What fantastic views. This alone is a reason to choose Whale View. right on the beach and in a quiet location away from the main town. Staff were very welcoming. Only downside is that you have to drive to get to any restaurants etc. more

We were a party of six ( 3 couples) and stayed 1 night at the Whale View Guest House whilst driving the Garden Route. Nico (the owner) welcomed us into the most beautiful relaxing room, opening onto a spectacular veranda overlooking the ocean. He poured us a most welcoming glass of wine and told us to help ourselves to cold... more

This is the first time I turn from eager analyser of reviews to active writer of one. No other place before made such an impression as to urge me into writing anything. We received some bad news from the homeland during our stay, but even that could not take away the magic of Whale View. Obviously, as stated in previous... more
