39 guests' feedbackThe stay was wonderful. We had the most beautiful view of the sea and saw whales. The breakfast was top notch and everything was spotless.
Enjoyed and did see whales from our room for the 2 days we stayed.
See stars.
We had a great stay and were kindly received. Everyone was very helpful together and made us feel like one big family.
Neat and clean guest house. Joy and Louis are excellent hosts ─ friendly and helpful. Will definitely stay there again.
Uncle Louis and Aunt Joy are the dearest and most wonderful people, we immediately felt at home. Uncle Louis makes the most delicious breakfast! We felt so pampered with cookies and rusks and chocolates in our room. They came to call us to watch the whales from the deck! We received much better service from the uncle and aunt than we have received from 5-star guest houses or a lodge, the apartment and room are much more equipped and comfortable than the 5-star guest house where we stayed in Wilderness. We will definitely go again.
Nice sea view to experience changed weather to Mossel Bay. Guest was very friendly especially when doing laundry when it rained like that. This self catering is just too small to fit everything in and braai facilities are chaotic, really need to be upgraded.
The breakfast was lovely.
Well located, beautiful view, most delicious breakfast.
Although unusual, I like to book self-catering accommodation if I need to travel for work. The "Lavender" unit is ideal. Well equipped for a quick meal with crockery, cutlery, microwave, two-plate stove and small oven, kettle, etc.) A table for work (and eating) and a sea view with beautiful garden where birds nest. Exactly the change in environment needed to stimulate creative and productive work.
Very nice place. Will go again.
Stayed one night at WhalePhin. Beautiful location. The location is wonderful with an unforgettable view of fynbos and sea. The breakfast was top notch.
Friendly people, good location, clean and neat.
Louis and Joy is a super friendly couple with their adorable dachshund and cat. Everything was so neat and the view from the room, living room and balcony is breathtaking. We slept with the sliding door open at night, but closed it later due to the "noise" of the waves! LOL! Beautiful birdlife around the house. Breakfast the next morning was 5 star+! We will definitely go stay there again and definitely for more than one night next time.
The hosts were amazing, such lovely people! The breakfast was perfect and the view from your room was amazing.
I would recommend Whale Phin to anyone. It's very neat, the breakfast is delicious and the view beautiful. Joy and Louis are very friendly and accommodating.
We loved our stay, great attention to detail - rusks, biscuits and bedside chocolates too!! Immaculately clean with a great view - excellent value for money.
Beautiful view, friendly and professional service. Room a bit small for especially travelers with a lot of luggage. Everything is neat and clean and certainly the best breakfast out there.
Very nice view. Friendly service.
Breakfast was fantastic and we felt very much at home. The view was incredible.
Location - Perfect, View - Perfect, Convenience - Perfect, Breakfast - Perfect, Cleanliness - Perfect, Value for Money - Excellent. The best host and hostess ever - thank you Louis and Joy, see you soon.
Joy's hospitality and kindness was amazing, thank you very much! It is a lovely place with an incredibly beautiful view of the entire bay. Thank you very much for a pleasant, homely stay!
Louis and Joey provide excellent service and their place is beautiful. I would love to stay there again.
The accommodation is comfortable, quiet with everything you need. The place is perfect to switch off from the day's work. It's wonderfully quiet, but completely close enough to George and Mossel Bay to be able to work there, but spend the night away from the noise. With the option to cook for yourself or eat at a restaurant, I find the place to stay ideal. This time I went to eat in Hartenbos one night (lovely restaurants close by) and had a takeaway in the room the other night. Breakfast was delicious! The "road food breakfast" when I had to leave early was top notch! Thank you very, very much.
Pretty view. Neat and clean. Good breakfast. Pleasant hosts. Parking the only problem.
We were received very hospitably and treated all the time. It's very peaceful and you can relax 100%. Breakfast is delicious! A lot of effort is made. I recommend any couple or single person to spend the night there. We were there for 3 nights and would definitely go again.
The noises of people moving around the house are something to get used to, but it's minor, and overall we had a nice time!
See the stars.
Very friendly and helpful people. It is clean and tidy. There is a nice view of the sea and the birds that frolic in the garden and come to eat at the bird bowls. The breakfast is tasty and nicely served. It was very nice to experience the farmer hospitality there.
Very nice stay there. Great people Louis and Joy. Any time again.
Room is a bit small, but other than that there is no complaint.
Beautiful view and neat rooms with good location.
We stayed in the Lavender room and it was nice and big and had a microwave, fridge and kettle which is great for us as we were travelling with our infant. The views are absolutely stunning and Joy is a wonderful lady! My only criticism is that there are rooms above this room as well as next to it and you can hear all the movement upstairs as well as people talking in the room next door.
We experienced a piece of heaven. Friendly, helpful host and hostess. Everything so clean and tidy. Will definitely come again.
I was very impressed with the homely atmosphere. Everything was really excellent.
The view was magnificent and we felt very spoiled.
Will definitely come again. The rooms are beautiful with a sea view, and the breakfast was delicious! The host couple knows about you and makes you feel welcome! Thank you Joy and Louis, we will definitely recommend people and come again!
See the stars below.
The place is nice but very narrow for 2 people + luggage(not enough space) and as the breakfast room is in front of your door, no one can sleep longer then 7. very nice view!! for people who like a familiar atmospehre
