    A wonderful experience! Our stay was incredibly relaxing and peaceful. We sat on the balcony and enjoyed the views overlooking the ocean. Accommodation is located within walking distance from the beach, restaurants and convenience stores, The bedrooms and bathrooms were clean and neat, the pictures do not do justice to the accommodation because it was beautifully decorated inside. The unit is equipped with WiFi and smart TV and self catering allowing us to cook with sufficient utensils. The owner was very accommodating with a heart of gold. Our stay was nothing short of perfect. Highly recommend this gem of a place to anyone.

    The agent handlinlg the booking on behalf of the property is not customer centric in any way. Her messages to the customer on the rules and procedures is not welcoming at all. It does not create a pleasant and welcoming environment. The booking procedure needs to be handled within her times and convenience and has an attitude when speaking to the customer. Most definitely will not book the unit again due to the experience with the agent. The reason I use Booking.com is for convenience, easy booking system and transparency with the booking. Unfortunately all that is undone when the process mov3s over to the property agent.

    Unit was clean and well kept.

    the stairs and landings were unlit - I brought this to management attention on Friday morning and was advised they’d look into getting it sorted but that never happened.

    we were impressed with the property but we did feel that there probably wasn’t a check after the previous tenants left. insufficient towels for instance, on trying to place one of the smaller curtains in the holder the whole lot came down - I advised the agent and a workman did come to sort it out. I do think these sort of things should be regularly checked.

    No DStv or wifi. That is simply unacceptable! Outdated style- please upgrade the place and the style, it’s a wonderful place it could be so much more. Curtains in the rooms were dirty and didn’t have a nice smell. Estate agent used for this property is a bit rude and inappropriate

    The host she Is extremely rude and difficult to speak to, I've booked many places via Booking.com and have never had this experience before. There were no dishes to use in the kitchen and pots and when I had asked her if there was pots she said yes, we were give one towel to use for 5 days. It's the worse place ever very disappointing.

    The hostess is absolutely rude, had disrespect to me. There was no wifi but Netflix was installed, knowing we have a family stay over. Her communication methods are pathetic. There was a gas braai avaible which had gas for literally 10minutes only. There was water filled in the soap dispensors in bathroom. The balcony windows were dirty. Gave me excuses of loadshedding for me to receive my deposit. This is the worst unit I stayed in Laguna la Crete over 5 years now.

    Laguna la Crete is situated in the best area of uvongo. I am a frequent visitor of Laguna le Crete.

    There was no WIFI in apartment . This should be standard for all apartments. There was no plan in place for load shedding which was disappointing for this type of business and amount we paid. We came for the holidays and to enjoy ourselves but all these days we didn't have electricity all evenings even during the day which was very frustrating. The owner should invest on solar pannels atleast for the lights and plugs. That should make life easy. Non availability of the agent for emergencies. Night before we checkout the apartment, there was pipe burst in the toilet which lead to the apartment to be flooded. There was water in all bedrooms, kitchen, passege and lounge area. The agent could not be reached as she switches her fone to silence after 20h00. We had to clean up for hours as we could not sleep in the house full of water and we did this for hours and we were also expected to checkout at 10h00. We were tired bcs we slept early hours of the morning cleaning the water and pack our begs. We had to drive to Johannesburg being that tires and we are thankful to God that we arrived home safely. I feel that the agent should have shown that she is caring especially after what we had to ho through clearing the water which was not even our job to do. It was like nothing happened or it was our job to clear the water after that pipe burst. I'm still not happy with the matter this was handled by the agent and I'm asking myself if this happened to other visitors from different race, was the treatment hoping to be the same? It was totally unacceptable that we had to clear that water after we found the house flooded. We felt disrespected and mistreated. We went to marget for a vacation not go labour around.

    I liked everything, starting from the location, our room and pool. The only thing that was disappointing was the air conditioners that were not working, I don't know if it was the air con itself or the remote controls.

    The location is great, a beautiful place to be, quiet and safe as well.
