Speechless - And not in a good way.

We booked for our anniversary weekend. We chose this place because it looked like it was centrally located, had a fireplace in the room (as advertised on the picture). However this soon changed. Upon check in we were welcomed and told our car needs to be parked outside on the street. I asked if it is safe as one dont just leave a vehicle to be...”well” said the guy, “just dont leave any valuables in the car”, thats a given, “ok but will they steal my car”? “We cant be too sure”. We continued to our room. The room layout and size was exactly as advertised and was clean. However, very unwelcoming due to the cold weather. This did not bother us too much as we have a fireplace right? No! Fireplace is not allowed to be used, this was not communicated prior to check in. No fireplace, no heater?? Not even a braai area as the unit next to us, 1, had a braai but dedicated to them on their balcony. I immediately contacted the host to ask if there is anyway to assist, still waiting for an answer 1 day later. After reading about the crime in Paternoster and the thought of a cold and uncomfortable night,  we thought best to pack up and go home due to no feedback from the Ops Manager Marie. On our arrival home at 17:00 I messaged the Host, Kevin, and informed him of my experience. He read my message, no reply. I think the worst part of this experience was not only the false advertising(on the photos it is clear that there is a fireplace and even has wood stacked in it) which I did not preceive as only for display purposes... (Side note, not a major issue, but they advertise amenities such as salt and oil, still looking for that as well). What got to me was the complete disrespect and absence of communication, really not what hospitality is about. I dont really like posting negative reviews however seeing that I have tried to resolve this matter with Marie and Kevin with no prevail, here it is. 

Tips for being in Hospitality: Communication is key. Always try and make a plan. Had Marie phoned me and offered me a heater or said I can also use the braai next door, this might have actually turned out well, yet she decided to ignore me.

Well done Kevin and Marie! Keep it up.

Do not visit! Sea Castle, St Augustine Rd, Paternoster

Website images make the location and views look beautiful - but in reality the property is situated next to a site housing low class people, with garbage lying all over. The only 'view' is out the front door - no seating available to even enjoy it.

Disappointing surroundings

The apartment was obviously decorated on a tight budget.  No heater or aircon, no carpets in the bedroom or bathroom, only 2 pillows, very uncomfortable furniture.  Look a bit further for places to stay in Paternoster.

Kestrel View Paternoster

Its positioned in an excellent location few steps away from the beach and a short 3 min walk from the local Harbour. Laying in your bed at night and early mornings can hear the sounds of the waves breaking. What i would suggest for the amount charged could you please supply/ install the following to make the stay more comfortable and convenient for future stays.
Install ceiling fans to cool the place down and disperse the heat.
Supply a removable braai grid at least, as their was nothing except for a fixed small adjustable heavy grid which is not convenient to place your edibles on.
Furthermore it was a great stay. Thx
 

Great Place and Sea views

Such a joyful weekend spent at Sandpiper in Paternoster. Spotless, spacious, perfectly equipped beach house - slept 6 adults and 3 kids comfortably. Fantastic kitchen, well kitted-out for everything, even the kids. Generous living areas and beautifully positioned braai verandah overlooking the ocean. Comfortable beds, great showers & big baths for the kiddos. Excellent security too so felt completely safe all weekend. We want to go back!

Family beach house heaven at Sandpiper in Paternoster

I fell inlove with this apartment as well as Paternoster on this trip. 
The apartment is so quaint, clean and in a great location close to restuarants and the beach. You  open the door and you can see the ocean. Well done on the decor and thank you Marie and Kevin for a lovely stay, I would definitely come back. Highly recommend. 


Beautiful Apartment,Great Location.

Beautifully decorated and ultra-modern unit! Great finishes. We love spending time in Paternoster thank you for the home away from home! 
Loved the sea-view from our “stoep”! We will definitely be back!

Seacastle Paternoster

Great location. Quiet, friendly and in walk distance from shops and restaurants.

Keys pick up and drop off was easy and well managed. 

We would definitely consider returning as the place was comfortable and well equipped 


Awesome

Beautiful loft apartment with well equipped kitchen and a patio/braai area outside overlooking the bay. The apartment is open planned together with the bathroom. There is only a bath and no shower, which was more than fine, though I would have liked to have a connection on the tap for rinsing. It may even be a better alternative for the drought at present. Otherwise, a really lovely stay. Close to a whole lot of restaurants. You won’t be bored and you’ll sleep in a beautiful apartment.

Stylish and well equipped

Was a pleasant stay, unit was nice and clean. A fan/aircon would of been nice with the heat, also an umbrella for the outside table and chairs would help. We had a problem with ants which was irritating as we didnt know where to put stuff down that the ants couldn't get to.
