114 guests' feedbackCan really recommend the unit. Good service. Clean and safe. Good service. Everything you need was there.
Wow, the view is wow! The accommodation is stylish and has everything you need.
Had a great stay and will definitely come again! Location is fantastic. Everything there you need to escape from the busy life.
Unbeatable view, quiet and safe. The perfect getaway.
It was a lovely visit at Opa se Pitte (Top Unit).
Beautifully furnished place, in front of the sea. Incredible relaxation and peace of mind! Highly recommended!
The beach is really amazing close about 10 m, it is clean and safe. The bay provides shelter from the wind.
Stay was very nice and comfortable with all necessary items at hand to make you feel at home.
If you are looking for a house by the sea, then look no further! You won't get better than this. Very well equipped kitchen with good quality wares. The porch was a winner and the view never gets boring.
Beautiful and so cute, tiny house living with the best view of Harolds Bay.
Sit in the living room and stare at the never-ending waves that roll in non-stop.
Beautiful view, neat and definitely recommended!
We will definitely visit again. Everyone was so helpful and friendly. Fantastic location. Tidy. Had a great time. Would definitely recommend it.
Very good value for money and very good booking experience. Will definitely go back and recommend!
Grateful for the discounted price - it's well located, but at the full season price it's quite expensive for what you get. Neat unit, but still very basic.
The unit was very well equipped and as 5 adults we stayed very comfortably. Communication from the hostess was always quick and helpful. Just something to keep in mind - in the lower unit, the wood floors above can be a nuisance. It also depends a lot on the guests upstairs. We didn't hear the first bunch at all, but when the second burst moved in above it was quite unpleasant. A shed underneath might also be a good investment. The sun in the afternoon drives you completely inside and if it rains you can't use the stoep either. The cleaners were also very early on our trail on our last morning - they were there by 07:30 and started cleaning up outside. It makes you feel quite rushed and we just packed up and drove. Other than that it was a really nice place to stay and you can't beat the location!
The place is not very clean and mold is everywhere in the place. Could not due to the smell does not sleep. The master bedroom smells like urine. We had to move to another room with 2 single beds. Very very unhappy with this place.
The excitement was great to stay in "Oupa se Pitte", especially with the beautiful nameplate and the sea in the background, but the disappointment was great! We were greeted by a fountain with dirty water and algae, in the corner next to the outdoor shower it looks like old tiles/construction debris lying there and up the stairs to the first floor the paint is peeling off the ceiling. There were stains on the tablecloth, towels, bedding and furniture. The chair in the room is full of spots and if you cover it, the cover has 2 long, ugly tears. The duvet cover's clips could not close all of them. The room only had 3 curtains and not 4. Linens were already old and shabby, including the non-matching pillowcases on the bed in the living room. The melamine on the kitchen counter is partially broken - looks like it burned before. At the sliding door, a piece of old dirty "salt and pepper" Van Dyk carpet has been inserted, as the other old, brown, natural fiber carpet is too short. The bathroom and kitchen doors cannot open all the way because the laundry basket and a cupboard that looks like a bookshelf are too big. The tub is old with permanent stains. The upper floor is not soundproof for snoring and crying children from the lower floor. The cutlery and kitchen appliances were of good quality.
It was so wonderful with the ocean on our doorstep. The children went down to the beach first thing in the morning and we felt so safe. So deliciously grilled with the most beautiful view! Will definitely visit again.
Group of 12 men for a golf tour. Worked great and will definitely go again. Perfect for family holidays too.
Complaint. Two units away, builders who walked past my booked unit and stared into my unit. Hence the doors could not have been opened to enjoy the view, which is what I specifically wanted and booked as a speacial treat to myself. This was unpleasant for me. Had I been informed that this would be the case, I would have booked with a different provider.
Communication with necessary information was complete, clear and accurate.
Wonderful stay right on the beach.
You can't be closer to the beach either.
The fact that the house is in two separate parts was very handy for the couple with small children. The house was very nice clean and well equipped. Will definitely go back to Opa se Pitte again!
We had a great time at Opa's Pitte! Would definitely recommend it. We can't wait to visit again. Many thanks to everyone who was involved!
The house is top quality and wonderfully and comfortably equipped. Cleaning service was very inconvenient at 08:15 while we had until 10 hours to vacate - one felt very rushed and sorry but please. if you received a message that I did share my displeasure.
We enjoyed the house very much. Als was very nice clean and tidy. The house has everything you can think of, it is so fully equipped. Literally just take your food, clothes and swimming towels. The location is also excellent. Would love to go again.
Wood floors cause a big problem if there are people with children staying in the upper unit.
Safe with very friendly people in surrounding areas.
Always difficult for me as a parent who has to bring my disabled (mentally and physically) adult child with me. We were 3 in a place that could sleep 8 and was a bit expensive.
We had an exceptional time in George and Oupa see Pitte was just the perfect place to stay.
Plekkie's view so beautiful and peaceful area.
Just 1 word: great.
Def recommendable! The most beautiful view and the best accommodation!
The accommodation was fantastic and big enough for 3 families with 8 children. Parents could sit on the patio and kids could play on the beach! Had a wonderful weekend.
Very nice place. Well equipped and tidy. Lots of space. Very stylish.
The location is perfect. The view and location, the well-equipped home and facilities, make it an unforgettable experience. The agent, Inge, was even helpful despite the fact that she herself was on leave during our stay. Definitely a place we will book again.
What a hidden treasure, Inge went over and above what was needed. The Saturday evening the rain keep us indoors but honestly the games Inge provided kept us busy till late. Oupa se Pitte is really well equipped for summer or winter, rain or shine, busy weekend or relaxing getaway. Will be back.
We had a Team Building and it was held there. Was quite comfortable with the area and was very relaxing for us.
Bliss, wonderful, re-energized and the kids loved every moment of it!
Great communication throughout, which we appreciated.
Very close to the beach. Family friendly, child friendly. Spacious accommodation and very well equipped.
Fresh air and beautiful scenery.
We were at Oupa's Pitte for 3 days and it was truly one of the best getaways ever. The location, view, tranquility and safety speak volumes. One is so close to George, Wilderness and even Knysna that it can also be used as business accommodation. WiFi is reliable and I could use all Zooms etc. added without effort, and with a view.
One can enjoy the sea view, the beach and all the town movements each minute of the day and as the sun sets you experience the calmness and tranquillity. No place better on earth than Oupa se Pitte!
Was wonderful with 2 small children and a braai on the stoep of the sea every day. I will definitely book this place again!
As promised, the unit was indeed on the beach. It's comfortable, neat, well-dressed and nicely supplied with braai facilities and kitchenware. The family unit was so comfortable, the shower facilities were great! Access to the main unit was easy. Large shutters that slide open on the upper unit were exceptionally nice for the real seaside atmosphere. Will definitely come again!
Very nicely equipped apartment. Location is perfect.
Lovely location, safe, fully equipped. We stayed on the ground floor. Only objection is that the second bathroom outside the unit is raised.
The location made up for the small space that the apartment offers for des person. It's great to be able to sleep six people, but the moving space inside is booked. I would not recommend it for winter visits when it rains. We spent a lot of time outside spread out. The two outside bathroom was a life saver! I realize the building is old so everything inside the bathroom is not that modern, but I would suggest you replace the toilet seat. The cover is broken off and it just looks bad. Even the shower door (inside bathroom) is broken and the glass panel slides out of its frame. We all took a shower in the back because we were afraid the shower door would fall out. Therefore I feel it was not 100% value for money. But the service was great, Inge was fantastic and we will go again.
Location is fantastic. But maintenance on unity is urgently needed. One glass panel next to the lower folding door was broken. It's a danger. The lower unit's sink has leaks under the sink. It's very wet there and the shelves have started to get damaged with the moisture. Upper bathroom blind was broken, and the carpets are not neatly clean. We had a great stay, but the unit definitely needs work.
Beautiful view from apartment. Lovely to hear and see the sea. Provision was made for everything we needed. Would love to go back.
Grandpa's Pitte is the perfect location and so well appointed. Service is excellent - thank you Inge. We will definitely be back again. This is exactly what our idea of a seaside holiday is.
Next year we will definitely stay at Opa's pitte.
Perfect holiday home!
What a treat! Clean, homely, right on the beach. Perfect family holiday home.
Many thanks to Inge for her hospitality, willingness and kindness. The unit was well appointed with the finest crockery, durable linens and the location was stunning. We were able to find rest for our weary souls for the 7 days we were there!
We had a great stay!! Will definitely visit again!!
Grandfather's Pitte was a wonderful break for us. The location is fantastic, by the water but not on the sand. The house is tidy, with everything you need, and a couch that no one really wanted to get up from. The master bedroom's mattress is firm and sleeps like a dream. Note that you will hear the upstairs guests moving due to the wooden floors. The braai area is slightly low - tall people will find it uncomfortable. I would suggest that the owners look into burglar bars at the opening windows, for better ventilation with peace of mind. exGauteng, we don't leave windows open at night without burglar bars. It was very nice to stay there, and we will come again.
Very comfortable and everything you need at hand.
Very neat and well equipped. Decor beautiful and homely. Location is 10/10. Cleaning services very professional and thorough. Can highly recommend Grandpa's Pitte!
Inge the owner is an incredibly nice person. She sent a message to see if we drove safely. Place is beautiful. Environment is everything that any human could desire. Grandfather's Pitte will definitely see us again next year.
Had a lovely stay. Would love to go again at some point.
We highly recommend Grandpa's Pitte. The location is unforgettable, breathtaking view and delicious warm fireplace make August's Cape cold worth it. We will come again!
Everything was perfect! Grandfather's Pitte will definitely see us again soon! The view is amazing, everything was just unforgettable! Many thanks also to Inge who regularly contacted us with all the arrangements and to hear that we are happy and that nothing is lacking. I would recommend Grandfather's Pitte to everyone. Gem of a place!
Good location. Great views. Fantastic location ─will definitely book there again.
Very nice view of the sea and hills that surround Herolds Bay. A really nice holiday home for the family to get away.
We as a family could not have wished for a more convenient, child friendly, breath-taking location. We were not left wanting for anything, as the accommodation was top class and the service even better. Thank you!
Very nice stay at Opa's pitte! Will definitely go again.
Here you get your well-deserved rest. It's safe and ideal for a family getaway. No traffic or mass of people, where children can frolic on the beach and in the streets. Thank you for an unforgettable holiday.
It was the nicest getaway one could ask for. The house is very neat and has everything you need. The location is fantastic with the sea right in front of the house. Inge made sure everything was perfect and she was very accommodating and friendly.
We as a family enjoyed the weekend very much. With the doors open it felt like we were sitting next to the sea. View is incredible. Everything we needed was there. Enough space for 6 people. Convenient. Thank you for being asked or right. Appreciate it.
Was very nice and quiet. Good place with children.
Lovely house in a perfect location. The kitchen was a little cramped and can do with a little renovations. We had a great stay!
Beautiful view and very peaceful. Only disappointment is that the upper unit has wooden floors and this causes the guests in the lower unit to hear every sound of any movement above them. We literally had to wake up and get up at 05:45 at the weekend with the guests above us.
The accommodation is in a wonderful location and is close to the beach and sea. The main bedroom has beautiful furniture. The dining and lounge area is cramped and it would have worked better if the living room was bigger and there were only two bedrooms. There is no space for groceries, but the kitchen is well-equipped. We thoroughly enjoyed the visit.
A beautiful place. Great right on the beach, sit on your balcony and enjoy the sun and sea and watch the sun go down. Like most holiday homes, the pots and pans could be of better quality.
Owner was very helpful and hospitable. Will definitely go holiday there again.
The upper unit with its wooden floors may not be so suitable for busy little ones. The broken tiles and rusty fridge are an indication that maintenance is required. The DStv gave us problems throughout our stay. However, the positive points far outweigh the few negatives and we will definitely make a reservation here again in the future and recommend it to friends and family!
It was wonderfully quiet and peaceful and the accommodation was one of the best. We really enjoyed having the sea and beach on your doorstep. We will book again at Opa se Pitte for accommodation anytime.
Truly a lovely destination. We didn't have any shortcomings and had a lovely stay. The separate lapa area was perfect for my teenagers, but will also work for a second family going with. It is on the beach and safe.
We would like to sincerely thank you for everything you have helped us with! It was an absolute privilege to receive such treatment. Also our special thanks to Harmione for the effort on her part. Big appreciation for the champagne you gave us, which made the event even more special, and made us realize that you go the extra mile to make your customers feel special. We felt so at home and it was the perfect place for us! Everyone who saw the photos we took of Opa's Pitte and the beach was and still is very jealous! It's so beautiful and like the comment, you can't get closer to the beach, made us realize how special Grandpa's Pitte is! Thank you for preserving Grandpa's Pitte so beautifully for so many generations and making it possible for others to enjoy it with you! This time at Opa's Pitte is something special that we will remember forever! We will gladly support you again if it is granted to us!
Very nice place with incredible view and very well equipped - really everything you need!
Ons sal beslis weer by Oupa se Pitte gaan bly. Ons het elke oomblik geniet.
What a great sea view, fully equipped kitchen, everything you need down to electric beater. Wouldn't actually recommend it to anyone, makes it hard for us to stay at this gem of a place again.
The stay and accommodation was excellent. Will definitely go again.
Breathtaking setting, right on the beach! House very nice and nicely equipped. This is a top destination!
Beautiful place and nice touches. Thank you Inge and Hermione for your kind service. It was wonderful to have the beach on our doorstep. Would really recommend it.
Friendly service. Beautiful view. Practically on the beach.
We had a fantastic stay - "home from home" accommodation. Views and setting perfect. Most definitely recommend Oupa se Pitte. One small problem - guests who checked in above us on our 2nd day were extremely loud. Owner should think of making floor upstairs more soundproof.
Enjoyed Oupa se Pitte a lot, will definitely stay there again.
We had a great time at Opa's Pitte. The unit was clean and tidy and well equipped with everything you need.
The residential unit offers the necessary equipment for self-care. Is well located for a peaceful holiday at a beautiful beach. Is neat. We were well taken care of by the friendly caretaker who made herself available should there be any problems or requests. Was a very pleasant experience and stay.
Grandpa's Pitte was a wonderful holiday! However, the photos make the place appear much bigger and with lots of little kids and big people, space was cramped at times.
I don't think there is a more beautiful beach than Herolds Bay and with the house by the sea the children could play while we barbecued. Will definitely stay there again.
This is a very comfortable and unique stay in Herolds Bay. Children can be watched from home on the beach. We really enjoyed our stay. Thank you very much!
Perfectly situated, right by the ocean and Harolds Bay is very beautiful. We definitely recommend it.
Most beautiful place ever! Thank you very much.
The view, accommodation and location of this place are excellent.
Right from the get-go we had a lovely view and the fresh sea air made us breathe deeply and relax. The children really enjoyed it and we could hardly get them off the beach. The facilities also provided all the necessities for our stay. It was hard saying goodbye to this exceptional place!
What a wonderful place. We were 6 adults who used the lower unit. The location was perfect and the unit was clean, tidy and it felt like home.
Will definitely use the destination and accommodation again.
Because we were there for 3 nights, it was okay. If it was for my December holiday, I would've been disappointed, because it doesn't state anywhere that the family room is part of the actual apartment. So, I didn't expect a one bedroom.
Will go back for a holiday again and again!
Very impressed by the service from LekkeSlaap and the owners of the apartment. Quick, pleasant feedback. Please keep it this way! Will definitely call again and recommend it to people.
Was a very nice weekend. House was neat and has an incredible view. Thank you very much for all your efforts.
Herolds Bay was a wonderful experience and would certainly recommend it to anyone. Many thanks to everyone who helped make our stay a wonderful experience.
It was a lovely weekend in a lovely, nice old-fashioned house without frills and too many modern decorations. So nice to just be able to hang out in a nice old living house that doesn't feel like a decorated guest house! This is a lovely living house right on Heroldsbaai's beach. Do yourself a favor and visit there! All I would change is to put a hearth in the living room!
It is the perfect location in Herolds Bay. The decor is a bit eclectic, but the view happily makes up for it.
House (upper part) is perfectly located for a beach holiday, has a nice sitting area and is well equipped. The one bedroom is outside and the house a bit cramped, so I wouldn't recommend it for families with small children, but for us it worked well.
The roof leaks to the right of the front door and also to the left behind the bed. It makes the carpet smell terrible. Cushions can be replaced, it's very flat. Hope the feedback will help. We will definitely come and stay again.
It was lovely to be able to stay so close to the beach. With small children who want to play on the sand from an early age, it was ideal. We would LOVE to go there again.
