Reviews of Island Cottage


"Lovely view"

(South Africa) Kathy

"Comfortable, clean, new. Nice view. Quiet. Lovely smell in the room when we arrived.
Kitchenette is very small. Perfect for making coffee and a sandwich, but not for cooking a full meal."


"Gasvrye en vriendelike ontvangs by Cottage Island"

(South Africa) De Klerk

"Has been a very nice weekend. Had hospitable and friendly reception. Room painfully neat. Always asked if everything is fine. Everyone greets kindly and asks how is it going. Is to be recommended, for a weekend.
Luderitz."


"Enjoyable stay"

(South Africa) Judi

"Lovely place, clean and tastefully decorated. Pity the wind howled all weekend, so we could not enjoy the lovely balcony."


"Our Luderitz stay"

(South Africa) Ian

"Very clean, in a very good position. Had a good time and would stay here again."


"Shark Island"

Cathy Hackland

"Quaint little town, lovely setting for the guesthouse."


"Fabulous."

Yvonne Coetzee

"We absolutely loved staying at Island Cottage. We were a family travelling and booked 3 very clean cottages, all with awesome views of the ocean. The small personal items that were added to our rooms, made our stay a memorable one. Our only regret, we only stayed one night."


"Friedly Staff and cleanliness of the room when arriving."

Wantie Burger

"Frendliness and cleanliness at arrival."


"The view was fantastic! We loved the place!"

Christine Botha

"One of the rooms was only partly cleaned (bins not emptied and floor not swept) and other room had no place to wash dishes - except using the bathroom - a bit inconvenient!"


"Excellent View"

Karen esterhuyse

"Nice and quiet. Kitchen is well equipped. Would have like a double/queen size bed. "


"The view is stunning "

Hans Bodenstein

"The flat was clean neat and comfortable. The only improvement I would suggest is to have two comfortable chairs in the room. "


"Average Aacommodation compared to our needs"

Erika Van Rooyen

"The place is very neat, clean and the perfect size with comfortable beds, BUT the duvets need to be replaced. The filling is not evenly distributed anymore and it was horrible to sleep under.

"The place is very neat, clean and the perfect size with comfortable beds, BUT the duvets need to be replaced. The filling is not evenly distributed anymore and it was horrible to sleep under. I took my duvet out of the cover and slept under the duvet cover and blankets. A microwave oven and cooldrink glasses would have been wonderful. Only wine glasses in our cottage. Only one braai to be shared between the three cottages and the owner is not a great idea and was frustrating. "


"comfortable stay"

Olga Speakes

"A nice stay, comfortable family room that worked well for us on a short stay (one night). The room was very clean and all the facilities were in good order. A good option for a short stay in Luderitz and good value for money."


"Friendly reception, view and excellent accommodation"

Lourens Van Wyk

"See title above for our experience. The only recommendation we will make is to have 2 lounge chairs and not only 2 bar stools. A small table would also be useful.

"See title above for our experience. The only recommendation we will make is to have 2 lounge chairs and not only 2 bar stools. A small table would also be useful.
As far as SafariNow is concerned: You should look at your information bout payment. After receiving your conformation of booking you indicated that the balance should be paid at the guest house and then you still send out a note to pay the balance to you - this causes some confusion"

"A very pleasant stay for 3 nights in what must be one of the nicest locations in Luderitz. Retha was away on leave but we were well looked after by husband Pierre. Male member of staff should be told it costs nothing to be pleasant and smile once in awhile. Room was pleasant and adequate for 3."

"From the moment we arrived, we felt at home. Although we did not meet the hosts, we received a heart warming welcome letter from them. Loads of information / maps were left for us to guide in planning our days in Luderitz. The decor and attention to detail was exceptional! A beautiful Bible verse on a black board blessed us greatly as we entered. As we looked around, we took note of all the heart shaped decor items in the room, and we could not help but feel the love that went into the room, and the effort the hosts made to make every guest feel special and comfortable. Quality bedding and towels. Beautiful crockery. The views were incredible; ocean....lighthouse....houses and church on the hill, all visible from Island Cottage

Thank you Island Cottage!

I would definitely recommend this lovely place!"

Absolutely stunning place and the Mexican feel of the cottage brings out even more. Nice soft beds after a long drive and a beautiful view of the sea to boot.

The owners made us feel welcome and the presentation on the bed was special. Loved the Wi-Fi facility and what to do information. Will come stay here again."
