“Perfect location to relax with a group of friends and enjoy the coastal living of Gansbaai”
The house is perfectly located close to the beach with amazing views. The house is spacious and well kitted out for enjoying some sport on the TV, having a braai or relaxing on the verandah or in the heated plunge pool. There are amazing beach walks that start just across the road that are well worth the effort. There is a small bay close by for those that are happy to brave the cold sea water.

“Amazing Views, clean rooms, beautiful location.”
Amazing Views, some of the rooms are spacious and have the best ocean views. Some of the rooms however are a bit hit and miss. Easy Access to Ocean. Great Kitchen facilitites, warm pool, and we found as a group of friends it was a good space to connect, and hang out.

“As always, a wonderful stay”
We have been visiting Whale Waters for over 10 years. The house continues to be outstanding and lacking very little. High quality in all areas regarding furnishings, equipment and utensils. A beautiful site with 180 degree view of the ocean. Hosts are friendly and welcoming.

“Excellent location to travel from to towns before and after location. Beautiful views.”
Outside lights by the pool area were not working and we not able to open or close the main side folding doors to the pool area. They seemed like they were seized up.
