N/A

Close and easy access to Willard Beach. Comfortable, spacious and relaxing.

Nothing not to like, it was what we were looking for.

I absolutely loved my stay

This was our second stay in Sands Beach Breaks Ballito Manor and we would love to go again. Sandy is always so accommodating. We requested that the two single beds in the one room be made into one king bed with a mattress converter, but the maintenance lady forgot to do it. We called Sandy upon our arrival and she immediately had the lady come back to do the bed conversion. The unit is beautifully furnished and comfortable. The view is awesome, there is safe and secure undercover parking, direct beach access and it's just an overall lovely holiday destination. Thank you Sandy!

The flat had all amenities and excellent sea view.

The owner Sandy van Rooyen was very unhelpful. I just asked a simple question about where to get the key and the only response was read your instruction guide. We switched the ceiling fan on and the remote fell off the wall. I let the owner know and the response was that it is brand new. I responded that the magnetic strip came loose. I received no response. There is a bright light shining from the corridor so we tried to pull the blinds closed and it fell off the wall. We waited 2 days for it to be repaired. The owner never responded to us or kept us updated so I ceased communicating with her. We spoke to her via the cleaning lady. The.vwashing machine didn't work and now the owner is blaming us for breaking it and to fix a rickety table. There are also warning signs and threats of being fined all over the apartment. To the extent that I didn't even say anything about the aircons that don't work Sandy made the overall stay unpleasant.

The view

The unit was beautiful and comfortable, the sea view is fantastic!

Nothing

Beautiful apartment, lovely views and sleep with the sound of the sea. Sandy is a delightful host.

Absolutely nothing.

The aircon was very poor. There were threatening notices advising that if the power tripped due to the use of the aircon, we would be responsible for the cost of the electricians call out and repairs. We were staying in a beachfront apartment with both heat and humidity were the norm. It was often uncomfortable. There was no trolley to transport the luggage from the basement garage to the apartment.

Views and how stunning the layout is.

Loved everything

Air conditioning was not working in all rooms. System needs to be upgraded. Very old and pipes likely corroded thus leaking refigerant causing high output temperatures.

Spacious apartment, ideally located with direct access to the beach. Had everything we needed and was clean. There's also lots of restaurants and shopping complexes within walking distance of the apartment.

It would have been nice if guests could use the washing machine and dryer since a beach holiday inevitably means wet clothes!

Neat, modern and spacious apartment eith exceptional views.

There was nothing we didnt like.

The location, views and friendly host. The place was clean and cleaning staff is also friendly.

Nothing

Close proximity to the beach

Very neat and clean accommodation, the unit is well stock with all the essentials. The property is well maintained with a beautiful ocean view. Easy beach access and located close to other shops for everything you will need.

Everything was excellent

Every thing about my stay was perfect. The helper Phila was amazing. The view, the water pressure, the gas braai, the swimming pool, the security, everything just met my expectation and more.

like everything

What an amazing gem. The proximity to the beach was exactly what we were looking for. The apartment was beautifully appointed, well equipped and so comfy. Sandy is a great host - we had all the info we needed. And the security guard was the perfect introduction - friendly, welcoming and so helpful. Thank you.

The fact that we had to leave.

The service was excellent; the room was clean and beautiful. nice location.

N/A

Location and view was 10/10

Awesome location with epic sunrises over the ocean. The unit is clean and well equipped.

Location was very good

Outdoor balcony light

Close to the beach, excellent view, the ambience, the unit was big and value for money, I loved 2 bathrooms 🚻 close to a shopping mall. Excellent security

Nothing

Great location (unbeatable in Ballito for proximity to the beach and shops). Host responsive on whatsapp.

Aircon system very ineffective, it is set to a constant temp (21 deg) and doesn't work properly. I'm sure the unit is very hot in summer months. Towels could be changed more often.

Beautiful setting and view, very well located. Spacious apartment and comfortable. Impeccable gardens and pool area. Excellent, tight security. Safe parking. Thank you for our short stay.

The location was great - right by the beach. The unit has everything you need from aircon, airfryer, Netflix, wifi etc. The security guards were all helpful and very friendly especially Nicholas.

Too many rules of what you can't do such as changing the setting of the aircon, usage of certain appliances/devices etc. It almost felt like one was in a boarding school.

Well appointed and very clean. Good space and always good to have 2.5 bathrooms.

Nothing.

Beautiful view, with great balcony. Rooms are big and neat. Great with 2.5 bathrooms, with 2 of them with the showers and baths.

The apartment was extremely clean and spacious. It had all the amenities mentioned. The view from the balcony is spectacular! Sandy is an exceptionally kind and helpful host. Thank you so much for hosting us, we will definitely be back.

breakfast n/a locattion 4/5

the aircon didnt work and i reported it the day we left they found the peacy board faulty the beach water dirty not allowed to swim ///got nothing to do with the accomodation it would be nice to have someone to help you carry all the luggage to your room when you on the top floors

The place was amazing. I enjoyed everything about it. EVERYTHING

Nothing

Sally, the owner is incredibly friendly and went out of her way to accommodate my request. The accomidation is spacious and beautiful with everything you may need to unwind and rest. The view is spectacular and the apartments have access directly on the main beach. Security was top notch with the friendliest of staff. I will definitely stay there again

Great Location. Beach Access, 100m away from Shops. Well maintained property and a definite investment opportunity should you wish to buy in Ballito. Great Views from the balcony, and a awesome pool to cool down in. Basement parking for your ride. 5 stars for location, service. Check in was confirmed via Whatsapp with a video walkthough to show that the place was cleaned and ready for access.

No negative feedback. This is a well run, managed complex which is highly maintained. Constant communication with my host who checked in to see if all was in order. Breakage deposit paid back 24 hours after we left the premises. I will definitely go back for another stay.

Location is perfect. Near everything

The property was amazing, with access to the pool and the beach. The apartment was clean and absolutely gorgeous. Our host made the experience such a pleasure and has a book with the nearest restaurants as well as activities one can do in the area.

The Apartment was too wet cause it’s directly on the Beach. The floor feels wet all the time. Laundry and towel never get dry

There was a little confusion on arrival, we were directed to the wrong property at first but it was sorted out

Nothing from the host and property.

The location was amaizing, it was a few steps from the beach. It was very quiet and peacefull. We felt safe enough to allow the kids to go to the pool area alone.

No TV in the Main Bedroom, The DSTV didnt have all channels, we're sporting fanatics and not being able to watch sports was a great dissapointment.

Perfect location. Very nice apartment with safe parking and access control. Sandy went out of her way for my mum to convert the two single beds in the second room to a king bed with a mattress converter.

Kitchen a little bit sparsely equipped for bowls, water jug etc. but fair enough seeing that the rest of the apartment is wonderful. Will not deter me from returning.

Nice and clean, excellent view, everything one would need for a night or two stay over is catered for.

This is an exception point - just to mention - my business colleague is disabled and wheel chair bound and couldn't access the back bathroom due to the door not opening wide enough, and in the front bedroom could not access the toilet as blocked by the other toilet basin adjacent. Maybe a thought to add a wall rail and or invert the door direction or something to assist disabled people that may stay in future.

The property is spacious and the location is fantastic! The host is very accommodating.

Everything was perfect there is nothing I didn’t like

The place is stunning, very very high quality living

The seaview, the luxury living

The location was great and the apartment was spacious. The property was secure with a good access system to enter and exit. The beach was also accessible.

The major appliances need to be upgraded.

Everything about the place..The view and the place is super gorgeous and we have no complaints 🥹

Everything about it..The host was so helpful and the cleaning lady was so friendly too

Perfect place. Clean and comfy bed. Property is right on the beachfront with beautiful views.

Nothing

I liked everything. The apartment was clean and lovely. The building was clean, safe, secure and security staff were helpful. The sea views are out of this world.

Nothing

The location was fantastic - lovely views. The apartment is exactly as shown on the ads. Beautiful spacious en suite bathrooms, great kitchen well stocked with good cutlery and crockery, the TV works well, good lounger, and I particularly loved the spacious balcony and main bedroom facing the garden & sea. Sandy, our host was SUPER helpful and immediately available when needed - thank you Sandy! The security at the complex is very good and the pools downstairs very inviting. Everything is super clean.

The second bedroom faces the hall and needs some block-out blinds to block the light from the hall which shines all night long and both beds need new matresses. It was a bit sad not to have access to the one clothing cupboard which was under lock & key for the owner's benefit. The 2nd bedroom might be fine for children, but not for adults. Some ground coffee for one or 2 nights in the kitchen would be great (seeing that there is a bodum available)

The Apartment absolutely matched the pictures 100% and more, it was practical all we needed were there! Close to the beach and shops, appliances were spot on. I can honestly say this was the best stay I have had in my life, 100% comfort and practicality and should I say the view and the apartment, ABSOLUTELY STUNNING! Will definitely be making this a yearly trip to this specific apartment! And thanks to Sandy for making it such an easy and efficient experience and handling us with absolute friendliness and respect! I would HIGHLY recommend a stay!

Liked everything absolutely no complaints!

The accommodation was stunning, and coupled with perfect proximity to shops and beach meant you did not have to travel, so you could just relax! The staff were super helpful and so friendly.

There was not anything during our stay that we did not like!

Beautiful seaviews in luxury appartment close to beach and within walking distance from shops. Unit was serviced daily by friendly staff and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable.

Even the bad weather wasn't a problem as the unit was really comfortable!

Lovely spacious apartment in a great location- close to beach & shops. Very comfortable, clean and well appointed. Good security, generator & great view!

The apartment looks exactly like it does in the pictures. It is within walking distance of restaurants and malls. The staff, including the security guards, were helpful and pleasant.

The condominium was clean and had a good view of the ocean and was close to grocery store.

We had to wait 20 minutes to get a code to get onto the grounds even though we had the code to get into the room. The underground parking was unavailable as they were doing work in it? With the power outages we were without water and lighting and the only way to cook was to use bbq that was down 4 flights of stairs ( no elevator) down by the pool using charcoal.

Exceeded our expectations highly recommended...nice view ,very clean friendly security,private beach etc surely coming back

To leave

View was amazing, secure parking, walking distance to beach and shops. The security was so welcoming and friendly. We enjoyed drinking coffee on the balcony taking in the view

Everything was great!

No breakfast...

We understand how difficult it is to clean a unit when guests are departing and new guests are arriving. However, we feel that when arriving a little earlier in the day, check-in time at 3pm was late for us, as we we had to leave our previous unit by 9.30am and therefore we were twiddling our thumbs for a considerable amount of time before being allowed to enter the unit at 3pm. Booking.com allowed us to put arrival time from 1pm, but our request was declined. In spite of this, the unit was wonderful, clean, and with great amenities and location!
