A comfortable, clean, well equipped unit with everything that is needed. Even had an electric blanket for the crisp winter chilly evenings, plus a hair dryer. Owner and his wife friendly and we received a warm welcome. A lovely Town to stay over for a few days.

Kleinzee Oceanfront Guesthouse

Kleinzee Guesthouse is exclusive, peaceful and private. Located only 1 km from the Walker Bay Nature Reserve, guests have direct access to the cliff paths for seaside hikes. It is set on the pristine ocean front with spectacular views extending over Walker Bay and the Kleinrivier mountain ranges beyond. We are located in the best area for land based whale watching between August and November when Southern Right Whales come up close to the cliff edge. Breakfast is served daily on the balcony overlooking the ocean. We offer home made muesli, freshly baked muffins and croissants, a Kleinrivier cheese board and a full English breakfast. We can arrange boat trips, shark cage dives, horse riding on the beach and De Kelders drip cave tours for guests. We also have mountain bike rental on site.

Cosy accommodation with a great view!

Excellent service and wonderful hospitality - Thank you Kate and Team! Will book my next stay in Gansbaai at this Lodge. Suggestion- maybe look accessibility to top floors - maybe look at installing a lift perhaps?

Reviewed By vive71

Johannes is the friendliest and warmest host you could hope to find anywhere on your travels. He truly enjoys hosting people in his lovely home and it shows in the way he takes care of his guests. The home is situated about 5 minutes drive away from the shark cage diving harbour and not far from the coast where you can spend some time watching the whales. The rooms are well appointed and very clean. Shower and toilets were great with plenty of hot water. The breakfast muffin was the best I've ever tasted and Johannes has plenty of stories from his extensive travels around the world.
