Very disappointing. We had booked and paid for a 2 night stay, but on arrival we found the bedding to be very suspicious. It looked like someone had already slept in it, it was creased, faded and also had burn holes in it. My husband and I couldn’t face sleeping on the bed and had to book into another place for our 2 night stay without any refund. Also note that there is only cold water in the kitchen.

Beach is walking distance.
There were no towels on our bed or the usual coffee/tea sachets. At R1000 a night, I would have expected a bit more.
There was no clear indication of how dinner at the restaurant worked.

Awesome views, friendly and efficient staff. The accommodation was functional and rustic.
Rustic accommodation with a modicum of comfort is great. However, some issues with the rooms affected overall positive adjudication of the experience.
Gas for the stove was not turned on when we arrived and the burners were initially not working. This was resolved after a phone call and then calling at reception.
I would advise that a staff member introduces guests to the facilities/rooms to show us around when we arrived. This would have been helpful to resolve issues when guests settle in.
The kitchen tap was leaky. There is a leak on the roof in the passage.
The gas-heated showers alternatively run hot and cold even for the briefest showers making this an uncomfortable experience.

No WiFi during our whole stay except at the reception.

Buccaneers is a relaxed place to stay in a stunning location. The facilities are set in beautiful bush and many have amazing views of the sea. There are a variety of options in accommodation. There is a small onsite bar open in the evenings. Breakfast and dinner can be provided, there is a pool with a small cafe and a volley ball court.
The accommodation is simple with nothing fancy, but functional.

The welcoming by staff, car had difficulty driving over speed humps. Staff gave us a ride to the facility. Staff gave a warm welcoming.
The one room had smelly bedding and towels. The speed humps upon entering the facility are too high and there are too many, extremely inconveniant if you're not driving a 4X4 vehicle or SUV.

We thoroughly enjoyed the use of the canoe and walking the beaches, and the dunes! The swimming pool was clean and lovely too. LoVed been adopted by Peaches the kitty cat.
The paving outside our chalet and pool area looking a little sad. Finding a few dirty items in the chalet. Some detail or quality control in the cleaning department is required.
