83 guests' feedbackWas awesome. Place is very neat and the owners are very friendly. Will go back again anytime.
Friendliest people who own the place. Very luxurious, literally everything and more! Thank you very much Uncle Piet and Aunt Elmie! We will go again next year for sure.
Yes. It was fantastic.
Piet and Elmie were incredibly gracious hosts, from reassuring us about the weather before our trip to chocolate in the fridge for the kids. Could not have asked for a better 'home' away from home. The unit is exceptionally well stocked with everything we needed and even had board games to play with the kids.
I recommend Pelmite to anyone. The cottage felt like my home. There is everything and lacks nothing. Was so sad to say goodbye, but will visit again. Greetings Anel.
Absolutely yes! Will stay there again!
Great hosts, great setting, near beach, peaceful.
It was a wonderful stay. Friendly, clean and great value. Thank you to our hosts! The cottage had everything we needed.
Fantastic. Lovely hosts. Just too short. Would without doubt do it again.
It was a nice few days. Very peaceful. Our hosts were very helpful and friendly. Our 4-year-old loved the dogs and the garden.
Piet and Elmie were very friendly and paid attention to everything.
My mum and I stayed at Palmiet for 3 nights. It was a lovely stay, the owners are so welcoming and friendly. The neighbours had a lovely friendly little doggy who we encouraged to visit as we thoroughly enjoyed the puppy cuddles. The owners went out of their way to make us feel welcome and we will definitely visit again.
Piet and Elmi were incredible, the living unit is only in a 5-star class with everything and much more, you can literally eat from the floor. The extras are so welcome, nothing is missing. Their hospitality and help is outstanding. The view over the sea and garden is beautiful. You can't help but want to go back. Thank you both.
The hosts were most welcoming and friendly. The cottage is well appointed and has all the necessary amenities. It has a beautiful view over the sea and is close to the beach. I would definitely visit again.
Where does one begin to describe how wonderful and peaceful 2 weeks we had at Pelmiet Cottage. I am in the industry myself and it is unusual to meet such wonderful people in most places who always put quality, service oriented and friendly first. Elmien and Piet made us feel so at ease from the first day to the last day. The unit is so well equipped and literally has everything you need. All the little "touches" that were arranged from the beginning were very special for us. Thank you for your hospitality and we will definitely be back.
Very safe and clean.
Pelmiet Cottage is definitely value for money. Not only for the clean and tidy cottage but especially for the tranquility you experience. This is the ideal place to stay when you just want to relax. It has everything you could possibly need. Thank you very much Piet and Elmie.
Highly, highly recommend Pelmiet Cottage! We had such an enjoyable stay. The hosts are lovely and they thought of absolutely everything you could possibly need while staying there. They went above and beyond for us. The accommodation is stunning, neat, clean and family-friendly. We'll definitely be back again!
The best yet! Tidy. Everything you need. Hospitable and helpful. Photos are exactly what the place looks like!
Had a great time at Pelmiet Cottage. Our dog enjoyed it so much. Top notch accommodation, and the owners are some of the nicest people on earth.
The host and his wife were friendly and made us feel at home. They put in an incredible amount of effort to help us achieve our goals for the week. They also made sure we knew where everything was in and around the premises, and were also able to recommend good places to visit. Our deposit was paid back the same day.
From the booking to our departure, Piet and Elmie were particularly involved and helpful. Was a bit worried about privacy as we stayed on the same premises as owners. Totally baseless. It was very private. I would heartily recommend Pelmiet to any family.
Away from the hustle and bustle, just to relax. We definitely had a quiet weekend at Pelmiet.
Dear uncle Piet and aunt Elmien. Thank you for a very nice visit with you, we could not have chosen better. Your kindness, hospitality and care made us feel like family. Thanks for everything. See you again.
With flooding in KZN we were offered an extra night's accommodation due to poor road conditions.
Everything was perfect.
The hosts were very accommodating and our dogs were happy to stay with them if we had to go to the shops. Cute place with a very good sea view (from the porch as well as the braai area). We could hear the waves breaking from where we were staying. Very neat and well maintained.
Accommodation that fits like a glove. Be it for a single person or family or friends 100% spot on. Every possible amenity is available, from a hairdryer, electric extension cords, large shower, covered braai facilities, covered parking to WiFi. Incredibly neat unit with fantastic view! Water not a problem thanks to storage tank. Piet and Elmie go out of their way to make their guests feel at home and help where they can. Nicest I've ever stayed! Thank you very much. Appreciate you.
The owners received us wonderfully with our Yorkie. The cottage is beautiful and extremely clean. Everything you might need is there. The most delicious covered braai place was a bonus. Would definitely recommend it.
What a wonderful place to spend our honeymoon! We were surprised with a honeymoon treat on our bed upon our arrival. Thank you very much, Piet and Elmie, we thoroughly enjoyed it. Plekkie is very neat and fully equipped for short as well as long stays.
Very cute place to stay. Friendly people and very hospitable. Will definitely stay there again.
Place that took me in with my 4 - 5 dogs. Very thankful for that.
Fantastic. Loved every minute of our stay. Definitely a destination to visit and Piet and Elmie were absolutely amazing. They were so welcoming and willing to assist with anything. Can't wait to be back there.
Piet and Elmi welcomed us like old friends, made us feel so at home, Pelmiet had everything and more, everything was just right.
Service is exceptional.
The cottage was exceptionally clean and very well equipped. The kitchen has everything you need for preparing meals. We were amazed. The view is wonderful from the verandah and it is very close to the beach. Definitely no need to drive to the beach. We had a wonderful stay and will be back.
Pet friendly. Guest friendly. Super clean. Affordable. Thank you Piet and Elmie, we will pop in again.
Can't wait for our next getaway to Pelmiet! The accommodation was ideal for a peaceful seaside holiday with a wonderful view from the stoep and braai area, regardless of the weather. Beautiful gardens! Close enough to everything, but also far enough to switch off! Hospitality like I haven't experienced in a long time. Our wofies also enjoyed themselves and made two new friends themselves.
It was spotlessly clean. Absolutely every need is catered for. The hosts are absolutely fantastic. I had my 2 puppies and 2 bunnies with me and we enjoyed every minute. It is a short walk from one of the cleanest and most beautiful beaches on the South Coast. This place is highly recommended. The best I have stayed in so far. I cannot thank my hosts enough for their warmth and friendliness. They really go the extra mile.
Wow, where do I start with my feedback. We were warmly welcomed. You feel right at home upon your arrival. The cottage is beautiful, very safe and has everything you can think of and more. The view is breathtaking and nice to hear the sea in your ears in the evening. I was very skeptical when I saw there were dogs on the premises because I thought there would be problems with our dogs and the owners' dogs but wow, our 2 dogs were treated with the utmost love and respect and the owners' dogs such good manners, I was worried for nothing as my dogs enjoyed it almost more than we did. Piet and Elmie are people with such good hearts and go out of their way for their guests. They really went out of their way to make our stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible and we thank you for that. We were barely home and our damage deposit was refunded - now that's good service! We are already planning our next visit, because we definitely want to go back.
We received a friendly welcome. Everything was extremely clean. Well fitted out with most modern amenities. Quite private. Will recommend it for a short stay of a week or so.
It was the first time we took our dogs (2 Jack Russells) to the beach and we where a bit concerned however the owners live on the property and where very friendly and helpful by looking after our dogs when we needed to go somewhere. I really felt like my fur babies where save which put me at ease.
My booking requirements was out of the norm on how the website and the owners of the cottage were used to. They handled the situation in a prompt manner. It went well. Great job team. My 2-day stay was an awesome experience. The beach a stone's throw from the cottage. 2 spacious bathrooms/shower. Elmie and Piet are always willing to help and have gone the extra mile with small amenities. Thank you for making my stay a memorable one.
It's a fantastic place. Very neat and fantastic people. Elmie and Piet are very cute, you just feel like you have known them for years because they are really friendly.
My wife and I have visited many places and are well-travelled, but nowhere have we experienced such a wonderful place. Not even in 5-star hotels does one get such service. Wonderful people, uncle Piet and aunt Elmie were so good to us and our dogs. We are already planning our next visit in September. The only pity is that one cannot give more than 5 stars to Pelmiet! Would recommend wholeheartedly.
Wat 'n wonderlike rus plekkie. Ek was so beïndruk met die verblyf en die gas vryheid van ons gashere. Baie dankie dat julle dit vir ons moontlik gemaak het om so 'n wonderlike vakansie te hê. Ek sal dit enige tyd weer besoek en ek beveel dit hoogs aan.
Pelmiet Cottage exceeded all our expectations, the house is spotless and tidy, very child-friendly and has everything you could possibly need for a comfortable holiday. The owners are incredibly helpful and made us feel right at home. We will definitely come again!
We have been looking for an affordable vacation spot for a very long time, and can definitely say that you get value for your money. We were warmly welcomed, as well as our two dogs who quickly made themselves at home. Piet and Elmie helped a lot with directions and any questions we had before and during our stay. The Cottage was very clean and tidy. The area is nice and quiet and the cottage is walking distance from the beach. We could easily go for a walk with our dogs. The shops are also nice and close. Piet and Elmie: You are the salt of the earth. We had such a good time with you and you will definitely see us again on our next sea holiday!
You will look far to find such a fantastic hospitable value for money place to stay. Piet and Elmien are the friendliest and most helpful people. We are spoiled with champagne and chocolates on our wedding anniversary. Thank you Piet for spraying our car before we left. We will definitely see you again. Love your dogs.
The care with which this cottage was planned to ensure guests are comfortable and the warmth of the hosts really shine.
Such a beautiful and well-kept garden apartment, with truly the 2 friendliest hosts. The sea view is fantastic and the beach is within walking distance. We had a great time and would love to visit Piet and Elmie again!
We had a wonderful stay, everything was perfect. The view was ideal, saw whales playing in the sea. The garden was so beautiful and well cared for, and the birds that got seed and water every day were a joy to watch. The cottage is fully equipped, crockery, towels, bedding, everything was there in perfect condition. Many thanks again to Piet and Elmie for the warm welcome and friendly helpfulness. Me, my husband and our two dog children really enjoyed the holiday at Pelmiet Kothuis. I can really recommend Pelmiet Kothuis as your next holiday destination.
Owners went out of their way to ensure that I was comfortable and happy. They knew I had a difficult dog and at the end neither of us wanted to leave. I have booked a week in November already!
The owners were gracious and and friendly. We'd stay here again.
Affordable yet neat, clean and comfortable accommodation in a peaceful atmosphere yet close enough to facilities for pleasant outings. Piet and Elmie are an excellent host and hostess and thought of everything when they equipped the cottage. One cannot ask for anything more!
Piet and Elmie are people's people. Keep doing what you are doing and how you do it, because you are doing it well. Would recommend you and your place to anyone. We really enjoyed our stay and relaxed. Thank you.
Our business will definitely use this facility again.
The place was very neat and well equipped, received very hospitably, we arrived as strangers and left as friends. Excellent value for money, would definitely stay there again. Thank you Elmie and Piet.
Extremely hospitable owners!
The hosts were awesome, the establishment was clean, neat and tidy. I would recommend Pelmiet Cottage. We will definitely be returning.
Elmie and Piet, once again thank you for your hospitality, and that you have made Pelmiet Cottage available to us. Really had an excellent holiday stay and would not hesitate to make use of your place again. We are looking forward to our next holiday with you. Service and kindness a great deal: yes.
We were welcomed with open arms and hearts and will definitely go back for holidays in the near future. You arrive as a holidaymaker and leave as friends. There is everything one needs and many more. The view was incredibly beautiful. Elmie and Piet, thank you very much for your friendly reception and the comfortable stay.
Our experience and vacation at Pelmiet was awesome. Our dog, Rambo, was so at home and enjoyed the holiday just as much. Above expectation! All amenities one would expect were available. Truly a wonderful holiday. Thank you Piet and Elmie!
On arrival the owners met with us. They are very friendly the place is excellent in cleanliness. I would definitely recommend family and friends.
The 2 friendliest people, Elmie and Piet. Everything you need is there, the most beautiful, cleanest place ever.
Was the nicest cottage where we stayed. Everything you need to make your holiday comfortable is there. It is comfortable, very clean and tidy. Nice braai place, kitchen very well equipped. Wonderful sea view. Thank you very much Piet and Elmie, it is so nice to get to know you. We will definitely see you again.
Piet and Elmie are people of the heart. Friendly hospitable people. Felt so welcome right away. Immediately accepted Jack and Daniel (2 dog children) as part of them. Thank you very much. The place is well maintained, if only from the best. Neat and clean. Beautiful view of the sea. And the garden is really neat and well maintained. Well located to get to als quickly. Piet and Elmie, thank you very much for all your kindness and hospitality, it was really awesome. Thanks for making new friends on the South Coast. Wish you all that is beautiful with the beautiful piece of place you have. Thank you again for a special time in my life, something I will never forget. Thank you for making my dogs and children so welcome in your home. Again, you are heart people!
Safe and secure with a stunning sea view.
Friendly people. Incredible hospitality. Will definitely go there again.
The stunning view of the ocean, the cool breeze, the peace and quiet, the bird perch, the braai area and not forgetting to mention the 55 inch flat screen TV with OVHD, made our getaway a perfect one. The kitchen had every utensil required, a dishwasher and a washing machine which is like a woman's dream come true. Thank you guys for all the TLC, hospitality and the little extras you provided us with. We will definitely look you up again for another holiday break soon. Happy New Year to the loving couple, Piet and Elma.
Once again we had a fantastic visit at Pelmiet. This will be the only holiday spot for us, there is no better quality and price than this. Uncle Piet and aunt Elmie are the most wonderful people and make sure that your stay is perfect. You can't go wrong here! Thank you very much Pelmiet Cottage!
Piet and Elmie are the two most beautiful people you can think of. They immediately made me feel at home and even made me feel safe. The time spent there was indescribably lovely. I could bother them at any time with questions and directions and they were always friendly and helpful. May those 2 people and their place be blessed. I will definitely go there again and recommend the place to everyone. It's the best holiday I had in absolute years. For a better place with better people, no one can ask.
Jannet and I have been to many holiday resorts, campsites and self-catering units across the country, but never before have we experienced such hospitality. We couldn't help but feel like family during our stay there with you. Even our little dog, Stukka, found it so nice there with you that he came to visit you from his onions. Your cottage is nicely equipped with everything we needed and even more, how different then to feel at home when one comes to stay with you. Als was very nice clean and tidy inside, the braai fully equipped, wow what more could one expect? The view of the sea is something to cheer about, especially when the whales and dolphins come to play near the beach. Once again, a thousand thanks for your hospitality and kindness. We will certainly visit again and tell others about Pelmiet Cottage and the owners.
Me, my wife and two little wild boys stayed with uncle Piet and aunt Elmie for three weeks. They were a father and mother to us, you don't get better hospitality. The place is very cute, neat, clean and you get much more for your money than you will get anywhere else. We walked to the beach with our boys every day, so it's well located. There are shops not too far, and if you need anything Uncle Piet and Aunt Elmie are close by to provide any help. You won't go wrong with Pelmiet Cottage!
Many thanks to Piet and Elmie for your hospitality. It was a very nice few days that we spent with you. Piet and Elmie treated us like family, and that was really appreciated. Will definitely book there again if we go there. Can definitely recommend the stay. Accommodation is very well equipped with everything we needed.
It was the first time in my life that I went to a self-catering place where I found almost everything by arrival. There was coffee, tea, sugar, milk, salt, pepper, cold water and more. They put an extra deep freeze for me as my meat was too much for the existing one. I had problems with my car on the road and was late. When we arrive Piet and Elmie helped us to offload and make sure that we are comfortable. I can just say that I can't believe that there are still such helpful people like this in this world. If I ever go in that direction again I will definitely stay at Palmiet Cottage. I want to thank Piet and Elmie again for everything. It was nice to meet people like you.
Friendly and helpful owners. The facilities were the best. Will stay there again any time.
Uncle Piet welcomed us so warmly on arrival. The unit is neat, clean and well maintained (something you rarely see on the south coast). The braai area is great and we spent most of our time at the unit there, there is a beautiful sea view from the braai and front porch as well as from the living room. The beach is a block's walk from the cottage. Very nice beach with rocks and a swimming area. The place is a "hidden gem" and we will definitely be staying there again as soon as possible. Thank you Uncle Piet and Aunt Elmie for the warm and friendly welcome.
Was very nice, comfortable and safe.
Piet was very helpful with our people. He went out of his way to find another place because our workers had to stay longer (they were fully-booked). I recommend Pelmiet Cottage.
Have a nice holiday at Pelmiet Cottage! Reasonable prices. Safe and very clean and tidy! Thank you Uncle Piet and Aunt Elmie! We'll see you again soon!
Piet and Elmie were lovely hosts! The apartments are spacious, clean and makes for a perfect home away from home.
