It had been a very nice place. Everything you need for an awesome weekend was available. Everything was neat and clean. You just feel welcome upon arrival.
Fantastic place to stay, right on the sea with an incredible view.
Lovely home! Best views.
We had a great stay! The view is of course the highlight. The house is very well equipped with everything needed. It is clean and tidy. The area is very quiet and peaceful.
SeaKaya is a nice spacious place and well equipped with everything needed. Perfect indoor barbecue for windy evenings. Garage is also a winner. Right by the sea with a "stunning" view from the house and the porch. We enjoyed our stay there very much!
Scenery was breathtaking. The view from the main room was just lovely. Entire stay was wonderful.
The view is particularly beautiful. The house is very spacious and the porch was lovely for coffee every morning. The kitchen is well equipped and when the wind blew terribly we were grateful that there was an indoor braai.
Despite the stormy weather, it was nice. View was exactly what we were looking for. Also note that you advertise that there is a bathtub in 1 of the bathrooms, which there was not. Both bathrooms have a shower only.
The place was painfully neat and clean. Our puppy went along and she was very safe. It is indeed an older home that is very basic equipped. The shower was terribly messy and we couldn't find mops or cloths to dry the floor.
It was delicious as always.
The place is awesome and I will be visiting soon again.
Hospitality and helpfulness are excellent! The view is beautiful and everything is very neat and well equipped. I would definitely recommend it!
It had been great, except that we were without power for 2 days. It would have been nice if there was a gas duster. We should have gone and bought one. Other than that it was great. The sea view was great. I will definitely book again for the summer months.
Would definitely recommend and go again. The indoor grill is an absolute winner. Even power outages didn't bother us. Lights worked and what a surprise, Wi-Fi also worked during load shedding times. The view is beautiful! Hear and see the sea right in front of you. Very secure with alarms and gate that locks, and the garage is nice and big. Any large vehicle can fit comfortably.
It was myself and my Jack Russell for a weekend away in a well-known area, and this was the perfect place to relax and rest. Definitely, a place I will be visiting again! Thanks for the best place by far.
We have booked the house four times and have never regretted it. Very clean and tidy and spacious. Perfect for casual get-togethers.
It was fantastic. The view of the sea on the veranda and when you wake up in the morning is breathtaking. The friendliness of the key carrier was excellent.
We sat outside until late and just enjoyed the sea. The view is fantastic. I will definitely visit there again.
I would definitely go again. SeaKaya offers everything. We really enjoyed ourselves, thank you for the nice weekend. It was worth it and Minnie was very friendly. Thanks Llewellyn.
We were there for a week just after New Years. Although we didn't have good weather every day, the house was comfortable for any circumstances. It is very central and you can quickly drive out to places like Pearly Beach, Kleinbaai and Stanford. There is a lot to do in the area. We were 6 people but there is enough sleeping space for 8. The house is very basic with WiFi and TV (own DSTV taken along), everything we needed was there. We definitely want to go again, if we can find a place.
Great holiday with awesome views. House clean and comfortable. Will definitely go again.
Bokkie and Minnie were very helpful before and during our stay at SeaKaya. The views of this place are wonderful! Sitting outside on the deck and watching the water while having breakfast and lunch was so peaceful and recharging. There is a lot of space, so bigger groups would have a great time. The yard and grass are also really nice, and the modern bathroom is great. One area that I rated lower was cleanliness. When we packed up and cleaned on our last day, we realised there was a lot of dog hair in each of the rooms we were in (bedroom, kitchen, braai area, bathroom), so this was a bit off-putting since we didn't have any pets with us and I'm not too fond of dog hair being everywhere, especially in the area where we eat. Other than that, we enjoyed every moment of being there and would definitely love to be back.
It's wonderful that there is WiFi now too, and the new bathroom they redid looks beautiful. Unfortunately there was an Eskom fault and the power was off from Friday night to Saturday afternoon and it would have been very nice to have a gas stove for morning coffee, but it actually added an extra adventure to the weekend.
Loved the scenery, friendly neighbourhood, close by shops. The first night alarm tripped and security responded. The night before we left the beams tripped and we pressed the panic alarm twice and only after a telephone call to the security company did they respond. The house is well equipped. We were pleasantly surprised by the loadshedding bulbs that helped a lot during loadshedding. We would recommend a gas stove to help during loadshedding. It was very hot and we couldn't swim in the small tidal pool and the kiddies' pool stayed dirty. Be aware of the guys walking around on the beach, the road to the tidal pool is very busy, and be prepared for traffic and kids walking up and down.
From friendly Uncle Deon (thanks Uncle!), coastal walks (which literally start across the street), accommodation that will meet anyone's basic needs, to a lock-up garage and alarm system to make you feel safe. Here you can really rest and relax. Gansbaai's supermarkets are literally 8 minutes' drive away. We will discuss again. For sure! Maybe just build a canopy on the deck. The sun is burning on the deck.
Our 2nd stay at SeaKaya for 2022 and just loved it! Very nice holiday home with a beautiful sea view. Walking distance to the shops. Spacious with big garden and everything we needed. Will definitely be back!
View excellent. Would definitely recommend home.
Would definitely recommend!
Nice big, well equipped place with a fantastic view. My favorite in Gansbaai.
SeaKaya can be confidently recommended. Location is fantastic with a lovely sea view!
What a beautiful house next to the beach. When we got home, I booked it again for another longer stay later in the year. Lots of space, neat and has everything you need for a pleasant visit. Sat on the balcony for hours to watch the sunset and how lovely it was to hear the waves when we woke up in the morning. House is enclosed with a large garden for dogs. Definitely recommendable and worth the money.
Very neat, spacious house with the best view. Unfortunately, the whales stayed away. SeaKaya is for sure the place to stay. WiFi would have been just the icing on the cake.
It has the most beautiful view, the porch is lovely. The place caters to all your basic needs.
Lovely stay, very clean.
It would only be a bigger plus if WiFi is available. Cell phone reception is very poor and no WiFi.
Very comfortable and clean. Would love to use SeaKaya again. Thank you very much!
A real seaside cottage with a phenomenal view of the sea from the balcony, living area and master bedroom. The indoor braai was so cozy with the little storm we had and on the one beautiful day we saw so many whales which ended our weekend so nicely. The hospitality was also exceptional and so friendly!
Awesome view and stay.
The house is very comfortable with all the comforts. Built-in braai awesome, awesome views from patio. Will definitely be back.
We always travel with our dog and she was safe in the large enclosed garden. This is the first time we have travelled to the area out of season, and it was perfect for us.
Wow, this place was lovely and exactly what we needed to switch off from the busy city work life. We brought our stepchildren with us this time. My heart was happy to be able to see my stepchildren could play safely at this big house. Just across the road you can also go for a walk with the woofs. Everything was just delicious, the view was incredibly beautiful. Nice holiday home. We are going to come back to the same house for sure.
It's the ideal place to see whales right from the porch.
Enjoying your first cup of coffee in the morning while watching playful whales from a comfort of your bed. Thank you Sea Kaya!
You couldn't ask for a better location. Views are lovely and the walking trail passes in front of the house. Although it is an older house, it has everything one needs for a comfortable stay.
We really relaxed and rested and because we could go with 2 dachshunds it made it so much easier for us. The location is perfect and it's beautiful.
We could relax wonderfully. The house has everything needed and we will definitely book again. The view of the sea and bay from the living room and bedroom is really beautiful. It was also great to be able to take our dog child with us.
This house is right across the ocean with amazing sea views. The rooms are good sized and the bathrooms clean. You can see they took care with the revamp and it really looks nice. The braai room is a bit small but really cosy on a cold stormy night and once you open the front door and kitchen sliders it feels much larger. The kettle and toaster are mentioned below as being a bit of a stretch, however, my daughter is quite short but could still reach. The microwave is a bit high, but we never used it. We had stormy weather, so the house was rather cold, but the beds were warm. Panel heaters in the rooms and lap blankets would help for off-season visits. The stairs might put some people off, but the backdoor only has 2 steps down to the yard so I would not let that deter you. We went with our dog and the yard is enclosed and there is enough grass to romp around on. There are walking paths just across the road and a tidal pool/swimming area/braai area. I highly recommend Sea Kaya and we would love to visit again.
The view from the balcony is really amazing, there is also everything you need, an indoor and outdoor barbecue. It was really a privilege for us.
The kitchen and indoor grill area is smaller than I expected, but you definitely don't need anything more. Most of our time at home was outside on the deck or inside at the dining room table. The view from both is amazing. The house is neat and clean. Our dog child was safe while we went to visit the surrounding towns. Will definitely rent the house again on our next visit.
Our family really enjoyed it. Enough space for everyone and the sunset is stunning.
Perfectly equipped sea house! Nothing more needed. We had such a good time and relaxed. If the weather is bad you sit for hours at the dining room table overlooking the sea and on nice days on the stoep. Hours of relaxing on the porch and children can play safely in the fenced yard.
We only stayed two nights to visit family but I regret we couldn't stay longer. The house is spacious and tidy and value for money. The house sits on the sea (not a swimming beach) but the view is absolutely fantastic. Kitchen may be a bit small if there are 8 guests staying for a longer period.
The place is very neat and clean. The layout of the living and braai area is wonderful because you don't have to sit outside in the wind and sun to see the beautiful view. It is a very quiet area. I would not recommend using the tidal pool downstairs as it looks like there is a bit of a party going on. But still there was no noise or anyone bothering. My sons went fishing on the rocks and I could watch them from the cottage.
Will definitely use the accommodation again.
We had a fantastic 3 days. The location is spectacular. 360 degrees ocean views with walking trails right in front. Very comfortable house, with warm cosy bedding. Braai room has door directly to patio with views. Being right on the sea front it can be windy and this feature with an indoor braai with direct access to views was great. Definitely recommend this property.
Seekaya is neat and well equipped. It's nice and quiet and perfect for a weekend away from noise. You can rest well. View is breathtaking. There is an alarm system. So no need to worry about security. Will visit Seekaya again anytime.
Beautiful sea view and location with lovely patio. Neat house, everything you need is there. Small but comfortable indoor barbecue patio. Booking was handled excellently with fantastic customer service. Will definitely book again in the future.
Spacious rooms, view is fantastic, clean and tidy. Kitchen power points awkward and could do with extra work surface. Large nice porch with comfortable chairs. Gate can also do with electric motor. Especially in rainy times. Will definitely stay there again and recommend.
Nothing fancy and very basic, but everything that's necessary. Would have liked blankets though. Very neat and clean house and friendly service. Will definitely go again!
SeaKaya is definitely affordable and has the best views! We enjoyed the sunset so much and the whales came to visit! The house is perfectly located, and well furnished with everything you would need! Definitely going back again!
SeaKaya was definitely a good choice for us. Enough rooms for all of us with a breathtaking view of the sea which is just across the road. Will definitely book with SeaKaya again if I go to Gansbaai again.
Place is very neat, beautiful sea view. Definitely worth is to get away from the busy city-life.
Well furnished with all the basics. The most beautiful view from the deck. We were pleasantly surprised with SeaKaya. Will be back soon!
The location of the house is perfect, very close to the sea with a breathtaking view. The house has more than enough space with more than enough seating, even though the kitchen is a bit small with a small 2-plate stove. Maintenance work is needed for the doors except this, I would highly recommend. Thank you so much for the wonderful time.
It's a very nice house. Indoor braai area a little too small, but will stay there again any time.
House right on the sea. We really enjoyed our time there. Old house with old rattan furniture but the view and location more than make up for it. We will stay at SeaKaya again. Definitely affordable accommodation.
The location is excellent - right in front of the coastline. However, the house looks bigger than it is. Since we were there in winter, the braai room was the heart of the place. It's very small though. It could not accommodate the entire group of 8. The interior fireplace in the living room is closed. It would have been good for warmth. The kitchen is also very small without much work space with a mobile two plate stove and oven. A plus is that there are two bathrooms. The beds were also good. Overall this is a good summer holiday home - not for winter.
Weather was fantastic this time of year. All amenities you'd need are provided. Very nice view. Just what we needed for the weekend.
Very beautiful and well equipped place.
Wonderful view with sufficient secure parking.
Nice at the seaside.
Seakaya has a great view. Place is neat and tidy.
We had a great stay at SeaKaya. The 'cherry' on the cake was of course that there were no water restrictions! The accommodation is very affordable. The road along the sea is directly opposite the house, and the view from the deck is breathtaking when the sun goes down. Definitely a nice house for a family or a group of friends for a nice weekend getaway.
The house is old but neat. Very quiet area and by the sea. Everything is clean and tidy. Good value for money. Thanks kid.
Nice secure place to stay with kids.
Me and my husband had a wonderful peaceful stay. Although the house was old, it was neat and had everything we needed. Will definitely stay again.
We really enjoyed our stay and will recommend it. Nice house for social with lots of space and large garden with gate and wooden floors creates warm, cosy atmosphere even if it is cold outside.
Even though the house is quite old we found SeaKaya pleasant for our weekend stay. The size of the house with 4 bedrooms made us choose SeaKaya. Everything we needed was there. The house was very clean. The location of SeaKaya is very good with the ocean across the road.
