Reviews for Villa Jaime Self Catering

Review 1:Very rustic. Roof was leaking. Unit was very dark. Lighting poor. Toilet room very small. Shower area also very cramped. Had to descend 25 stairs. Maybe it was just one unit like this. Not a happy experience.

Review 2:The room in the basement of the villa had a very strange smell. This smell was also in the covers of the bed.

Review 3:Wonderful tropical garden. Spacious room and kitchen. Bit old fashioned interior. Kitchen very Well equiped. Beautiful view. Great shower. Comfortable beds.

Review 4:The room smelt sour - like a coastal home that hasn't been freshened regularly. We worked very late on Friday evening and were hoping to sleep in on Saturday but the noise levels from the cottage next door prevented that.

Review 5:Linen was clean, bathroom clean. Hosts didn't complain about a late check in.

Review 6:Wireless connection was very bad and took us 4 days to get a connection. Not enough hot water, and water pressure was very poor in the shower. Very hard for elderly people to carry suitcases up and down.

Review 7:We were left alone, so no pressure to get up early. Proximity to facilities and the beach were very good.

Review 8:The room I got was "under" the house with verandah on another level. No aircon, no spare loo roll, no shampoo, no light on verandah, no hairdryer. TV colour and sound needs sorting. I was very disappointed. Had a stuffy smell in the room.

Review 9:My car had a safe garage. There was nothing outstanding.

Review 10:That we could't stay longer, some of us don't get leave...

Review 11:Pictures on the site doesn't do justice to this comfy villa! Felt like a home away from home. Nothing over the top, yet everything you need. Would definitely recommend.

Review 12:Kitchen was lacking an extension plug which are using the microwave and small oven too difficult.

Review 13:very pleasant over night stay on the way through Ballito. Helpful staff and comfortable rooms.

Review 14:We stayed in the honey moon suit for 2 nights and enjoyed the place so much we decided to stay an extra week. Jaimé, her family and Jane are just the sweetest people and so helpful. Yvonne, Michael and Nelson make sure your stay is clean and pleasant. And if that is not enough, the view is stunning!

Review 15:Its just when we entered thrue our garage there was dog dropings on the garage floor.my wife never like it.bt oterwize it was a great experience.

Review 16:The place was set in a tranquil area and the back yard and rooms where very nice.the staf were helpful and friendly

Review 17:The kitchen area was pretty dark - could use more lighting - but well equipped so it's all good!

Review 18:The cottage we were in was very private with a great view of the ocean - very spacious. The location was close to the beach which was a bonus as we went there every day.

Review 19:Our holiday wasnt long enough sadly.

Review 20:An immediate concern showed by the owners at our queries. Absolute attention to detail for a one bedroom villa.variety of options i.e skottle,webber AND poiki!romantic and private. candles and bamboo essence fragrance d room. And no admin fee! Well done Villa Jaime and thank you.

Review 23:I didn't stay another night.

Review 24:Great staff, spacious, clean, amazing view. Felt comfortable and safe. Enjoyed hanging out on the terrace in the late afternoon until after it got dark. Host gave good tips on where to eat.

Review 25:Dogs were very offputting.Thought i was going to be eaten at times. Gardner left external security gate open which was nerve wrecking.Spoke to him. Water pipes to shower needs checking as I had a very poor flow when showering.

Review 26:Room very well organised. Owner very accommodating.

Review 27:We were very happy with Villa Jaime and would not hesitate to recommend it to family and friends. Great location, warm hosts and big room with a view of the ocean.

Review 28:The bed was very spacious and big. Had problems sleeping so far from my husband.

Review 29:I appreciated the home environment. Very quiet and peaceful. We loved the accommodation, the space and the setting of the place. Beautiful hand painted pictures and the owners are really lovely people . out of the many places we visit this was the first comfortable bed and pillows. Down feather pillows. Very unusual. You are a valued guest and not a number on a customer lit..

Review 55:We only stayed 1 night but the setting was excellent and the views awesome, would definitely come back and spend longer, well done

Review 56:Nothing at all

Review 57:the owners were so helpful and friendly it was a very pleasant stay. The views were magnificent and the room was very nice.

Review 58:The owners were very friendly and helpful.

Review 59:We couldn't stay longer

Review 60:The friendliness of the staff and lovely view of the ocean and the verycomfortable bed

Review 61:Nothing!

Review 62:Very friendly hosts, make you feel very at home! They gave us a better room at no extra cost.

Review 63:No communication with the manager or owners. Nobody was interested as to whether we were settled in or comfortable.

Review 64:The privacy we had as a couple. It was just a relaxed weekend getaway without any noise. I loved the atmosphere and green environment. Would love to visit again.

Review 65:- When we arrived we weren't put in the room we had booked and put down deposit for, instead was given the smallest room due to "booking.com error". - Was not greeted by owner and did not see owner to discuss the room/payment until last day of stay. - Very frustrating and disappointing that we were expecting a large room with balcony and instead had neither.

Review 66:The property was of poor quality, bad and dangerous electrics, toilet overflowing and wrong marketing as the two bedroom cottage was NOT 150sqm more like 50sqm and we thought we had use of a pool but NO. Shame but I would suggest the property needs to be renovated and truly marketed.

Review 67:The staff was very professional and friendly

Review 68:Kitchen was a bit crowded but we made do!

Review 69:This was a great space for us! Bathroom, main room was perfect. Staff were amazing and we would love to come again and stay here.

Review 70:Well the day we arrived there the weather was very bad. It was so windy that we could not do anything.

Review 71:I like the fact that we met the owner Jaime who is an excellent person. She goes out of her way to make the guest happy i was very impressed with the way she conducts herself.

Review 72:Jaime and Meyer went out of their way to ensure that our stay was comfortable and that all our needs were met. I felt at home and would definitely recommend Villa Jaime to family and friends. Look forward to my next visit real soon.

Review 73:The property is not friendly for elderly people as it is on a very steep property and there are far too many stairs for them. This did not show up on the ad for them on your site. Also being in Natal they have far too many plants that encourage mosquitoes. My Mother-in-law was nearly eaten alive. They should get rid of some of their banana plants and plants that hold water in their leaves which mozzies love to propagate in. Also too much in your face about religion.

Review 74:The parrot! A bit too chatty - but lots of fun!!

Review 75:Great location, we had the upstairs suite, with excellent balcony and lovely sea views. Quite adequately equipped sefl catering, Very helpful staff and superb value for money in this busy seaside town.

Review 76:The only thing that made me a bit uneasy, was the fact that the only fire extinguisher which was available in the log cabin, was empty when we got to the premises. I believe that comfort & environment is a key ingredient when choosing a holiday venue. However safety should also be a top priority as well. More ready to use fire extinguishers should be present at log cabin due to the fact that it is made of wood.

Review 77:The topical scenery & the atmosphere around you at the Log cabin was lovely. It was also very private, it only dawned upon us, the day we left, that we were actually staying in someone else’s back yard. I would definitely use Villa Jamie, the next time I am in that area.

Review 78:The bathroom had recently been painted and there was no ventilation so the smell carried into the room which made it difficult to sleep.

Review 79:It was a lovely environment. Jaime was very friendly. The view of the beach was beautiful.

Review 80:I was of the opinion, as you are, that Villa Jaime was a hotel; it is in fact a B&B and should be advertised as such, so that was disappointing. I do not believe that it is good value for money.

Review 81:We rented Garden Unit 1 and we loved it,its truly a home away home but with that special touch,the place is beautiful with beautiful sea views,kitchen well equipped you can cook anything you want,loved the fact that the owners are there when you need them.Truly awesome going back again in September.

Review 82:Not much to find fault with. Toilet - very cramped, though.

Review 83:It is quite a unique setting. You are surrounded by many lush trees creating bush atmosphere, but you have sea view. We really enjoyed the weekend there, wish it was longer.

Review 84:Convenient, lovely view, good quality accommodation, really enjoyed our stay
