Stone cottage

This was my second stay at Whale of a Time, but my first stay in the Stone Cottage. It was magical - like a quaint little fairy castle. I loved the stone-work, the winding staircase, the old-style bath tubs and interesting decor. The well-equipped kitchen and the bar-style seating was perfect for us and we also spent many hours sitting around the pool, with magnificent views. It was a most enjoyable stay in a one-of-a-kind destination. I will definitely be back and will highly recommend it to others. Thanks and Well Done to the management and staff!

Perfect!

Wonderful ocean views and we were lucky enough to see whales really close by, from our balcony. Watched the sunrise, lying in bed. Apartment was even better than we had hoped for, spotless with brand new Everything. Friendly staff, comfortable bed, access to pool area and outdoor grill. Couldn't be happier. Will definitely recommend to all, and hope to return soon. Thank you for an amazing stay!

Toller Blick vom Zimmer aufs Meer

Das Zimmer war genau wie auf den Fotos..man hat einen super Ausblick aufs Meer. Das Zimmer war sehr sauber und gemütlich. Sehr netter und hilfsbereiter Gastgeber..Guter Ausgangspunkt um die Gegend um das Kap der guten Hoffnung zu erkunden.

Nette Ferienwohnung mit tollem Meerblick

Die Wohnung ist sehr grosszuegig geschnitten und es ist alles vorhanden, was man so brauchen koennte. Der Hammer ist der Balkon zum Meer von dem aus man stundenlang den Delfinen zusehen kann. Super!

Fabuleux!

Superbe séjour, la vue de l'appartement (Dolphin) est fabuleuse sur Fish Hoek, False bay et les baleines si elles décident de passer par là ce qui a été notre cas! La literie est confortable, la salle de bain avec 1 douche + 1 baignoire et le coin cuisine bien équipé. Seul petit bémol il n'y a pas de chauffage et pour les jours sans soleil en septembre c'était un petit peu juste. Excellence séjour malgré ça, nous y retournerons avec grand plaisir, superbe.
