The best stay ever!! We felt home from the minute we arrived. The rooms are very comfortable, the house is a treasure and Jonathan is the best host, going out of his way to make your stay unforgettable. Make sure you enjoy a dinner prepared by Jonathan. You won't regret this! Oh, I didn't mention you can actually see the whales from the house, even though you are not right on the water.

Cosy, clean and well equipped house (kitchen), with secure parking and ocean view (definitely the top of this accommodation). We had no contact with the host but check-in was quick and hassle-free. Definitely recommended.

We had the king suite, which is enourmous and has the best view on the bay with a lot of windows. The pictures don't do it justice. We also had Christmas dinner with amazing food and a good breakfast. The small indoor poor is also nice to just relax after arriving in the evening before dinner, especially in warm days. The place seems to be a personal home but also used for a hotel. So you have the extras people would only get for their own home like a nice bath, more cosy and comfortable rooms and just better quality.

We had an international wine and food society event over the weekend so visited all the wineries in the area as well as Stanford. Gansbaai was in the middle, so to speak, so very convenient for trips.

Gansbaai was a comfortable city with spectacular views where our family explored the southern coast of South Africa. We discovered hidden beaches, spotted many beautiful Protea flowers, sunbathed on Pearly Beach, went to the fish market in the harbor at Gansbaai, lunched on butter chicken and fish and chips at the Blue Goose, restaurant on Hoop St, hiked Klipgat Caves at the Walker Bay Nature Reserve, glimpsed a pod of orcas, and a mother Southern Right whale and her calf, spotted three of the Marine Big 5, dined at the White House, saw Danger Point lighthouse along a four wheel drive track along the beach, found crazy amounts of beautiful shells on the beach. It was an epic adventure.

The location. It’s all about the location. Gansbaai itself is a nice little town; very peaceful and doesn’t feel too “touristy”. The view from the large balcony is amazing. Garage to park your car. Comfortable bedrooms. Lots of shared space. Indoor and outdoor brais.
