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.

What a great place! Spacious room, very nicely decorated and with everything you need. An enjoyable addition was a pretty set of candles which could be used at the balcony to create romantic atmosphere. Everything very clean, spotless sheets and towels. We felt completely spoiled. Breakfast was not only delicious but also looked like a piece of art. We had to leave early to the airport the second time so we got the best breakfast package we have ever had. A big thank you to the lovely, dedicated hosts. Our stay at 65oncliff was like cherry on a cake for our stay in South Africa. We hope to come back during the whale season!

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.

This a relatively small hotel but beautifully appointed. The property is in a very good location, in a gated development and a beautiful setting overlooking the sea. The bedroom was very comfortable. The restaurant provided an excellent range of wonderfully cooked food, so we ate in both nights. The staff were exceptional. I can’t remember ever meeting (in a hotel) such a friendly and happy group.

Perfectly located in De Kelders, Villiera gave us great recommendations for restaurants and activities, and breakfast was delicious and plentiful.
