76 guests' feedbackWe had a wonderful rest. One cannot get enough of the view over the sea.
It was excellent! Rest and food for the soul.
Very beautiful, the style path is a little way down, but it's very beautiful.
We will definitely be back.
Had a very nice and peaceful time there. Most beautiful view of the sea and fynbos nature. If you really want to rest, forget about television and your cell phone, this is the place to be. I will definitely go back again.
Very quiet and peaceful. Between nature with a very nice view of the ocean.
The units were very spacious and tidy, and the surroundings very quiet. The dirt road had been very drivable. Only the Wi-fi was very weak.
It was very pleasant, we will definitely visit again.
The view from the chalet is the best and every room has a view of the sea. Als was clean and tidy. We had a very peaceful visit just what we needed.
We really enjoyed our time at Blue Whale Resort. It was very peaceful and nice. We had a nice sea view. Very neat and clean. Will definitely go again.
What a privilege to be so close to the sea. It's just you, nature and the sea.
What a beautiful safe haven just what we needed for our few days in George. Carla made our stay pleasant and was really flexible with our needs. We're definitely going back.
Come see for yourself, you won't be disappointed.
We rested very well. The view was fantastic and the hiking trail a nice challenge! We were close enough to shops and far enough from people! Thank you very much for the friendly reception. It made us feel right at home.
Will recommend this to anyone that needs a peaceful and relaxing holiday.
Very nice and quiet. Feel like you are on a farm and the view is breathtaking. Will never be able to get used to it.
Enjoy every moment, peaceful, beautiful.
Couldn't do any work. There is no signal and the internet is very weak.
The tiles in the units are exceptionally slippery when wet. During a few rainy days the steps at the entrance and those leading to the stoep became wet and we had two slips-and-falls. Safety warnings and non-slip strips should be installed.
Best ever. Definitely going back.
The houses overlooking the sea are absolutely wonderful. You sit on the porch and stare out over the sea and see how the waves break against the cliffs of the Garden Route. Peaceful, quiet and peaceful. Most activities are also within an hour or so's drive.
A beautiful place! Very nice, will definitely want to come and relax there again.
Perfect getaway. Surrounded by nature. Dead silent except for the roar of the sea. Will definitely book again. Next time we bring fishing rods.
The location is in a private natural area. At the end of the land against the ocean. Also close enough to city in case of emergency.
The good placement of the chalets and their ground plan was the biggest plus point. Friendly reception.
Fantastiese verblyf!
Reception was great, great view and very peaceful atmosphere.
Incredible views. Dolphins seen. Comfortable, spacious unit. Unforgettable stay.
We were received by owner and staff were friendly the took care of every need and assisted speedily to any queries. The house have everything you need and is spacious.
The chalet was exceptionally large and comfortable. The braai area is a great asset because it is under roof with full sea view. The steps leading to the rocks are well maintained. This place is beautiful!
Beautiful! The sea, the mountains, a lovely fire made on the balcony and just relaxing. The power was off from 18:00 until just before 11 and again from 02:00 to 04:00 due to loadshedding, but the fire made up for it. The lady who received us was helpful, friendly and informed and discussed the loadshedding schedule with us, which gave us a chance to plan for it.
Will definitely enjoy your hospitality again. Truly a place to find tranquillity for your soul and the views of the bay are delightful, whales and dolphins play in front of you. Units are top-notch and nicely appointed.
Very nice stay, clean and tidy! Breathtaking view! Home away from home. Will definitely stay there again. Do yourself a favor and book a weekend at Blue Whale Resort.
With such views and comfortable accommodation, few places can compete. The accommodation is neat and has a braai area with a wonderful sea view.
Beautiful views and peaceful surroundings. Very private and by no means aware of other guests. Neat and large chalets with everything you need for self-catering.
Very neat unit. The sea view from the units are amazing. Was a bit remote for teenagers that want to take part in young activities.
It is a stunning place to stay. But not child friendly/safe the beach is hard to get to with no clear indication to where the steps are to follow. Find the steps very steep and at some places broken and a safety risk to go down with. Housekeeping was excellent it's a nice stay over place but not more than 2 days.
Thank you so much for a fabulous holiday, home from home! Beautiful venue, all our needs were met. Just a kind note to the elderly- be aware there are stairs inside the unit to the bathroom and dangerous slippery floors on the veranda braai area.
Wonderful location. Chalets are neat and well equipped. Walking distance from the beach. Nice view of the ocean.
Beauitful place with a nice view. Would've liked to stay longer. The braai dish was dirty, but the rest of the unit was spotless and we had a wonderful stay.
Nice hiking trail. Accommodation was comfortable.
The place has a wonderful view and the houses are very comfortable and tidy. However, don't go there if you want to do more than just relax. The sea is very steep, steps away!
Very nice and peaceful place with a fantastic view. Not really a place for children because there is not really a swimming place for them. Well, many steps down to the sea, but mostly just rocks. Saw beautiful dolphins.
The units are very comfortably furnished. However, the cleaners do not get around to cleaning properly every day, washing dishes and bringing toilet paper. There is a stretch of dirt road that leads to the complex, so people who are not used to driving on dirt roads are advised to drive very slowly and carefully.
We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful house with its unbeatable view. We regret it was only for 1 night, but will definitely go again.
Staff friendly. Chalet neat, comfortable and spacious. No words can describe the beauty of the area, with breathtaking views of the ocean.
Este was accommodating about our circumstances and made our stay with them so enjoyable. The unit is serviced daily. The surroundings were beautiful and peaceful and gave us time to catch our breath. We had a bit of trouble with cell phone and internet reception but maybe it was the location of the unit. However, this did not detract from our experience.
Beautiful location with a gorgeous sea view. The facility is very clean and neat and is well managed and maintained. Will definitely visit again!
We enjoyed the silence and scenery. The accommodation was comfortable and the service good.
Really enjoyed the sea view and beautiful sunsets. Was able to switch off quietly and even saw a kid grazing just in front of our little house. If you are fit the walk down to the rocks is pleasant but only got a chance to do it once (about 200 steps). Quiet place to switch off at.
Our stay was very nice. We only stayed one night, but everything was spotlessly clean, even the floors didn't make you dirty. The beds were freshly made and very very neatly done. The DStv worked perfectly. Everything you could need for a guest house was provided and the rooms are nice and spacious. The self-catering section was pleasantly large and the stoep and braai facilities wonderful. We didn't see the walk down section to the beach so I'm not sure about that. We also didn't meet the admin ladies, we got there too late, but all the instructions were given to us perfectly and we had no problems going in and out with the electric gate, and everything worked perfectly . Their maintenance and upkeep is very very good, and I would recommend the place to any family that wants to relax. It was also quiet in the area and clean. Thank you for your nice place, we will use you again when we can!
Relatively well-priced, and safe to stay. Accommodation is clean and neat. Only down-side is accessibility to a beach, although a very nice view. Gravel road to the lodge can be a pain when it rains. DSTV channels listed were not all available for viewing.
The view is breathtaking, but the accommodation is disappointing. The mattresses of the beds are of very poor quality. We stayed 4 nights and not once did they come to clean or change towels. Two weekends before I also stayed in a self-catering unit in the town. Much cleaner, neater and more modern and much cheaper. In my opinion, you do not get value for your money at all at Blue Whale Resort. Never again.
Had a wonderful stay. Everything needed is there. I was also able to bake bread rolls in the oven and the view was fantastic. The catwalk down to the beach plus point. Fynbos with many birds can also be seen. I will definitely stay there again. Owner also came to say hello and ask if everything is okay.
Enjoyed the stay, thank you.
Wow, loved it! Just must be a little more disabled friendly as I have a disabled child. Love the views and will see us more in the future.
Everything was very neat and clean and everything you need is there. It has a breathtaking view of the sea and dolphins. It was absolutely fantastic.
Breathtaking scenery. Nice private and quiet.
Love the whole of the Southern Cape.
Beautiful scenery and location. If you like peace and quiet, this is the place. Everything you need. A second bathroom would have been handy.
After the initial disappointment with the reservation, this alternative was absolutely the best. Many thanks again to LekkeSlaap's staff for all the effort!
Nice and spacious. Chairs and sofas in living room are old and old fashioned. Everything you need in the kitchen. Grills at outdoor barbecues are very busy and unusable. Towels slightly worn and old. Path and steps to beach are a winner - well maintained. Main entrance's security gate was out of order for three weekdays. Will go back again but then I will make sure everything is taken care of above.
Incredibly peaceful and quiet and ideal for a break from the hustle and bustle. The service was excellent and every morning the unit is cleaned nicely. Thank you very much for friendly service.
We had an excellent break. Lovely place to stay and would certainly recommend it to anyone. The peace and quiet was amazing.
The road to the resort is not the best, nor are the directions to the site. But it was worth it!
Wonderful view and very neat accommodation. Everything you need for one fantastic weekend for the whole family. Wish we could have stayed longer, but will definitely be back!
Pure nature's paradise, but with all the home comforts and safety measures you'd expect.
See the stars below.
Please search for me a piece of land nearby, because I want to live there in 5 years :-)
At reception we were greeted kindly and that always makes the long drive enjoyable. The accommodation was excellent and well appointed.
Everything is clean and beautiful. Ideal for relaxing!
The unit we booked was not available to us when we arrived. This meant that we had to temporarily move into another unit and could only get the unit we had booked the next day (Monday). However, the management compensated us for the inconvenience and we had a great time. We will definitely recommend the resort and visit there ourselves again if the opportunity arises.
The view from the Chalets is fantastic! All problem we encountered was that the main bedroom's bed is hopelessly too small for tall and tall people!
See the stars below.
I was pleasantly surprised not only by the setting, but also how I was received by Lauren at reception. I will recommend the place to my friends.
