62 guests' feedbackBest view you can get. Very well equipped. Well located. Couldn't be better!
This was one of the best place I ever stayed at. It is clean, well equipped spacious. Have a beautiful view. You will definitely leave well rested and with a calmness.
Beautiful place with the most beautiful view and very spacious. Everything you need and more. Very private. If I could suggest something for an even better visit, it would be a 'spotlight' at the braai area. Highly recommend.
Beautiful clean. Lovely bed and bedding. Kitchen well equipped. Would recommend anytime.
We had a wonderful stay at The Boathouse. It is a very comfortable and well-equipped apartment, and the host made us feel very welcome.
Awesome place with a fantastic view. The host is very helpful and friendly and we felt right at home.
Had a nice stay.
We had a wonderful stay. The view was wonderful. The apartment was very neat and beautiful.
The sea view is something special. Our 2nd day there we went to buy binoculars to see everything better. The Boathouse has everything a self-catering unit should have.
It was the best decision we could have made. The space, the quality, the hostess' care, everything was super great. It's definitely an exceptional studio! The musty smell, which seems to be a big problem in Jongensfontein, is very unfortunate. We enjoyed 4 days there, but unfortunately it affected me very badly.
Very nice stay. Well equipped with attention to small detail. Beautiful view! Will definitely go again.
A quiet, relaxing stay in a well thought out studio with a great view of the sea.
Fantastic! Will stay there again!
View is breathtakingly beautiful. Very well furnished with the most beautiful decor. Clean and tidy. Perfect for a couple looking to get away for a bit. We really enjoyed the fireplace. The Boathouse will see us again for sure.
Corne let us know before arrival that we could check in earlier. On arrival we were received very hospitably. Unit was spotless and had only the best fixtures, bedding and towels. Everything one could possibly need was available. View and location are excellent. Can highly recommend the stay.
Very friendly reception by Corne and her husband. Lovely place!
Everything is so clean and beautiful. Had a great time. Rained a bit wet to be able to braai and quite missed an oven. However, nothing is insurmountable and accommodation is great. Would love to go again somewhere in the future. Recommend it boldly.
The Boathouse is our preferred getaway location. We have been there a few times and are already planning our next holiday there.
Lovely view. Quiet. Spacious. It has everything you need. Love it.
It was just good and fun from start to finish. Corne is very hospitable and friendly.
All the time power, nice quiet and nice view.
The perfect place with everything you need for you and your partner and even more with a phantasmagoric view of the sea that makes sunbathing and sunrises a real treat.
The Boathouse has all the kitchen equipment and appliances that you would need, and more. The indoor fireplace was an added bonus during the cold weather. There is also a very neat braai area adjacent to the kitchen with lovely sea views.
Beautiful view from the accommodation. Comfortable outdoor grill! Washing machine was a big help. Had a great time.
Very nice place with a breathtaking view of the sea. The apartment is very nicely and practically laid out. Will definitely recommend him to guests.
Very nice view of the sea and close to the beach.
The Boathouse has an excellent location - the best view, is neat and clean, and has every amenity you can think of or need. Thank you very much for great service. We will definitely go there again.
What a lovely setting and The Boathouse is a beautiful place to stay. Corne made me feel extremely welcome and everything was perfect. I would only make one recommendation - shelter over the braai place so that one can braai even when it rains.
Unit is tidy with a very nice view, has everything you need. Reception is also very pleasant, will definitely go again.
Clean, spacious, well appointed studio with fantastic view.
Highly recommendable.
Very neat, clean and comfortable accommodation.
We also like the tranquility, the nice barbecue area, the WiFi - and that everything is so beautiful and tasteful.
The apartment is very well equipped, beautifully located and the reception was professional. I would definitely stay there again.
Loved the view and the peaceful surroundings.
We stayed over for 2 nights. The Boathouse was very clean and comfortable with everything we needed. Will definitely stay over again and can recommend it.
The Boathouse is absolutely the best place to relax and just rest. Falling asleep with the waves breaking is idyllic. Best is there is power even if it is loadshedding. All that was negative was that we were there too short. Will definitely recommend.
The cupboards just need to be opened more, because it smells very distressed.
You can't get a better view.
It's a beautiful equipped place with everything you need. Very neat and comfortable. I really enjoyed staying there and will definitely stay there again.
Everything was in place on arrival. Everything one needed was in The Boathouse. We had a great stay!
The Boathouse is well appointed and you have everything and more than you need. The braai place next to the apartment is a plus. Corne is a wonderful hostess, friendly and helpful.
Absolutely beautiful place.
Fantastic view! Super comfortable! Will be back for sure!
We can definitely recommend The Boathouse, the view and tranquility of the whole area is just fantastic.
I was just looking for peace and quiet, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The Boathouse was just perfect. Beautifully furnished, amazing sea view, red bench for drinking coffee during sunrise and for sunsets. Every day a different sea face that greets you. Everything and more available in the unit. Corne and her husband, very friendly. So is Rufus, the dog who drops by a few times each day. Would also be perfect for 2 people. Felt so safe. I can confidently recommend The Boathouse.
Only negative point for us is the inconvenient parking. Otherwise no complaints.
Was very kindly received, place is very clean and luxurious, beautiful sea view. More than enough for 2, and was briefly asked by the owner if it was okay if we needed something so very helpful. Will definitely recommend and visit again soon. Thank you very much.
Beautiful place to stay with uninterrupted sea view. Everything we needed and more!
We always return to this lovely place, which also included free Wi-Fi. Very friendly hostess and neighbors. Everything you need is on site, just bring yourself.
Braai area will be convenient if there is a roof put up for protection from rain.
Our hostess received us kindly and made sure we had everything we needed. The Boathouse is very well equipped. Nothing short of that. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Jongensfontein. The views are beautiful and the location perfect. I would recommend this stay to anyone.
There is everything you need: Beautiful views and hospitable people. Will visit again when I'm in Jongensfontein.
Perfect seaside getaway.
Very friendly hostess.
The unit is under a house with a nice view of the sea, but high above the sea - I read the advertising photos as facing the sea, with only the road in between. So look at the map first before you decide to book. There is a footpath down to a tidal pool, but it is slightly out of the main beach part of the village. There is everything you need, except that to my embarrassment I had to ask for toilet paper (we got half a roll). I wouldn't come here again myself, but it depends on what you like. I want to be closer to the beach next time. And make sure the room's deodorizer is off - it kept us awake the first night until we could work out the repetitive noise the next morning!
Fantastic place, neat.
It's nice and close to Jongensfontein as well as Stilbaai and wonderfully comfortable just DStv, outdoor barbecue and washing machine!
Well located, very neat with everything that you need. Attention to fine detail. Corne thought of everything. We'll definitely go back.
Thank you, Corne and Theo. We loved staying at The Boathouse. The personal touches and all the extras really make a difference. We had a wonderful stay, thanks.
The Boathouse is a neat and clean studio, big enough to accommodate two adults and 2 children under 10.
Beautiful view. You can hear the ocean all the time and everything is walking distance. Friendly hosts who strive to make your stay as pleasant and equipped as possible.
