Seeing the whales from the lovely terrace while in the whirlpool sipping a glass of wine was just pure magic! The house is amazing and offers everything your heart desires. Check in and out were super easy and accommodating. Incredibly friendly hosts.

“A week of total relaxation with plenty of whales to keep us company.”
The location is the best feature. Close second is the hot tub on the balcony. We loved every bit of time we spent at the house. We would've loved to have it for the weekend too. The self catering equipment is of high quality. The enterinment room in the basement is awesome if you are in a bigger company. The whales are playing along so nicely as long as one keeps looking at the ocean.

“Stunning sea views”
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.

“One of the best in the Western Cape Region without a doubt.”
Absolutely stunning sea view as far as the eye can sea. One of the best, neatest, true to the information supplied, wonderfully decorated accommodations we have stayed in during all the years of travelling within the Western Cape Region. This is a must for any person/s that wish to experience comfort, away from the city and simply relax. The hosts were absolutely wonderful with the check in process as well as the check out process along with providing assistance whenever we required advice on one or other service. We can truly recommend this facility to anyone to include international tourists and local holiday makers. We truly appreciated and enjoyed our stay at Casa Balena! We will most certainly want to be back as soon as possible.
