Wonderful.

Great house with a great view. Was able to see many whales in the bay from the lounge. Comfortable living spaces and bedrooms.

Whale Huys aan te beveel.

Whale Huys het alle verwagtinge oortref, heerlike en gerieflike verblyf, swembadarea, braai, en die ligging met die uitsig oor die see, soos hul sê, to die for.

Whale Huys to recommend.

Whale Huys exceeded all expectations, delicious and comfortable accommodation, pool area, barbecue, and the location with the view over the sea, as they say, to die for.

Beautiful location.

The house is tastefully decorated with almost everything one could want for a self catering vacation. The owner follows up after booking with some great suggestions and leaves a cool book with a whole suggested itinerary. Covid has wreaked some havoc in some of the places which are now shattered so that was a shame, because the places the owner suggested that were open were really charming. The setting is ideal and the house has a telescope for sea gazing. We weren't lucky enough to spot whales but we loved the trail along the coast right below the house. Quiet neighbourhood. Not for parties. Great for families with older children. Not sure about little ones given the cliffs.

Whale Huys 's response

Hi Shelbie,
Thank you to you and your family for staying with us, and thank you for taking the time to write a review. I was glad to hear you were able to enjoy the views, the coastal trail and some of the places I suggested. That hiking trial is a real favourite for me.
I'm really sorry to hear that you didn't see any whales. There are so many factors that can affect this and particularly the weather and the presence of Orcas in the bay. Hopefully next time.
We look forward to welcoming you back in the future.

One great place to come back to and recommend it to family and friends.

Thank you very much for the perfect place. Whale Huys is super amazing and very welcoming. I must say that was one of the best birthday gifts I've ever had. I'd definitely recommend it to a loved one, to come and experience the beauty. Thank you very much again I'm very happy and can't stop talking about the place.
