Comfy, basic room and super-friendly owner
This is a lovely place to stay if all you need is a clean, comfy and safe no-frills room. It takes a minute to get used to the en-suite bathroom (at least the one in my room) because it's not got a thick wall around it but something like frosted glass. But overall I liked this place: good location, super-friendly owner who is very willing to help you and will make you laugh, and a simple and delicious breakfast of omelette, toast and tea or coffee. I enjoyed staying here and would stay here again.

Amazing host!
From the second we stepped foot through the door, we were made to feel very welcome! The host was knowledgeable with lots of help and advice for around the area. We stayed one night to go on the whale watching tour early the next morning as part of our honeymoon and he did everything he could to make sure it was perfect for us. Well located near the main restaurants and close to the harbour for whales. Thank you for our stay x

Cutest place!
We had a wonderful time in Gansbaai! The accommodation is safe, clean, nicely decorated and has everything you need for a couple of nights- including towels, hairdryer, tee, coffee and so on! And the owner is the loveliest person on earth- he is a Lokal and can tell all the good spots!

Lovely place!!
What a lovely place. We was meant to stay for 2 nights but due to weather and a trip being cancelled, without any worry the host got us in for another night. And what a man he is! The most lovely, kindest, hard working host I have ever met. He made you feel very welcome, any troubles he was there. He would recommend many things to you, especially where to eat, and take my word for it, there amazing.

Would recommend it for sure!

The old Lady" is charming
This very quaint, newly renovated old fashioned establishment with clean simple modern style is lovingly referred to as "the old lady" by its owner Aaron. Aaron's grandmother owned the lodge and he is continuing the family tradition in a most welcoming fashion. The view from the broad enclosed veranda is stunning. I took a 9 km
hike to De Kelders and back and was rewarded with excellent whale sighting.

Excellent place. The bedrooms are very clean. Aaron is the owner and he is very gent, helpfull, kind and explaing everithing for us! The breakfast was awesome! Have a nice view of the sea from the balcony and is very well located.

Location is everything. This place is perfectly located overlooking the sea. The owner was very much welcoming and explained everthing beforehand.

Neat, clean room was presented to us after a brief tour of the place. Surrounding places of interest we might want to visit explained in the simplest manner. A quite and relaxed weekend is what we were looking for and that is what we got.

I would definately visit again because of that breakfast :-)

Amazing staff, and everything clean and new!
Really nice place! Everything was very clean and new. We booked in the same day of our arrival, about just 1 hour before, and it was very easy. The staff is really gentle, kind and helpful. We (me and my family) had a great time in our stay. Cheers!
