BALLITO HILLS , 2 bedroom apartment

Everything

None

The location is very convenient.

The flat was not ready on time. It wasn’t cleaned properly and it was very clear that the previous guests had had a big party. The flat smelt bad and was not properly cleaned. I will not stay here again.

Great property, safe and relaxing

Everything was great and the host was very helpful. Will book again

I loved everything about the place, clean, great location and very comfortable

Comfortable place in a safe location with great access to amenities.

N/a

The hosting was exceptional. The apartment was absolutely exquisite. From a warm welcome to a comfortable stay that actually felt like home. I absolutely love all the mirrors. Ramano is the best host. Everything was provided. Definitely will be booking that apartment all the time! It is highly recommended. ~Jaydene

There was nothing not to like, I loved EVERYTHING!

Great location! Great complex and great facilities

Cockroaches roaming though told it’s seasonal and not able to control them…rather unpleasant

Location, amenities within the estate, size of the apartment and the furnishings

An air conditioner would be a highly welcomed addition, especially given how hot it was during my stay. However, fans were available. Unfortunately, the washing machine did not work and was dirty. Dishwasher had an awful smell, and we avoided using it. Lounge fan was problematic, worked sometimes, other times it did not.

The place was clean, neat & tidy. We enjoyed time at the pool and the food from the clubhouse was good too.

I didnt like that when we got there the cleaning ladies was still busy. I felt like I was intruding.

Best location ever .secure.foid was delicious and affordable. We definitely coming back . Pools .game room.cinema.. The spa .neat gym also

Excellent apartment, well appointed and care taken to make it comfortable and welcoming. Excellent value for money in Ballito.

It's summer, so can't really complain about heat - but similar apartment in the estate had an Aircon. This unit had only ceiling fans in the bedrooms.

Location Size

Beautiful place and clean but there was just this awful smell I didn't understand that triggered sinuses, more like mold smell? I think it's a Balwin properties thing though

I'm happy with everything except the host, such a cold man. Not sure if it had to do with colour or not, couldn't even talk to him about anything as he didn't take my calls and only replied to msgs for gate access. Arrived earlier on Friday due to car rental complications, wanted to ask him to accommodate my bags while I go to the bank to get a replacement card and head back to the airport for car rental, he didn't reply so I went to the house anyway and luckily his cleaner was kind enough to understand and allow me. Tried calling him again to ask if we can extend the booking just until 6pm not overnight (basically few more hours on Sunday) as my flight was delayed to 8pm, he didn't answer my call but instead replied again with the gate pin while the call was still ringing . I booked another place for the day coz I was with the kids and left his premises an hour earlier. But I expected that treatment from the onset bcz the 1 time i spoke to him he rushed my call as though I'm irritating.

Property was beautiful and clean.

We have to buy a remote battery in order for us to watch TV and I tried calling Host he was nowhere to be found not even checking his whatapp since he has guests, I have to wait and wait for the codes in other for to go out.

The mirrors and how spacious it was. I loved everything here

The part where I had to always request for an access code for me to go out. It was an inconvenience especially if you gonna be out after midnight

The location, easy access to things goos in balito

None

Almost everything

Linen not clean Leftovers from the previous guest in the microwave (odour) Bed making noise

Location is good.

Noisy inverter in the flat that did not stop making a noise at night

Everything

Road is noisy in the early morning the cleaner who blow the road from the leaves. Starting 8 o'clock.

The location

That the property did not have Aircon

Everything it was stunning my favorite place to unwind and relax

Nothing

Clean and well appointed. Even has back up Electricity

The apartment was clean, spacious and had a brilliant stoep for a braai. Close to all the local stores and shopping centres (Ballito Mall a mere 2 minute drive). Wonderful gym and Padel courts available at the site as well

There are other apartments extremely close where one could hear all members and families. Having a braai was great, but talking at a normal tone on the stoep in the evening drew looks from other residents indicating we were noisy.

The location is nice and top security. The host was friendly and helpful at the same time.

The following were displeasing 1. Access control issues when we enter and exit the estate, the host sent me the access link to upload my details however the biometrics was not working when we arrived. Sometimes it will work in the evening and then the next day when we try to exit then it will not allow us. This was really frustrating to now having to call the host while there's a long queue behind to ask for a code. 2. The apartment was not readily cleaned when we arrived. The lady was still busy amidst informing the host that will be arriving at 13:30. We arrived +30 mins later than scheduled time and the lady was still cleaning, wet towels were being dried up by the fan having been lined up on the bed. Dishes not packed away, the guest shower still had soap marks. I had to ask the lady to re-do it. I believe this would have been communicated prior so we arrange for a late check in to give the cleaner enough time to clean up properly. 3. Bedroom sheets had brown marks and didn't look thoroughly cleaned. 4. The blanket in the wardrobe made a funny smell I had to remove them from the rooms 5. The bedroom carpet in the guest bedroom also had a bad smell. I had to remove it and place it on the balcony. 6. The host should consider a repellent for ants that has been moving in the kitchen tops from the night we arrived. 7. Towels are old n hard and didn't smell fresh. Maybe getting enough towels to make up for rainy seasons too will help since the cleaner was using a fan to dry them up when we arrived. 8. Swabs are old and left particles when wiping maybe consider replacing them.

Everything about the place in top notch 👌. security is very tight the location made us feel we are in a holiday no noise very quiet

Nothing

It was clean and safe. I forgot my money and the lady that is helping at 1176 deposited it for me for that i very greatful

We agreed with the owner for no noise at between 8pm and 7 am but the neighbour was complaining at 3 while watching soccer

The breakfast was nice and we went to the gym in the facility. We didn't go to the pool because of the weather but I could see that the is perfectly clean and conducive

Nothing, I enjoyed every stay

The location was the best with a secured security... I fell in love with the place. i will definitely be returning soon.

All good

All

Convenient location & not far from main N2 road. Next to large shopping mall. Restaurant & pool on site.

There was no lift so all bags had to be carried up 3 flights of stairs. There is a different QR code each time upon driving into the complex. The complex is built on a hill so there is a lot of uphill walking to get to the restaurant & pool & it is windy!

Great location, spacious and secure apartment. Good facilities on the property.

Stairs, bedding didn't feel clean, no aircon.

The Lifestyle centre was closer could walk to it and convenient for food and entertainment for kids

That i didn't have a cleaner on Sat

Braai facility

The security at the estate, the quietness, the facilities available and the the apartment itself gives you the home away from home feeling.

For a self-catering apartment, they should provide more bowls for salads especially since they have braai facilities.

Clean

No power. To many stairs to climb

There was nothing not to like I’d definitely be back 😍

Location and size of the property

Nothing

Car noise in the morning

Please pay more attention to spring cleaning the Apartment, including showers, drains, sleeper couch, remove expired items. Besides this the apartment is comfortable.

Security, close to mall,in-house restaurant , cinema , pool , kids play area, spa . Our host was the best. place, which is great . Netflix , wifi . Top stay 💯

Location was perfect!

Stairs as we are old people.

I recently stayed at a Ballito holiday apartment, and it was a wonderful experience. The apartment itself was beautiful, offering a comfortable and pleasant atmosphere. The host was very accommodating, making sure all our needs were met and enhancing our overall stay. Highly recommended!

The apartment was pet- friendly and relatively clean.

1. We recently booked for a special weekend but sadly had to vacate the apartment at 10pm on our 1st night because we discovered there was an infestation of ants on the kitchen countertops, balcony and lounge and going into the bedrooms, which was captured on video. It was obvious we couldn't possibly stay for a night even though we booked and paid for two. This was not only very disappointing but very inconvenient to move out late at night. This was not conducive for us but more so for our 6 month old toypom puppy. We called the owner who was very apologetic and promised us a full refund which was R2700 but to date, refused to follow through as only R1080 was refunded, after much delay and excuses. 2.The apartment was on the 2nd floor- too many flights of stairs to climb with luggage and shopping. 3. No air-conditioning in apartment.

The location was great!

I liked everything. Had no challenges.

I like the pool,the outside area is perfect Inside the house it's really beautiful and specious, really love the space

Wau steps, going upstairs was terrible, I don't know why they didn't make lift

From the welcome and the constant communication from Ramano, everything went smoothly and a pleasant stay. Apartment is clean, well furnished, everything works as expected. Washing machine with dryer also provided if staying longer and want to cut down on luggage, all essentials also provided. Access no hassle with key system and host provided enough access codes for easy access in and out for the weekend. Will definitely try book when returning to Durbs. A very happy client 😀😀

Nothing...

The host was very helpfull and friendly. His place was clean and modern.

An aircon might be a good suggestion. However the bedrooms did have a fan so that helped alot. Aircon will be a bonus.

Spacious and clean with beautiful decor. Kids loved the games.

In a very upmarket area, closer to the mall and Thompson’s bay beach

The fact that we couldn’t play music with the doors open even during the day, l would understand if it was late at night so it really didn’t make sense to me that at 1/2pm with a volume so low that you could barely hear from the stairs we were told that we making noise, l couldn’t recommend the place if you want to stay there as a group of friends cause obviously you would want to braai and play music a bit, the securities will come now and again to tell you that u making noise…

Everything is situated inside you don't hv to leave the estate, pool, cinema, spa, gym, restaurant even car wash.

Breakfast not included

There is no air conditioning. Our car was scratched while at our designated parking spot and the host was informed but he never responded.

Location is fine and security is fine,place is modern

No AC , place is like an oven, inverter blows hot air into open area, no fan installed in rhat area. Unit is on 3rd floor,description of unit on bookings.com is very misleading.. I am a candidate for a knee replacement and would never have booked on 3rd floor if description was not misleading.

Everything was great from the location,facilities and also easy to access

I would have loved better towels, those ones are a bit hard cz they’ve been washed a lot of times.

Great place for Good family and friends. Hygiene is 💯. Wish you don't only book a night but 2 so you can have more Fun.

Early Check out 10 o'clock... But then it's Busy.

I was not happy with my stay.for me been a disable person ,to climb up those stairs was a problem 😒.

The whole apartment, comfortable bed and bedsheets, bathroom was so perfect and the whole apartment smells great 👌 m coming back soon for longer stay

The host was very accommodating and readily available to assist. Place is neat as a pin and very modern. The Ballito Hills swimming pool and restaurant area is lovely and kept my 3 yr old busy for hours.

The host was always available and extremely helpful.

The place was too clean, beautiful and the check in was from 9 am...imagine. good value for money.

Everything. This place was good value for money. It was clean,had all the utensils needed including private braai. The estate had a sparkling clean pool and resturant. Towels,bedding everything was tops and absolutely clean.its an excellent place! I give it 100%. I love the private beaches which were close by.

The area doesn't have activities/excursions.i think it's suitable for business visit. If you there for fun hey,you will struggle as there are no fun places or activities in Ballito.
