Testimonials

  • “Good morning Carene. I hope you are keeping well. I wanted to say a BIG thank you for arranging and managing our accommodation in December.  The house Constantia Views Villa Wilderness was absolutely stunning, and we loved every single thing about it. Also, the process through you was seamless and so well executed. It was an absolute pleasure doing business with you.” Helen & family, December 2023
  • “Hi Carene, It was a wonderful trip! And throughout, you were there for us with support, recommendations, and you made us feel like you truly wanted us to have the best possible experience. I can’t imagine anyone else doing such a fabulous job! You really went above and beyond. You can count on a glowing review and recommendations at any opportunity.” Simone & Anthony, May 2023
  • “I’d highly recommend Hello Garden Route who assisted us with a recent getaway in Sedgefield which was excellent value. Carene was friendly and a great help with the booking, organising the best rate for us and prompt refund of the deposit afterwards. The house manager, Wayne, was punctual and helpful too – showing us the basics on arrival, assisting with a telephone query on his Saturday night and seeing us off afterwards. The place itself – Sedgefield Views Holiday House – was a spacious, sparkling clean and luxuriously furnished 4 bedroom abode made with well cared for timber. It had magnificent views and all the extras advertised, including ample solar backup for appliances during loadshedding. Our family of 5 had a magical time there and we were also very appreciative of the special treats on arrival. Thank you for everything!” Justine & Family, April 2023
  • “Beautiful place, seaview and nature at Victoria Bay Holiday Cottage. We really felt so welcome and will definitely come visit again when visiting SA. Also recommend to all our families and friends. Would have stayed longer if we could. Everything in top condition and really enjoyed the jacuzzi, braai/kuier area and games. Carene really friendly and beautiful person and really went out of her way to assist us with even the smallest requests at all times. This is really one of the best guesthouses we’ve stayed in and we’ve stayed in a few. This was really such a nice memory that we can take with us to New Zealand. Thanks Carene and Wayne.” Teresia & Family, April 2023
  • “Kleinkrantz Beach Villa is the perfect escape for friends and family. Carene and Wayne are the most accommodating and understanding hosts, who literally go above and beyond for their guests. I think staying at their place has been my favourite spot of my life! The villa itself is fantastic and spotless, you will find everything you need there, INCLUDING A WELCOME CHOCOLATE! It’s right in the beach and has an quaint pool. The upstairs bonfire area is something I never knew I needed until I checked in. Tip, if you’re going as a group of friends, run for the master bedroom. It is so worth the stairs. Thank you Carene and Wayne for giving us an official home away from home in the Garden Route.” Zizi, December 2022

They say dynamites comes in small packages and indeed I have just been blown off by a dynamite. Thank you very much for arranging and plotting murder together with my wife, I seriously still don’t have words to thank you for nice package that you presented to us. I appreciate your input and it has brought love and happiness to our family.  I know you took hours to arrange this and I really enjoyed every little bit of each and every moment. The arrangement/relay was perfectly organized from one place to another, I was totally blown off by beauty of the Western Cape. Keep on doing a good job not only to us but to other clients as well. Your name will always be remember when we talk about the Birthday Gift Trip. God Bless!” Nickson Mohlomi, South Africa
