Exceptional house

This property was perfect in every sense. The proximity, or lack of any distance, to the beach was just incredible. The rooms were all spacious, well equipped, and everything was just amazing.

Absolutely stunning villa in a perfect location

We all absolutely adored Fin Whale and it was everything we needed to recharge after a few nights roughing it, in the Kruger National Park. The hosts were accommodating and checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed. We can’t wait to go back!

Relaxed, informal yet luxurious.

This property is amazing. The location on the beach is as described. We knew the area and that the location may be a little isolated from the city centre but it did not detract. Show me now. It’s an easy car journey to Nordhoek and Chapman’s Peak provides access to Cape Town and provides an unrivalled view. We are long admirers of Cape Point Vineyards on a Thursday evening. This is an exceptional property with everything one needs to relax. Walking along the boardwalk with a G&T to the beach watching a 10 year old boy fish with his net in rock pools at sunset was idyllic. We will most certainly return!

We had a great stay, will be back and would highly recommend

Location is very special, a haven of peace and tranquility, even (and perhaps especially) when the weather is bad!

It was lovely, but expensive and lacking in some areas based on the price.

The location was beautiful and the home is nicely but decorated. We felt some additional things were needed in the house - tupperware containers in the kitchen, a box of tissues in the bathroom and some two-prong plugs - there were none available in the main bedroom and only one in the main bathroom.
