportunity.
It was a tranquil and delectable stay. All amenities you could hope for were supplied, with a view to die for. I would strongly recommend it to anyone looking for a getaway to recharge and relax.
Close to the sea and the local people are friendly.
The clean, tastefully furnished and comfortable place to stay made our 2 days in Onrus, Hermanus worth it! It's very nice and it's walking distance from the sea! Everything you need and special treats! I will choose to stay there every time I pass by!
Danie received us kindly. Quiet and safe environment. The unit is very neat and of high quality. We really enjoyed the week's stay and highly recommend it.
We had a wonder stay. Frans is a super host and we will definitely be back for a longer stay. The place was spotless, with modern and lovely décor. Perfectly quiet and very safe.
The price is too good for words. We were absolutely amazed at the value we got for the price we paid. Frans was an absolutely wonderful host. The view was fantastic. The facilities were of high quality. Although the wall was low, we were absolutely safe, and also our car.
Very nice, neat and safe.
Really very good. Everything needed like parking. Extremely comfortable, hospitable. We can hardly believe it.
The private lounge, kitchen, and bathroom add to the peace, quiet, and privacy of your stay. It was beautiful and clean. I loved it and will go back!
Danie from Karibu was absolutely wonderful and accommodating. He gave us some good locations to visit in Hermanus. Our unit was so cosy and welcoming and warm. Just down the road from the beach and tidal pool. Definitely not our last visit.
I really enjoyed my stay and would recommend Karibu to anyone who visits Hermanus.
Good location, the place was so clean everything was spot on.
Friendly, safe, tidy, comfortable.
This accommodation was very well equipped even though we only stayed 1 night it was very peaceful and quiet. This is the first place I stay overnight that has an ironing board and iron. These are 2 items that are very important to me because I don't walk around with unironed clothes.
Very pleasant stay, accommodation is very clean and comfortable.
We needed some clean towels after 2 days, had to ask for clean ones.
So complete - even toothpicks! Just a little out of the way, yet close to the sea. Good luck to your team.
Best welcome and the walks by the sea were very nice.
Place was clean and had all needed utensils. Host was friendly. The view was great and the neighbourhood quiet.
Very nice stay, the photos are only slightly misleading in terms of the different houses. We thought we had an indoor barbecue, but it's only in the one house. Specify a little more that the specific photos are with the specific rooms.
Everything you need, close to beautiful walking paths by the sea and not too far from Hermanus town centre.
Was surprised that there wasn't a stove, but it was an awesome and cozy space.
The guest house at Karibu Self-catering Accommodation is exactly as advertised and does not disappoint at all. The house is beautiful, neat and is located in a nice place to go for a walk along the coast.
I really enjoyed the calm and the view. The unit was beautiful and very tidy. I would go there again anytime.
A truly pleasant stay in a wonderful, modern, spotless apartment! Our thanks to Danie for giving us hints on places to visit. Although about ten minutes from the town centre, Karibu is approx. 100 metres from a tidal pool and fantastic coastal trails in either direction. I can highly recommend!
Perfect for our needs, bathroom clean and modern. Comfortable bed. Kitchen very well appointed and helpful staff. Will certainly return.
Second time staying here and shall do again, close to the beach and rooms very well equipped. Just 2 comments: 1. self-catering facilities very comprehensive, but tea bags supplied are not 5 roses and they are quite unpleasant; 2. because it is in a residential area there is no sign stating that it is Karibu Self-catering Accommodation just follow your satnav.
Loved the accomodation as it very modern and everything needed for a breakaway. Will recommend to anyone. Was awesome to be able to still have power during the day, even though there was loadshedding. Safety outside at night can be improved by having some sort of solar lighting, as it's extremely dark as there is no lighting.
It is centrally located and quiet enough to recharge. Very friendly and hospitable.
Loved our stay at Karibu and would definitely like to stay there again.
Everything tidy, kitchen spotless, new and comfortable. Location fantastic. Walking distance to sea.
Friendly, hospitable service.
We really enjoyed the time at Karibu Self-catering.
See stars.
Will definitely make a plan to visit again. Was very nice!
Best place ever would stay here again and recommend people to stay here.
The stay was very comfortable.
Location is very ideally hidden and close to the sea with a nice long walking route by the sea.
The owner made a lot of effort to keep us informed about the loadshedding and all the places we could visit. Awesome, beautiful. Walking distance from the sea.
Would definitely recommend Karibu Self-catering to those looking for a quiet getaway. We were very happy with the unit and just what my wife and I had in mind for our very first getaway alone for our wedding anniversary. The hospitality of Frans was exceptional which undoubtedly deserves a return visit.
My husband and I spent a lovely time here. Everything was excellent and the service was excellent - from our arrival until we had to go home. It was almost like a 5 star hotel. I would recommend it to anyone and will definitely return again. The roar of the sea lulled me to sleep at night. What a fantastic place, a gem.
The place was terribly beautiful. The sea view was a hit and the beds were very comfortable. Apart from a small oven, the place is fully equipped with everything one might need. The only thing that might be mentioned is that the apartment gets a little smoky if the windows or sliding door are not closed properly, but it didn't bother us much.
Centrally located, safe and quiet.
Friendliness, cleanliness, comfortable and safe.
The accommodation is very nice and tidy, as anyone would want it to be.
Karibu is within walking distance from the sea. A very comfortable running deck makes it even more attractive.
I will definitely book again and it is nice close to the sea.
We loved our stay at Karibu. It was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen is very big but has no cooking facilities other than a microwave. There is no undercover available for the braai so if it is raining you have to eat out. Fortunately this was not an issue for us and we would definitely go back.
The location and view was excellent. We will definitely come and visit again.
Karibu Self-catering just needs to put in heaters, it was a bit cold.
We were very nicely welcomed by Frans. All Covid-19 measures were followed upon our arrival. The unit is walking distance from the sea and very, very tidy! Very peaceful area and incredibly beautiful. Will visit Karibu again anytime. 10 out of 10!
We were impressed with the quality. The service was perfect. Thanks to Frans for receiving us so well and warmly. And many thanks to the entire Karibu Self-catering team who made it so incredible for us. It was the first time in years that we were able to have a weekend away and it was well worth the money and effort. Thank you very much again.
Thank you very much! It was a fantastic time and will definitely be back!
The service, accommodation and surroundings where excellent. Thank you for such a lovely stay.
Karibu self-catering accommodation is perfectly located in a peaceful area in Vermont. The self-catering unit is well equipped with everything you need. We also enjoyed our privacy and felt safe. What a great weekend!
From the time we arrived to the time we left, we enjoyed ourselves. We were even pleasantly surprised with some lovely extras. Danie and Frans went out of their way to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. I would recommend this place to all I come in contact with.
I'll see them again soon. Stunning place.
The place is in quiet surroundings. The kitchen is well equipped. I appreciated the extras for consumption. The shower is immediately warm and convenient to use. Recommending a stay strongly. Vermont itself is about 20 minutes before Hermanus. Lovely rocky beach and very pleasant walk.
On short notice and with the help of the website, checking in at Karibu was convenient and easy.
Will probably get very hot in summer. No burglar alarm either. No air conditioning. Would love to have anti-theft.
Enjoyed my stay, kitchen is well equipped, we had a warm welcome, very friendly host, planning my next trip.
It is true value for money, well-equipped and clean.
Modern, particularly clean and tidy. Comfortable, close to the sea. May need an oven.
We are a family of 2 adults and a 1 year old boy, our boy slept in his camping cot and there was enough space in the room with us. The cottage is nicely furnished with DStv and Netflix, we didn't come to watch TV but that was a bonus. Will definitely visit here again. The people are warm and friendly. 5 Star experience!
The apartment was neat and had everything we needed. Danie who received us was very nice and we will return anytime!
The unit has everything you need in a self-catering place. There was a fresh box of milk in the fridge and water, coffee, sugar etc. everything was provided. The unit was very neat and clean, we couldn't have asked for a better weekend away.
We lived in Aristea and what an experience. The unit is stunningly beautiful and everything you can think of is here. The reception also immediately made you feel welcome. Walking distance from the sea. Will definitely come again.
There is convenient parking on site and they are walking distance from the beach. Karibu is also close to amenities such as restaurants and malls. We will definitely book accommodation there again because they have beautiful rooms that are actually apartments with everything you could possibly need for your getaway over an evening, weekend or holiday.
