We stayed in this peaceful and safely located cottage and had a wonderful experience. It is fully equipped, including everything you need to prepare your own meals. Although the hosts do not live on-site, their local contacts were easy to reach, extremely friendly, and provided excellent recommendations. Gansbaai is just a short drive away, with supermarkets and a good selection of restaurants. The cottage is also an excellent base for exploring the surrounding area. From the terrace, you can even spot dolphins and whales, making the location truly special.

Nice location for a stay on the sea side and for some whale watching

8.0

Great location on the seaside close to the whale watching areas. Very nice sunsets. Nice to have inside bbq.

During winter time it can get a bit chilly inside with no heating in the house.

Everything was perfect! Location is stunning! Communication with hosts was very good from before our arrival and also during our stay. The houses is big and very comfortable. The inside brai was so much fun! The place is kept very clean and there’s all you need to spend some days in the area. Highly recommended!

The view and the fact that the dogs could come with and they could run around.

The ants needs to be managed in the kitchen.

The property was perfect and accommodated all 7 of us comfortably. The sunset view was one of the best. The host checked in regularly with me and shared information about activities prior to arrival and while we were there. They were excellent hosts.
