23 guests' feedbackOut of the books. This was now one of the best places we have ever stayed. The Boathouse was picture perfect. Has everything you need and we felt so at home, only a pity we had to go again. Perfect area and land for our Axl and he could also enjoy it for once with lots of space.
The Boat House experience was superb! The house is kitted with more than you will ever need! The braai area really helps to bring the kuier together! I would recommend 11 out of 10 times to anyone!
It had been a lovely weekend. The Boathouse has everything you need for a fantastic break with family and friends. You can literally just pack your towels; otherwise there is everything you need. The owner has definitely thought of everything and more that is needed. The massive indoor grill is an absolute winner! We are already planning our next getaway there!
Great, just needs WiFi.
We absolutely loved our stay at The Boathouse. The house is equipped with everything you need.
A beautiful, well maintained and fully equipped house. Lovely garden with lots of space.
Beautifully decorated, well situated, nice chilled vibe to the house. DSTV, dishwasher, indoor braai, the comfiest couches and the private jetty is a major plus. Great host too!
We had a great stay, the Boathouse offers you everything and more. We will definitely use the accommodation again.
We had a wonderful stay! Everything we needed was there. Rest, peace and incredible nature.
As a family of 5 adults and 3 dogs, we had an extremely enjoyable holiday at The Boathouse and relaxed over Christmas and New Year. The house is well laid out and equipped with what one needs for relaxing and visiting. The indoor and outdoor barbecue areas especially got a lot of discount during our stay. The owner, André, answered our questions in a flash and also gave us suggestions of activities that we could do in the area. He went out of his way to make it as comfortable as possible for us. Even all the equipment in the house, like the kayaks, was available for our use. And the access to the private jetty makes visiting around sunset something special. Although there was no WiFi available during our stay, there were signs that the installation of fiber in the area was underway. The Boathouse can be confidently recommended to anyone who wants to venture out in the Velddrif area.
Excellently equipped kitchen and lovely braai and living space. My dad, who is very tall, couldn't stand up straight in the bedrooms (all located upstairs), but should be fine for average height people. The bathroom is downstairs. Very close to the river to take long and relaxing walks.
Really enjoyable. The house is well-furnished. Darts, games, a lovely indoor braai and a big outdoor braai pit. All amenities are there, including a chest freezer, washing machine and dishwasher. We had a really enjoyable few days, including using the kayaks on the river. Would highly recommend it.
Beautiful place for a family getaway. Fully equipped kitchen with everything you need, including washing machine and dishwasher. Large recreation room with quality sofas, DStv, dartboard and many different games. Very safe with enough parking inside the yard. Best of all, the owner's communication was excellent and he was always available.
Had such an amazing time at this beautiful house which was well equipped with everything we needed, so peaceful and fully enclosed so our fur baby was free to explore without us having to worry about him getting out. Thank you so much to Andre who was a great host and very kind and accommodating. Really the most beautiful sunsets! We will definitely be back soon!
The owner of the house is really a lovely person. He is super organised and attentive and if we had any questions, he was always on WhatsApp to answer us. The house is lovely, has everything you need and more. The river is super close, the kayaking is awesome. The linen was new and clean. We loved our stay!
The location was excellent. Everything was very comfortable and safe.
The Boathouse is in a peaceful area and has everything one needs to enjoy the weekend.
We enjoyed our stay at The Boathouse. The house was fully equipped and everything was neat and clean. It was pet friendly and our yorkies enjoyed exploring the big yard. There was ample safe parking and the views were amazing. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely recommend it. We will also book again in the future. André was an amazing host and was always available when needed. He was very kind and caring.
The Boathouse is one of the most beautiful places we have ever stayed. House is very clean, tidy, stylish and has everything you will need. Andrè was very friendly and helpful with all the arrangements. He made sure everything was fine with our stay. Top host! We would highly recommend The Boathouse anytime to anyone who wants to have a nice weekend or holiday with their family or friends and four-legged children. See you again soon!
Host was very welcoming. All needs were catered for, from household appliances and utensils to entertainment (darts, games, TV, kayaks, fishing rods). The home was clean and comfortable and near the lagoon. Shops, Marina and restaurants in walking distance from the house. Great value for money.
The Boathouse is ideally located. Just a few steps and you are at the river. It has a lovely open-plan sitting area and outdoor barbecue. Ideal for a nice weekend.
The Boathouse welcomed us with open arms. The owner is really very friendly and made sure that everything was perfect. The place has everything and more that one needs and was very clean and tidy. We enjoyed every moment of the visit. A few meters from the river one could experience the most beautiful sunset and just take in the beauty on the bench. Definitely worth it. We will definitely visit again. Thank you very much.
It was very neat and awesome. Will definitely recommend.
