Verified reviewexcellent

Comfortable accommodation with a superb view across the bay from Gansbaai to the Hermanus/Onrus area. The flat is very nicely furnished, has very comfortable beds, a well equipped kitchen, electrical back-up during Eskom load-shedding and excellent internet service. Be aware before booking, however, that access is via outside stairs with no handrail from the parking area to the flat on the lowest level of the building, which anyone with physical limitations might find challenging.
