Provider-sourced guest reviews.
The beds were super comfortable as we had amazing sleep. The lounge area couch was super comfortable as well as the heating function in the lounge area. The bathrooms were spacious and showers were amazing. The outdoor entertainment and braai area were exceptional. There were plenty of pillows and blankets and towels for this winter month. This was beyond beautiful.
The kitchen cupboards was not very clean, including the inside of the kitchen cupboards. The main bedroom heating function on the aircon was not working as it was blowing cold air.
It was in police area, and the security was tight.
The one thing was not good , the electricity was gone during the time where need to prepared out for church, as we book to attend church conference
Very comfortable and perfect location for Comrades!
The dishes weren’t all clean
Our stay at Oak House in Hillcrest was nothing short of exceptional. The house is absolutely beautiful, spacious, and truly feels like a home away from home. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered, making it a comfortable and welcoming place to relax and unwind. The tranquility of the property is one of its greatest features. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful family getaway or a place to recharge, Oak House provides the perfect setting. The amenities are outstanding. The braai area is fantastic for entertaining, the bathrooms are luxurious and beautifully maintained, and the collection of books and games provides endless enjoyment for both adults and children. A special mention must go to Roy, the owner, who was incredibly helpful, accommodating, and attentive throughout our stay. His hospitality made the experience even more memorable. I genuinely believe it is a privilege to have the opportunity to stay in a property of this quality. I highly recommend Oak House to anyone visiting Hillcrest and looking for comfort, peace, and an unforgettable stay.
Loved everything
Everything is top tier
Nothing.
I loved everything about the property but mostly it’s owner/host Roy. He is truly a great man who ensures that his every guest feels welcome, happy and safe. I felt as if it was home away from home. Checking out was the hardest because of having to accept the fact that I had to leave this amazing place😅🤞🏽
no breakfast was supplied, the location is great
the hot water just needs attention, dish clothes are a necessity to wash dishes with, a set of pyrex dishes can be supplied for warming up food and storing food, I did point out the problem with the washing machine to the owner as we couldn't use it,
We had free roam, we could come and go as we liked, and we had plenty of room
The kitchen was not that well equipped, We did not have any Tupperware bowls to store our food in for the next day, and there was no grater for the cheese
The house was well-equipped, neat and suited the needs of three couples as a base in the area.
No complaints.
House is beautiful Clean In a quite environment

Main bathroom and garden area
Home away from home, excellent 👌
Location was great, the house was fully equipped, comfortable and safe. The owner also turned up the water heating for the shower 😀
The location and how well equipped the accomodation was. The stay was comfortable and quiet, a real home away from home.
The only small gripe was that the hot water didn't last long enough.
Quiet, well designed and clean. Beautiful experience
The unit was very comfortable for a family of 5. The lounge was nice and spacious.
Just a pleasure. Will make use of it when I in that area any day.
Excellent value
It was perfect for any experience
It liked everything
The host was very friendly and helpful. The property was nice and big and the beds were comfortable
The cleanliness did not meet our expectations. There weren’t enough glasses and crockery and there was no fencing to keep our dogs separate from the rest of the property. Although we did enjoy our stay and the host did make a plan to corner our section off
The house was very neat and clean.
The TV was not working properly (Netflix & Showmax)

Oak House is a very well equipped, beautifully decorated home, we were very comfortable and loved the layout and decor.. Checkin and check out were a breeze. We will most definitely be back.
Nothing except we would loved to have stayed longer
The house is clean and has everything you need. Its home away from home indeed. The house is in a quiet area which is very good for relaxing.
The fridge is not working properly, most of our food went off and we had to throw it away.
Spacious accomodation
Dishes were not clean in cupboards. Hot water stopped after 2 people showered.
Perfect location Peace and quiet
Oakhouse should be fenced in

A home away from home when my family needed it most !
We had the pleasure of staying at Oakhouse for our wedding, and it was an absolutely amazing experience for my entire family and me. The accommodation is not only beautiful but also conveniently located close to our wedding venue, making it the perfect choice for us.From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Roy and Myrea, who were incredibly kind and accommodating. They went above and beyond to ensure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. One of the standout aspects of our stay was their graciousness in allowing visitors, which meant we could share special moments with friends and family leading up to our big day.The rooms were immaculate and beautifully furnished, providing a cozy and relaxing environment for everyone. The amenities were top-notch, and the attention to detail was evident throughout the property. Our stay at Oakhouse made our wedding experience even more memorable, and we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. We highly recommend Oakhouse to anyone looking for exceptional accommodation with outstanding hospitality. Thank you, Roy and Myrea, for making our stay so special! Sharon & Family

Wow. What an incredible spot. Location is perfect. Between Hillcrest & Waterfall. Very quiet, peaceful and Zen. The House is a great size, loved the manicured garden where we could have a good old South African "braai" BBQ. The bedrooms are well kitted out and very comfortable. Kitchen well stocked and user friendly. There is even a laundry area. The lounge is big with a large L shaped lounge suite and dining table and chairs. All the comforts of home. The lamps and finishes are beautiful details that just finish things off. I can say so much more but do yourself a favor and book. Roy has been very accommodating to 4 overwhelmed women and 2 little boys who arrived from New Zealand and the UK respectively. (Family emergency) Highly Recommend
No negative comments to report, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
I liked the whole house but mostly the ensuit and the dinning
The running out of hot water was to quick
Roy is the best host✅
Nothing, everything was absolutely perfect
The double shower . The braai area
Musty smells in the 2 bedrooms downstairs And the kitchen was awful. Cupboards had a bad odour
Very comfortable and well equipped property, the owner couldn’t have been more helpful. Brazilian (charcoal) available as well as full kitchen facilities, including an air fryer, you just provide the groceries. It was clean and had everything we needed as a family.
No issues at all with the property, there was a bit of neighbourhood noise early mornings (dogs barking, traffic) otherwise it was really good.
Nothing
Felt like home away from home. We had to make an emergency booking due to family in hospital and within an hour we were able to book in. Roy was extremely accommodating and helpful with all of our needs. The place was clean, fully furnished even with a washing machine and tumble dryer which was perfect for an emergency trip. Would recommend this for anyone.
Brilliantly presented, very comfortable and even better than presented.
Clean and beautiful. Lights for loadshedding. Loadshedding schedule provided. Communication all the way.
the place looked exactly like the pictures; the Host gave me the best hospitality. cleanliness and neatness were the best. i loved everything about this place and yet to visit again, I had the best 4 day stay.
Area and closer to my kids school
Nothing
Not applicable, it was self catering
the owner could have told us in time that the helper is only available in the morning, we didn't have a helper for the duration of our stay
Loved the space and braai area. We had such a lovely family dinner. Roy was exceptional, I was able to contact him with ease as though I knew him forever. The home was absolutely well kept and had everything we needed. Truly we felt and home that on check out day it was a bitter sweet moment.
Peaceful, wonderful place to have a restful stay. Roy was very accommodating. House has everything you would need for a weekend stay. Great yard space if you are bringing your furry friend.
