Had a great time, will definitely go again.
My parents, brother and I stayed at Duifieklip for one week at the end of February 2024. I was torn about leaving a review because I don't want word to get out how fantastic this holiday home is! Lol! The location being on the ocean is spectacular. The garden leading to the ocean is so pretty, filled with a huge variety of birds, and hearing the birds chirping made our holiday special. The sounds of the gulls and the waves created a feeling of peace. The house itself was more than perfect! It had everything one would want for a truly comfortable vacation. There are so many features to mention at Duifieklip: The downstairs braai area/stoep with table was perfect, the lounge, kitchen, downstairs dining area, upstairs patio with unbelievable views. Each of the bedrooms had ensuite bathrooms. The garage had an extra fridge with washer and dryer. Kayaks, life vests, sun umbrellas and so much more to make for a perfect, perfect holiday. We felt very safe as the house has an alarm system and is well situated for safety. The house is close to a local shopping village, the Spar and several lovely restaurants. Paternoster is 20-30 mins away, Stompneus baai has a lovely beach and we found lots to do in the area. All in all, we did not want for a thing and our expectations were exceeded.
We had the best time at Duifieklip celebrating my 40th birthday. We were 6 adults and toddlers. The house has everything you need, it's right on the beach and the garden is perfect for kids to play. We had the most relaxing weekend sitting outside, playing board games and strolling down to the beach to go fishing & kayaking. The house was clean with an impressive library, every kitchen utensil you could ever need and an inverter in case of load shedding. We all said we would definitely be back! What a beautiful home in a beautiful part of South Africa.
It was one of the most enjoyable vacations for our family. Duifieklip and all its involved staff are absolutely wonderful!
Terribly nice stay!
The house is literally on the beach. It is built in such a way that you can have a wonderful time on the stoep, no matter how strong the wind blows. The house has everything you could possibly need during your visit. The alarm system also made us feel very safe when we went out or went to bed at night. Hostess was always friendly and helpful. Would recommend this place anytime.
Everything you need from a holiday home under one roof. Paradise on the beach. Love the garden, the layout of the house, how close it is to the beach, the sea views. The list is just endless. Look no further. Will return and return and return.
A place for rejuvenation, watching the different moods of the ocean. Located right off the beach. So well equipped. A safe, sheltered bay. The host is such a responsive host. We will definitely be back.
The accommodation is exceptional and the location fantastic. Combined with the West Coast friendliness, this is definitely a winner.
Duifieklip was the ideal location for our getaway. Beautiful, clean house with everything you need (and more). Everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. We will definitely visit Duifieklip again.
Lovely stay and definitely value for money. Place is very nice and will see me again soon!
The house is equipped with absolutely everything to ensure a lovely, luxurious holiday. Glauda is super helpful and just really nice. Dierdré allowed us to take our dogs with us, and we and the four-legged friends really had a great time and played wonderfully in the rock pools. The house and garden are artistic, the book collection excellent, the kitchen has everything you can dream of, comfortable beds, beautiful view and is wonderfully quiet. Full marks!
Probably the nicest place yet. Fantastic view. House fully equipped with everything and more. Hostess very friendly.
See stars.
Arrived earlier than expected to a windy St. Helena. The house is very well equipped, and the stoep overlooking the ocean is where most of our time was spent. A very nice and quiet location with great views.
Ten out of ten. Nice garden and sea front.
Very good value for money. Cute place with everything you could possibly need.
Everything was good and we loved the house. And the view was beautiful.
The 2 living areas, bathroom in each room, view and power system for load shedding make it an incredible holiday getaway. Would definitely recommend.
Very friendly owners, clear and fast communication.
Great location. Beautiful view. The house have everything you need. Excellent place for a short holiday with family and friends.
House has all you need, even a backup inverter that really helps in today's SA, having continued use of the internet, TV, lights and alarm. Great views, fantastic well-maintained garden, my wife was able to garden 50 metres from the ocean! Dierdre kindly agreed to allow us to take our 2 dogs and 1 of them didn't want to leave! The selection of books is amazing, would need to stay longer just to read more of them. Even the cleaner was polite and friendly. The only negative was I left some clothing behind that I'm still hopeful will be found. We will be back.
Stunning location. House has everything you need. Garden is brilliant.
Wow is the only way to describe Duifieklip. My family and I had the most incredible time and the stunning house is fully equipped with everything you would ever need. The beach right outside the front door was amazing - we walked there every morning and evening. Our pup Isabelle had the time of her life running on the beach and climbing the rocks and playing with the neighbour's dogs. The kids had a ball being out in nature, and could still chill upstairs with Netflix when they felt like it. I cannot stress enough how great this place is. So relaxing, peaceful, the sound of the ocean, sweet little birds right on your doorstep, looking at the moon and stars so clearly each night; this really was the most incredible stay we have ever had. 11 out of 10! Thanks so much to the website, our host Glauda, and especially to the awesome owner who went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay. It's so rare to find someone who actually cares so much about their guests - most places just care about the money - but Deirdre is an absolute angel who accommodated us at every turn. Thank you, thank you, thank you Deirdre - I will be recommending Duifieklip to everyone I know, and I cannot wait to come back again next year!
It was great weekend.
A cuddly, homey, feel-at-home-visit-house! Fully equipped. The view is enchantingly beautiful. The beach on your doorstep. Dierdre, your piece of heaven on earth has crawled under our skin! We feel wonderfully rested and everyone's hearts beat in rhythm again!
We had an awesome time at the house! The host was super friendly, flexible with check-in/check-out times and easy to communicate with. The house was perfect for our group of friends. Beautiful location right on the beach with kayaks available for use. Everything we needed to have a good time!
Everything was top notch: location in Hannas Bay, orientation (north), environment (St. Helena Bay), the house so close to the sea beach, the vegetation transition from the house to the sea beach, the view, the house's layout, furniture and equipment (especially the kitchen), cleanliness and care, everything working and correct! One of our best vacations yet.
The relaxed comfort, generously equipped kitchen, the garden and the books!
Duifieklip is idyllic with a beachfront location on a beautiful little beach. The house is very comfortably furnished with a beautiful garden and everything and more that is needed for guests' stay. The environment is quiet and peaceful and we enjoyed walking on the beach and using the house's kayaks. The view from the veranda on both the ground and upper floor is fantastic. The bird life (garden and sea) is exceptional. The stay was truly wonderful and we would recommend it anytime. We will definitely want to visit Duifieklip again. Deirdre was a very good hostess and the administration was easy and quick.
We needed a break from the city and this was it! Firstly the customer service from Deirdre as well as Glauda was great! The house has a nice amount of space which runs into a beautiful water wise garden and extending into the ocean. The view is amazing. Its relaxing, peaceful and quiet. Long walks on the beach and beautiful sunsets! Pica Pizza next to the Spar makes great pizzas by the way! I would absolutely recommend this accommodation to family and friends. Thank you Deirdre (your book collection is great too).
Literally on the beach, beautiful sea view, spacious and well equipped accommodation provided with everything you can think of - exceptional birdlife. Really value for money. No disturbance from neighbors or surrounding residents.
The weekend as family and friends was one of admiring the surroundings, beautiful views, exciting beach trips, having fun together and eating on the veranda. Duifieklip is full of amenities and distractions to keep you busy. Thanks for the great service and home from home!
Duifieklip is always our preferred place to stay when we visit St Helena Bay. Close to the waters; the house has everything you need for a relax stay (including DStv and WiFi for the teenagers). Close to the shops and restaurants. Thank you once again Deirdre for making your holiday home available to us.
See rating.

Duifieklip was a lovely place to stay, equipped with everything we could possibly need. We had fun cooking and grilling. The children loved the beach and really enjoyed the buckets and fishing nets. We spent hours on the porch looking at the sea. The beds were comfortable, there were plenty of towels, and there was even DStv if we wanted to leave the view for a while. We really felt at home and would love to visit again! Thank you very much for a comfortable and beautiful place to stay for our holiday!
We were privileged to spend 11 wonderful days in your beautiful, spacious home. This was our first break to St Helena Bay and we love the area and especially your location in the bay. We are used to rental units that only provide the basic amenities and therefore we were pleasantly surprised with how you have artistically and thoughtfully furnished your vacation home to feel like a home rather than a temporary place of residence. The beautiful diverse works of art, comfortable furniture, good kitchenware and implements, lots of games, lots of lounging areas and use of the kayaks put this getaway in a completely different class. We took lovely walks in the hills and enjoyed the wonderful sea view from the verandas and garden. The creme de la creme was when quite a few whales were close enough one afternoon for us to paddle out with the kayaks for breathtaking interaction - we were at times as close as about 10 meters - a once in a lifetime experience! We'll be back! Thank you for your willingness to make this "heaven on earth" available!
Duifieklip is really a fantastic and very well located getaway to find rest for your soul. The sea view from the veranda with sea and bird sounds is truly a blessing. The house itself is very neatly furnished with lots of space and the balcony has a beautiful sea view. Will very definitely come here again.
It was one of the best break-aways that we had in a while and we wished we could have stayed longer. The family enjoyed the fact that the water was a few steps away. The house had all the luxury that was needed. Thank you for the opportunity to enjoy your home.
We were very surprised with the house's good location and view. The house was fully equipped and very comfortable. We can definitely recommend it.
Excellent location, very nice stay. Would love to visit again and stay longer. Can highly recommend it. Well equipped house with whatever you need. Thank you Dierdre and your team - you are tops!
A beautiful home with the most stunning location. All amenities inside and kayaks for use in the flat sea. Was very sad to leave.
Receiving such warmth and friendliness from the owner as well as the hostess is not something one sees everyday. Thank you so much for a lovely time. This is the absolute perfect space to break away from the hustle of city life, and kick back and enjoy nature and family time. You can expect me back.
A great family location. House is fully loaded with all you need and more. We will definitely visit again and highly recommend it to anyone wanting a break from their hustle and bustle lifestyle.
Not advised for people with mobility problems. According to me, stairs are not safe, no railings on open side, but it is indeed a wonderful place, will not mind retiring there.
We really liked Duifiesklip. It's so peaceful and everyone's "batteries" were recharged. The place is perfectly furnished with everything you need. The perfect retreat for people and families who love nature and the coast. The only negative comment is that we had to be out by 9 am even though the website's rules indicate 10 am. It was a rush and things got left behind.
We thoroughly enjoyed our rest and visit at Duifieklip. Thank you for a clean and tidy accommodation with an abundance of everything one might need. We will definitely visit again but this time it will be with my grandchildren. Dierdre, thank you for the personal attention.
Would definitely recommend if you want to switch off and rest.
Pleasure to stay in a place with everything you need and more. The view of the sea and harbor was beautiful. Except for the strong smell of the fish factory we would like to return again.
My daughter and I were privileged to stay at Duifieklip for 6 days. Our goal was to rest and that's what we did. The area was so quiet and peaceful. The house has a lovely location en well equipped, with absolutely everything you need to stay comfortably, even though we didn't cook at all. We just bought take-aways. The owner and ladies who helped her with cleaning/opening etc. is unbelievably friendly and helpful. We can't wait to come and relax again. Thanks a lot, Duifieklip, until we meet again!
Friendly agent with a house full of warm and cozy atmosphere. Everything you need is there. We were even able to bake a cake soon! The beautiful garden with the birds and voles in front is really special. The most beautiful beach. The children had such a fantastic time! Quiet streets for cycling and a holiday atmosphere with everyone's barbecues lit. Thank you very much.
I recommend Duifieklip 100% especially if you are looking for something quiet and rustic where the family can just rest and spend time together. The accommodation is clean and modern. The view is amazing and it's on the beach!
Pretty place, quiet and a beautiful view. Everyting you need. Will definitely make use of the house again.
Our weekend away to Duifieklip was amazing! We were welcome with open arms. Excellent and friendly service from the management. The view was breathtaking. The house was phenomenal. The house was spacious, neat and clean. Our family had the best time and I would recommend Duifieklip to anyone who enjoys the outdoor life by the beach. We will definitely come again. Thank you so much.
Fantastic view and the birdlife is exceptional at the top. Very beautiful native plant garden with exceptional interweaving of environment and rocks. Very friendly and extremely helpful reception. 10/10. Will stay there again for sure.
I would highly recommend this establishment.
