    The room was brand new and tidy, with convenient amenities like an electric kettle, central heating, and an iron. the views of the ocean were superb. the hotel is peacefully located on the outskirts of Gansbaai, near the town center, and is even better than Hermanus for whale watching because the whales come closer to the rocks. Whale watching spots were just a short walk away from the lodge.

    I recently had the pleasure of staying at a charming hotel located in a picturesque coastal town. One of the standout features of this hotel is its incredible value for money. The affordable prices allowed me to enjoy a delightful getaway without breaking the bank.

    All was superb, I couldn't find a single thing to fault.

    I had a great stay at this hotel in De Kelders, which is a lovely little village just a short drive from Gansbaai. The location was perfect, as it was so close to the nearby beach. I loved being able to relax and unwind just in front of the ocean. The rooms were comfortable and clean, with stunning views and a lovely sunset. The beds were super comfy, and I especially enjoyed sitting on the balcony with a view of the Kelders. The breakfast was delicious and provided a great start to the day.

    All was perfect during my stay.

    We had the most amazing stay at a beautiful guesthouse in a seaside town. The location was perfect, with stunning views of the ocean right from our balcony. The rooms were outstanding, spacious and beautifully furnished. The hostess, Villeria, went above and beyond to make us feel at home and even helped us book excursions. The breakfast was delicious and the overall feeling of being welcomed and cared for made this the best stay we've had in a long time. highly recommended!
