Reviewed Oct 30, 2025We had a wonderful stay at Oom Piet accommodation — everything was great, the beautiful sea view made it extra special, and the visit to a nearby wine farm plus the close proximity to shops and restaurants were a real bonus.
It’s not something I disliked, but I’d recommend providing an extra-length bed for taller guests.

Reviewed Sep 17, 2025Nuestro objetivo era pasar la noche tras el viaje y excursiones desde Ciudad del cabo para las actividades que íbamos a hacer al dia siguiente por la mañana. Llegamos al final de la tarde-un atardecer maravilloso!. Teníamos una habitación con dos dormitorios y cocina. Estaba impecable de limpia, y se nota muy cuidado todo aunque algunas cosas eran un poco antiguas, pero todo muy cuidado, hasta el ultimo detalle en la cocina por ejemplo, cortinas nuevas,... Hacia frio y tenían además de la calefaccion unas mantas eléctricas debajo de las sabanas que nos salvaron la noche! Debe de estar muy bien con mejor tiempo, porche con mesa y bbq para cada uno de los "apartamentos". Muy tranquilo, pero estábamos prácticamente solos, no sé cómo será con mas gente.
Poca calefaccion, si hubieramos pasado más tiempo en el apartamento, no solo ir para dormir, hubiésemos pasado frio. Una lástima que con todo el cariño y atención que se nota le ponen los propietarios, la cocina americana desluce un poco- con una mano de pintura para actualizar los azulejos, le hubiera dado otro aspecto a todo el apartamento.
