A very nice guesthouse that makes you feel at home abroad. Located directly on the cliff with an amazing view of the ocean and the whales 🐋. Mrs. Wallce took real good care of all our needs and treated us like family, breakfasts where great, she organized our dinners and got us tables at the best restaurants in town , cared for our transportation, etc.
We had a great time ,even the rain didn't ruin our holiday.

Great place for the price! Karin is very sweet and accommodating. Towels and sheets are provided. There’s a mini fridge that was useful. Shower had hot water for 3 people. Parking was in the back of the house and felt pretty safe. Not many great restaurant options around. Quick drive to the main road. Overall a great experience.
The hospitality of the people was genuine.
The overall scenery of the town, beach, and ocean are beautiful.
The safety of the guesthouse and surroundings were comforting.
The host, Johannes, personality is like meeting a friend.
I will go back again.

Small, laid-back town with many activities in and around and some good restaurants. I also enjoyed visiting nearby towns like Hermanus & Stanford. Highlights were Shark Cage Diving, Klein River Cheese Farm and the Elgin Valley Wine Farms. Some nice hiking options in the area as well & De Kelders is great for whale watching and walks along the ocean.

Gansbaai still feels like a real fishing town although there is a big centre with Spar as the main tenant.
There is a lot to do if you are someone that needs to stay active: walking trails, horse riding, wine tasting, and bicycle routes. You can go shark diving or watch the seals at Dyer Island.
You can walk all the way from Kleinbaai to Franskraal or just relax on the beach.
You can play in the lagoon or swim in the sea. Never a dull moment.

There doesn’t seem like much to do this time of year unless you have reliable transportation. I guess it would be an ok home base but would still be a drive to anything. Beach access is almost impossible. If you want quiet with incredible views, this is your town. We did eat at a great restaurant but I think there are only a few places in town. It was tough to find a place for a pre dinner drink.

It’s a lovely villa just above the sea with great views! A little walkway leads directly down to the beach - perfect white sand and blue waters (cold ;))
Everybody at the Romans Villa is friendly and will help You with anything You ask. Food is delicious and the Bar is equipped very well (even 4 different Grappas)
Thank You everybody at the Romans Villa for lovely days in Gansbaai - we will be back!
The apartment was very good value, although basic had everything that was needed. Needed to keep a window open as condensation was a problem but the bed was comfortable, the shower was hot, walkable distance from the cliff path. Great cafes nearby especially Gansbaai Bakery. Great service food ,really quirky.Chantal and Francois were really helpful and offered loads of advice about local area.
This house feels like holiday! Everything is neat, clean and thoughtfully planned for your comfort. The kitchen is well-equipped. The glassed in braai patio lets you enjoy the view while relaxing and braaiing even in bad weather. There were ample heaters and warm blankets on our bed. The host was most welcoming, friendly and responsive.
Perfect location for visiting the Walker Bay Reserve just up the road. De Kelders is a beautiful area in Gansbaai. The house offers everything you need to take some time out to relax. Only wished we were staying longer to start reading the fantastic collection of books or start a project from the drawer filled with lovely balls of yarn.
If you are looking for a holiday destination that is peaceful and without the busy of other destinations then Gaansbaai is for u.
McLaren self catering is the place for u to stay with family, has everything u require to keep yourself fed and accommodated while on holiday.
Thank you Leigh
Everything. Probably the best small hotel/ rooms we've ever stayed in. Superb location overlooking the bay, Great hosts and staff. Great breakfasts. Superbly provisioned sea-facing rooms with everything you might want or need to make your stay perfect. Outstanding.
We loved the house - it is a peaceful haven, comfortable, well equipped, super stylish, nestled into indigenous vegetation. We loved the surrounds- we took long walks on the beach and on the estate trails
The tranquility of Gansbaai matched with the hospitality of the host were impeccable. The amazing pathway to the beach was incredible and then arriving at the beach was even better.
Very cute place to stay and enjoy Gansbaai. Gina & Ottl are very welcoming hosts. Very intimate to sit around they‘re dining room table for breakfast and enjoy the yummie bfast.
