36 guests' feedbackVery comfortable. The house made sense. Nice proximity to the beach with a view of the sea and mountain. Built so you are sheltered from the wind. A great time was had by all. Lovely indoor fireplace. Thanks for the wood.
The weather was good. People are friendly. Baboon entertainment, lol. Lovely, can't complain about anything. Thank you.
It was wonderful. House well furnished with everything needed and more. Thank you very much, it was delicious!
We had lovely weather and spent time by the pool and on the beach.
Amazing and enjoyable.
Would definitely consider it as a family holiday destination.
It's a nice family home with a wonderful porch where the family can hang out and laugh. The veranda also overlooks the swimming pool which is nice and warm. The house can accommodate large families or groups. The porch was a highlight for me because we are outside people. The house is located near the shops which makes it convenient to walk, should you need anything.
Wow place, Megan you are super.
Our family (5 adults) had a wonderful stay at The Mermaid's Tail. Well equipped and lacking for nothing. Spacious and cosy lounge and sun room with fire place was well used during colder days and evening. Large gas stove came in handy during loadshedding and small detail such as availability of battery operated lamps for loadshedding was appreciated. Can highly recommend and will be back!
The house has everything you need to ensure a great stay. The kids enjoyed themselves immensely. It's in walking distance from almost everything the town has to offer.
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Mermaid's Tail. We cannot brag enough about our stay at the Mermaid's Tail with friends and family!
A very cosy friendly house, me and my family enjoyed every second of our stay, will definitely recommend and come for a visit again.
The house is great for a family vacation. It makes travel so much more easy because they supply everything.
What we expected and more, especially the 2 fridges and all the crockery. We will definitely recommend this place and come back to it again as it was worth the monies.
Accommodation was pretty clean and tidy. This is first a family home and is priced accordingly. The deck and it's view is a great feature, and what you want in Pringle Bay! Nice having 2 large fridge freezers and all the bits and bobs one needs for food and fun. Less than 10 minute walk to the beach. Thank you for sharing your home with us!
Wonderful holiday.
Fully equipped and gorgeous views. I would definitely go back.
I'll definitely go back to The Mermaid's Tail again.
We really got value for money. This was the fist time ever that we as a family have been on holiday that we got everything. Kitchen well equipped, even spices and beverages. Bathrooms well kept with enough toilet paper, tissues, shampoo, body wash, etc. You don get this at hotels anymore. Wash room and and and ... too much to tell. Lastly we had friends over while staying there and the landlord was so accommodating. Thank you very much, Paul and Jenny.
Fun for the whole family. They unit had all we needed, and was well presented upon arrival. The welcome note was an awesome personal touch. Having a young child and then teenagers, they were all well entertained the entire weekend. Only thing for me, was a wood burning braai place, which we understand why it cannot be done, but that is me being silly, as there is nothing else that was wrong. Unfortunately for us the weather did not play the part, and got nice and warm the morning we left. That is all that did not go our way.
Just would like to thank Paul and Jenny. We really enjoyed our stay. Everything was perfect.
Will still recommend friends and family to use the mermaid tail for a getaway holiday
It was better than what I expected
The place is absolutely beautiful.
Place was fantastic. Great getaway for family, everything you need is available.
My stay was absolutely amazing! Planning on going soon again.
Our stay was perfect. The house is very clean and everything you need is there. We really enjoyed every second. Thank you Paul, Jenny and Lamson for your good service.
Beautiful place, everything was as I was expected it to be. Friendly owner,made sure that we knew everything about the place before we got there. The owners thought of everything, towels, bedding, mosquito sprays, spices, toys for kids and pool and more. Would definitely go back and recommend to others.
We had such a great stay at the Mermaid's tail. Although our weekend came with bad weather, everything was there to make it as cozy as possible. Cuddly, warm and cosy. Neat and clean.
Such a beautiful and neat place. Really wonderful. I'd book it again any day. I didn't meet the owners or Lamson, but they sound like wonderful people.
Hallo Jenny, Paul en Lamson. Baie dankie vir die sjampanje en tekens, ek waardeer die moeite wat julle gedoen het om my spesiale dag soveel meer spesiaal te maak. Ons het dit regtig geniet om daar te bly en sal beslis terugkom. Al my vriende was ook baie gelukkig met die plek en het gesê hulle sal beslis ook weer kom. Weereens dankie.
The whole experience was warm and wonderful. Felt like home from home.
No complains of any kind. Comfortable and beautiful. Thank you.
I will without hesitation or thought return to Mermaid's Tail. The attention to detail is phenomenal. We felt welcome and what a beautiful home!
