    The location, facilities and amenities are great! Alan is very responsive to messages and quick to assist. You cannot go wrong with booking here. For families with children and teenagers the split bedrooms upstairs and downstairs is ideal. The kitchen is very well equipped and the available games came in handy when the weather turned. Thank you for the extra blankets to lounge around with in winter.

    The views from the apartment were breathtaking, the beach wonderful for walks and a swim. The local restaurant is within walking distance and the locals extremely friendly. We felt at home. The hosts were attentative and caring. A wonderful spot for the whole family or couples.

    There's a lot of stairs leading to the actual apartment which is not the end of the world but a minor inconvenience if you have a lot you are carrying with you.

    Excellent facilities. It's home away from home. All the amenities you could need. The place was clean and very secure.

    The bad weather😩 it rained throughout our stay A few sachets of sugar and tea would make a good add to the booking

    Alan and Viv are the best.. from the reservation to check-out they keep in touch.. made everything easy.. instructions and everything made easy... the place has the nicest view.. the kitchen had every utensil you'd need... Provided safeguarding gate for the little one since there's a steep staircase.. very clean and comfortable.. WiFi is very good but not much on the room with twin beds... Comfortable.. attention to detail.. chocolate in every room.. outdoor furniture...

    The South Coast has water shortages but South Sands has 7 water tanks!!! The community of Glenmore needs to address the water issue with the municipality as people and businesses are suffering without any water for awhile. Alan is a champ because he's always in contact with the councilors. Thank you Alan for being so accommodating, helpful and thoughtful 🙏

    Clean, tranquil and beautiful 😍 the property was so comfortable and spacious. Alan and Viv put alot of love into this gem which is well equipped (even has a first aid kit). There's alot of stairs.... to trek luggage is a workout but once you're inside the property you'll forget about everything. Plenty of warm bedding, kitchen has everything (just needs an airfryer 😃) deck was my favorite place to just chill and do lots of whale spotting 🐋 Can't wait to come back again ♥️

    Enjoyed every moment there!

    For a very refreshing change to the norm, the place advertised looks much better in presence than the photos on the website! On the Beach @ South Sands. No.2 is an absolute gem of a place to stay and absolutely worth every cent! Proximity to the beach is fantastic! The thoughtfulness of Alan and Viv is exemplary and market-leading. South Sands No.2 has been thoroughly equipped with all catering requirements for everyday usage. It is definitely a 'home' away from home! @ South Sands No.2 is an absolute gem on the South Coast!

    A peaceful stay and pristine beach

    We had a lovely family holiday at On the Beach over Easter. Alan was very communicative throughout and shared detailed instructions for everything to make our stay as comfortable and safe as possible. The unit itself is very well equipped for a self-catered stay and has rechargeable lightbulbs and portable lamps for load shedding. The complex has its own private path down to the beach – it’s only a minute’s walk away. The area felt safe for runs and walks and the beach is pristine. There are many other tourist attractions in close proximity, including the Munster Classic Car Museum and the Red Desert. One thing to note – there’s a fair distance between the parking and the unit with many steps. This may be an issue for people with mobility issues. I highly recommend Alan’s place – we had a 5-star stay!
