My recent stay at this coastal gem was an experience I'll cherish forever. What sets this property apart is the fact that every single room offers direct waterfront access, making it an unforgettable retreat. Upon arrival, I was immediately captivated by the brilliant design of this location. Every room had been thoughtfully crafted to maximize its proximity to the water. Each room was elegantly furnished, with a focus on immersing guests in the coastal ambiance. The large windows and private terrace provided unobstructed vistas of the waterfront. The gentle lapping of the water against the shore and the picturesque views were constant companions during my stay. The convenience of having direct waterfront access from every room cannot be overstated. Whether for a leisurely morning by the water, a peaceful evening stroll, or simply to savor the coastal breeze, it was all just steps from your doorstep. The staff at this coastal retreat were attentive and ensured that every guest had a seamless experience. Whether it was arranging activities, providing helpful local tips, or simply making you feel at home, their commitment to guest satisfaction was truly commendable. Now, let's talk about breakfast – it was a highlight of my stay. The morning spread was nothing short of stunning. Fresh and delectable dishes were served with a view that's beyond words. In summary, this coastal gem, where every room offers direct waterfront access and serves stunning breakfasts, is a haven for those seeking a serene retreat by the water. It's an ideal destination for relaxation and immersion in the beauty of the waterfront setting. I wholeheartedly recommend this exceptional property to anyone looking for a tranquil getaway. Thank you to the entire team for creating such an extraordinary experience. I eagerly anticipate my return to this waterfront paradise.

During our trip on the Garden Route, we wanted to go sharkdiving, so we intended to pass by Hermanus. However, upon finding Benguela on Booking, we decided to pass by Gansbaai instead. What a great choice that was! We could book a sharkdiving experience via a recommendation of the hotel and had a wonderful stay too: (i) our room had a pool view and was spacious, (ii) the property lies in a very quiet neighbourhood, so although the pool lies next to a road, there is no noise as there is no traffic, (iii) the owner Jonathan is an excellent host that manages to find a good balance between his guests’ privacy and the social angle and (iv) the dinner he cooked for us and the rest of the guests was excellent - it was also a nice experience to meet some of the other guests and hear about their backgrounds and travels. We would definitely recommend!

This accommodation was a little slice of heaven. On the waterfront with a beautiful view of the bay. Our room was great, spacious, clean and felt homely. Desi was amazing & the breakfast she provided was amazing. There was wood supplied for the fire place on the balcony where we cooked there one night. We loved it so much we ended up booking an extra night. 12/10 recommend staying here. The views from the room were enough to just hang out there all day if you wanted too.

Saxon Lodge was one of the best places to stay during our three week vacation in South Africa. The owners in particular were always very friendly and genuinely interested in us. We felt at home right from the start. All our questions were answered at all times. We were given an upgrade due to minor building work on our room. The location of the accommodation is perfect and the view of the harbor is magnificent. Thank you! We would stay here again at any time.

I Loved that the house felt so welcoming, like staying in a favourite relative's holiday home. All the amenities that were available in the house, especially the Braai facilities and the back up for loadshedding. We all had very good sleep on the most comfy beds I've ever had in a holiday accommodation. Also the communication with Angelique and Lizette.
