Amazing houseboat experience on the Sundays River

We loved the experience and location of being on this houseboat. Unbeatable view. Super service by Captain Adam who took us boating and dune exploring. What an unforgettable experience.

No flushing toilet on board and the inside cabin space is just too small. However the outside deck space made up for it.

Romantic moments @ Maggie's

Loved everything about the place. It's home away from home. The convenience is just on another level. I literally needed nothing more than such peace. We had a great weekend and even extended for an extra day.... (It's that addictive). Was windy and rainy that weekend and will definitely come for a Spring weekend. I bet it's dope. 💐🙏❤️

Wish they could have collected the toilet tank on time.

Unique experience that I will definately be coming back to!

I was pleasantly surprised by the boat house - such a unique experience! It was like being outdoors but with all the comforts and more. The sunset while braaing and sunrise with coffee in the morning from the tent upstairs was spectacular!

The toilet didn't always work well.

Maggie May is equivalent to a 1-2 star hotel & suitable for a couple or a family looking for a different experience.

the river

the untidiness of the grounds & storage of the junk… = disrespectful to visitors the boathouse needed maintenance the gas canisters were not checked & we ran out of gas on the first morning the top step to the upper level is missing & as such is dangerous

Bad

Nothing we did not spent the night

The stairs to the boat was such that my wife with a back problem was unable to get to the boat. The jetty was also very unstable. The general maintenance was not up to scratch. Need attention.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on the house boat. A real novelty. Would highly recommend going on the boat trip to go sand boarding on the sand dunes lower down the river.

Nightmare from when we arrived

We were in complete darkness.It wasn't load shedding there was simply no electricity

Nightmare of hell .There was a permanent disgusting smell coming from the bathroom .Nobody assisted with checking in .Only a bunch of instructions on a piece of paper . This is definitely not on especially that it is a house boat . The boat is beached in mud and cannot move . Major problems with its toilet and electrical system as nothing worked .Not load shedding but normal time . Maintanance manager took an hour to come out and could not help us . Gave us a torch at 9:30 PM .Sat in complete darkness from 6 pm .The owner was not interested in assisting us . Very dissatisfied

Have stayed here before, so came back as it is such a novelty :) Relaxing and tranquil. No one else around, just you on the water and the odd passer by on their boat.

That the boat grounds at low tide so the entire thing is tilted and at this point. Staff kindly explained that after a storm damaged the jetty, the orientation of the boat was changed (parallel to the riverbank, when previously it was perpendicular), thus it now grounds like this at low tide.

Very good

The toilet was a little bit off putting. The nozzle to close the bottom of the loo to the actual tank didn’t work. Every time you walked into the bathroom you were able to see everything in there.. You should be able to close the valve to not see directly into the septic tank.
