KaiaMina at Hartenbos is a well-equipped modern apartment situated in a lovely, quiet neighbourhood in Hartenbos hills. It offers the best if both worlds being far enough from holiday the buzz, but close enough to the popular beachfront (2,5 km) and the centre of town. After a busy day on the beach, browsing through shops or gallivanting along the Garden Route, guests can rest under the stars on the deck or next to the braai. The unit offers easy access to the main access ways to Mossel Bay and Oudtshoorn as well as the N2 en route to Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth), George, as well as Geaorge Airport, Cape Town and the beautiful Garden Route.
Guests can enjoy a lovely view of the Outeniqua Mountains, the Hartenbos River and a limited sea view from the deck above the apartment.
The unit comprises an open plan kitchen, living area and sleeping area. There is no separate bedroom and the unit can accommodate up to 2 guests on a double bed and 2 single beds (day bed with an underbed). The unit is more than sufficient for 2 adults but can accommodate 2 children, or 3 adults. There is a full, separate bathroom fitted with a bath and a shower. Please note that we do not provide towels, so guests have to bring their own bath and swimming towels along.
The open-plan kitchen features a fridge/freezer, 2-plate stove, mini-oven, microwave, and a toaster with a 4-slice function.
An outside basin and shower is also available to rinse one's beachwear and wash off sand. A washing line and drying rack is available.
Other amenities include an air-conditioner, a handgun safe, free Wi-Fi and a TV with a Disney+ and Netflix. Guests can bring along their own decoder. There is an extra long HDMI cable for any suitable device. Guests also have access to the deck, braai facilities, garden seating and safe covered parking right in front of the apartment.
The unit is on the ground floor in front of the main house which means that guests can come and go without being bothered. The entire front garden is also for guests' private use. Covered parking is available right in front of the apartment.
We offer a laundry service at additional cost. If arranged beforehand, we also provide a basic takeaway breakfast pack at extra cost.

Fantastic place! A little out of the buzz and very comfortable, clean and tidy. We have booked many places through the website and honestly have to say this unit is definitely one of the best. The host and hostess are very friendly and the milk tart and nice coffee when we arrived were really nice and made you feel at home right away. Unit is very well equipped too!

We were 2 adults and 1 child. The apartment is wonderfully spacious. Everything was clean and tidy. We were kindly received and thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The milk tart in the fridge was the cherry on the cake — the best ever! KaiaMina is for sure our "go to" accommodation in the future in Hartenbos.
A warm welcome with the most delicious home-baked milk tart and cappuccino each! Very reasonable price!
Many thanks to Elmien and Adriaan for the beautiful place and the delicious milk tart and coffee. I recommend your place 100 times to anyone.
The hospitality, greeted with filtered coffee, milk tart and delicious wafer chocolate. A silver clean unit and a loving host. What more could you ask for away from home? Thank you very much Kaiamina, 5-star facility.
The hostess bakes the most delicious milk tart for the guests. Best I've ever eaten. Will definitely come again.
The view, tranquility and setting are fantastic. It's a very comfortable apartment. Thank you Elmien for all the kindness, milk pie and coffee. We had a great stay and everything you could possibly need was for sale at the nearby Langeberg Center. We would definitely recommend the place and would easily stay longer if we could. Thank you very much for everything. We appreciate it.
The place is centrally located and close to everything needed. The milk tart was fantastic and would use the place again anytime. Thank you.
Had a super nice time. Residents were so warm and welcoming.
Excellent welcome and hospitality.
Address is correct, we felt safe and were not bothered by the owner at all. Very clean and beautiful.
From the books. The best in a long time. Neat, well equipped accommodation. Incredibly friendly hostess and her husband. Safe environment and beautiful view! Near Hartenbos' seafront. Delicious coffee and milk tart on our arrival, definitely a winner. Thank you very much Elmin. Would definitely recommend the nice place, value for money.
Very neat and friendly.
Nice clean place and got nice milk pie and coffee when he checked in. He would definitely recommend it to others.
Very peaceful atmosphere. The milk tart was excellent. Very friendly hostess.
KaiaMina is indeed spotless, modern, tastefully and comfortably furnished - we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Adriaan and Elmien are also lovely people with an eye for detail and a heart for their guests - thank you for a lovely week in Hartenbos and for all the treats too!
A very pleasant place. Value for money. Definitely on my top 10 list of awesome stays.
Comfortable, neat home that is excellently and tastefully equipped. We were kindly received by Elmien and welcomed with a delicious home-baked milk tart in the fridge. The house was very neat, clean, comfortable and well equipped. More than enough hanging cupboards and drawers for clothing etc. Had covered parking right in front of the door, which was very convenient for dropping off and picking up luggage. There is no fence, but it seems to be a safe environment. This accommodation offers good value. Guests just need to remember to bring their own towels and a battery lamp for use during load shedding.
Be welcomed with a delicious milk tart and percolated coffee. Adriaan and lmien were very hospitable.
Thank you very much for the milk tart and coffee, Elmien! It really was a very big treat!
Friendly and warm hostess. Unit is nice and private.
Very friendly welcome with the most delicious milk tart. Very neat. Everything one needs. Definitely a 'must visit again'.
Very neat and clean. Does not provide towels, would have been nice if it was indicated so on the website. Ideal for an overnight stop, which is what we used it for. The treats were something else, especially the delicious milk tart.
Very good place to overnight.
We recommend KaiaMina with great confidence. First class hospitality with great pampering. Grateful for the opportunity.
Hostess is incredibly helpful and cares about her guests. Thank you Elmien, it is really appreciated.
Visit was too short.
I would go back in a heartbeat, my welcome was awesome, warm and heart-felt. This place is really a true gem of a getaway and I will definitely go back.
Slept well and had a nice stay. We were kindly received. Showed around where everything is and was surprised with homemade milk tart in the fridge.
Fully equipped, extremely tidy. Really value for money. Friendly reception with a pot of steaming coffee and milk tart. One cannot ask for more.
Everything you need and more. Surprised with milk tart on arrival. Very nice stay.
It's the little things that make the difference. Very neat and spacious apartment. Attention to detail and small differences that really make you feel at home, such as hot coffee prepared in advance, delicious baked goods in the fridge, very tasteful decor, etc. Will definitely use again if I go that direction.
This is a modern apartment, which is well equipped, for very good value for money. On our arrival, we were very kindly received by Elmien, with the smell of coffee in a coffee machine, and as a big surprise, a milk tart in the fridge, baked by one of the daughters in the house! Incorrigible. KaiaMina is definitely recommended. Just a pity we could only spend one night there.
The host and lady were very friendly and helpful. Thank you for making our overnight stay comfortable after our long drive. All amenities were available.
Good value for money, excellent and friendly customer service, extremely tidy and equipped with everything you need, close to all shopping centers and beaches and good security. Looking forward to our next visit!
KaiaMina is excellently equipped and sparkling clean. Elmien is a great hostess and we were spoiled with the welcome. Can recommend KaiaMina with confidence. Exceptionally good value for money.

It was wonderful. The owners are hospitable and helpful. We had no shortage of tools in the apartment. Everything was so clean, it felt like everything was bought new. We would go again anytime, no doubt.

Nice, tidy and well-equipped accommodation. There is a lot of pampering waiting for you if you choose to stay here (there is something delicious waiting in the fridge, coffee was freshly made when we arrived, more treats in the mugs on the counter). Quiet environment, still close to all shops restaurants etc. Thank you very much for allowing us to have such a nice stay.

Pleasant surprise and very tasty milk tart.
Thank you very much Adriaan and Elmien, we had a great holiday, see you again soon!
We were greeted kindly by the owners and immediately made to feel this. After the president's announcement that the beaches were closing here along the Garden Route, they even offered to compensate us for the nights we cut short our holiday. Furthermore, there is everything one needs to make your holiday as comfortable as possible. Was really value for money.
KaiaMina was exactly what we were looking for and more. Wonderful service, neat and comfortable. Elmien and Andries made us feel very at home and went the extra mile to make us feel welcome. Will use and recommend KaiaMina again anytime.
It's a beautiful place, fully equipped and good value for money.
This place is beautiful and all the facilities one needs is provided. Would definitely stay there again. We would definitely recommend it.

Friendly warm welcome. It was absolutely neat, peaceful and accommodating in all areas. We will refer any educated person to it.
I have never experienced such hospitality in my life. From the welcome to farewell. The milk tart in the fridge was a big surprise and the farewell plant was very special. The location is perfect and the apartment is incredibly neat.
We had a great time in the beautiful and clean KaiaMina in Hartenbos, will definitely stay there again. The owners are also very friendly and make you feel so welcome.
Thank you very much Adriaan and Elmien. The accommodation was really perfect, value for money, clean and tidy! What was probably the most noticeable is how clean it is, and thank you very much for the DStv and the gifts, you are great! We had a good time, barbecued and rested! I recommend you for sure, and you will see us again after the new arrival!
We only stayed one night and arrived very late, but we were still so kindly received by Adriaan. The accommodation is beautifully cozy and the decor looks cheerful. The sign by the door with our names on it was a welcome sight. We had a very nice stay, had everything we could need, even a hairdryer which is not always available in most self-catering places. The milk tart in the fridge was a lovely surprise. Many thanks Adriaan and Elmien for a beautiful place. We will definitely recommend to family and friends.
Very nice stay and will use again.
Very pleasant and peaceful place. Friendly reception and quiet and private living area. Neatly laid out with all amenities needed to facilitate a stay. Uncapped WiFi is a bonus.
