137 guests' feedbackIt was a wonderful 2 days of rest and visiting. Everything was our standard.
We had such a nice stay!
Everything you need is there. Slept well and could sit outside away from it all.
Located near everything, safe and tidy.
Had a great sleep, had a nice coffee on the stoep and experienced the most beautiful birds. Liz and Mike are friendly. Walking distance from sea. We definitely recommend the accommodation in Cape Agulhas which is very beautiful.
Lovely cozy nicely furnished room.
Very nice! All facilities available - hostess very friendly and nice! Will definitely come again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the accommodation was perfect for us. We will definitely return in future.
Cottage is spacious and homely furnished. Neat, clean and quiet. WiFi and TV with DSTV worked well. The beds feel a bit older but still sleep relatively comfortably.
Nice stay. Friendly owners.
Everything you need and more. Hostess is so friendly and helpful, beautiful place.
It was my first time in Aghullas - Struisbaai and we enjouyed the stay at The Gift thoroughly.
The place was really a very nice place. It was small, but just right for 2 people. The lady who lives there is very friendly and made us feel very welcome. My husband and I could just walk around the corner, then we were at the sea.
What an incredible picture book beautiful places. Did a road trip for my 60th birthday. The Gift was absolutely worth it. The owner Liz and her husband make one feel so at home. We will definitely recommend them and visit again.
It was very nice. A very neat place with everything we need. Thank you for the friendly reception.
Even if it's a very short visit just to sleep over at night to do Foot of Africa next morning, I will definitely want to stay there again and for sure longer! Very nice atmosphere and the people are very friendly! I would definitely recommend it!
A perfect little nest a block from the sea. Ideal as a Parkrun overnight stay choice — the start is just 600m from the accommodation. Real people as host and hostess who are standing by with advice and a solution to any problem that may be bothering you. Silver clean. We arrived in a storm and the room was equipped with heating to keep us warm. There's even a kettle for an extra person you may have brought with you to the Southern tip of Africa.
Was surprised to see how neat and cozy the place is. Liz and Mike are two warm people who care about you as a guest. Even went the extra mile by helping when my husband suddenly fell ill. The garden with birds was fantastic. There was a calmness that made you completely relax. Will definitely stay with them again.
The location was clean and very well-kitted. We had everything we needed and felt welcome. The hosts were incredible, allowing us to feel safe and relaxed. They were very friendly and made great efforts to allow for our plans, giving us tips for where to go and making their braai area ready and stocked with wood for us.
Can recommend The Gift with the utmost confidence.
The Gift Mini Studio is perfect! Small but has absolutely everything you need for a weekend away. It is beautiful and clean and the owners are incredibly friendly and helpful. Would recommend to anyone and would definitely book again myself. Our weekend away was wonderful, peaceful and the necessary food for the soul.
Comfortable and there is everything needed. Nice sheltered garden for barbecuing and relaxing. The hostess and host very friendly and helpful. Destination for people who like privacy.
Beautiful place. Delicious breakfast. Nice people.
Had a great time and wish I could have stayed longer.
Our host and wife received us kindly and spared no effort all week to make our stay pleasant. It is a lovely, private granny flat that is well equipped and spotlessly clean and tidy. The ideal base for nature lovers, bird watchers and walkers who want to explore the whole area. We hope to go home there again soon.
We had such a great time and will definitely visit again!
More beautiful than in the photos! Everything one would need is there, down to ground coffee and a plunger. The private garden with trees and many birds creates a peaceful atmosphere. Would love to stay there again.
Needed a place to stay for the NAMPO show and in the photos The Gift looked neat and homely, the reception from Liz was welcome and the room was pointed out, tidy and everything needed was in the room if I may mention one suggestion maybe the owners invest in a small inverter during power outages. Others experience no problem.
Nice stay just slept there.
We had a very nice stay. Liz and her husband were incredibly friendly and even offered to let us have a barbecue on their porch and use their wood and blitz. We were also invited to watch the rugby! It was a very nice getaway. I would recommend the cozy place to anyone!
Great for a quick getaway. Was there on business and stayed two nights extra to fish.
A delightfully enjoyable corner of a house without borders. Not a single corner without a little something that doesn't catch the eye. Quiet and peaceful with the beautiful morning and evening birdsong that greets you. The sea in one's ears and the whistling of the wind. The most beautiful feeling churches. One feels at home and peaceful, but still a holiday atmosphere. A truly unique cottage and feeling of joy, peace and tranquility.
Very neat and pleasant rooms.
Nice and quiet, neat room and very comfortable bed. Safe area and friendly owners. Enjoyed my stay and will go again.
The place is really very cozy. We had a wonderful stay. Bed sleep well. Everything neat and clean with everything you need. Host and hostess very friendly and helpful. We will definitely want to go again. Would have liked to have vehicle a little more sheltered, but the environment is safe.
Liz was very friendly and helpful the place is suitable for 2 people nice and clean and the furniture and everything is beautiful! Thank you, you will definitely book there again!
Very nice place to stay, clean and tidy.
Place is very neat and comfortable for 2 people.
Love the antique furniture and household. Place is amazing specially when you fall asleep with the sound of the ocean and wake with the singing of the birds. Paradise.
Liz offers more than enough for this beautiful and well-equipped room at an affordable price. Although small (which is what we chose), there was everything we needed and more. Would definitely recommend and hope to use you again in the future. Thank you for your hospitality and effort to make us feel welcome. Pray for your Father's goodness and favor on your business.
Plekkie crept into our hearts. Equipped with everything and more. Could stay there permanently.
I once again had a very nice stay. Liz and her husband are so friendly and helpful. The accommodation caters for everything and is as close as you want to walk down to the rocks. The fact that I didn't struggle with the WiFi once all weekend, and a nice size fridge is definitely a plus as well. There aren't many TV channels, but that didn't bother me at all because I don't usually watch TV when I'm at the sea.
We enjoy the vibe visiting the Agulhas / Struisbaai area.
The hosts went out of their way to make our stay as pleasant and comfortable as possible.
The owners were lovely, enjoyed their warmth. Will definitely go again.
Bird life at front door in trees. We could also barbecue. Roster was provided. Feels like home and we felt very much at home. Hostess very friendly and helpful.
OK in terms of the room and facilities, but outside space to sit and relax is very limited.
The accommodation was neat and clean. Enjoyed a peaceful stay.
We would recommend people to use licks sleep anytime. Thank you so much Liz and Mike we had a wonderful time at The Gift.
Host was incredible, very quiet and peaceful place.
A nice quiet street close to everything we wanted to see and do. We were impressed with all that Cape Agulhas has to offer. Would love to go back again to visit the museum at the sky tower. It was due to Covid-19 not yet open to the public when we were there. When we go back we would love to stay at The Gift again.
The owners were very welcoming.
The owners where very friendly and welcoming. Our stay was great.
We had a nice stay and it was adequately equipped.
The place is centrally located. Close to all places that can be visited.
The Gift is fully equipped for 2 people with a.o. all the necessary kitchenware, sink, cutlery, good mattress on the bed, lovely shower, lovely little garden and happy birds. The Gift does not face the sea, but is very close. We walked from there to Agulhas' lighthouse and also the southern tip of Africa a little further on a beautiful boardwalk. The Gift is a lovely place that people who love walking (or cycling) can easily use as a base to explore the surroundings. Struisbaai is also just around the corner from there. This place can be recommended with great confidence!
The place was clean well equipped with all the things you need. Home away from home.
It was very peaceful and safe and I enjoyed it because The Gift is an ideal place for a break.
The room provided had everything that we required. Very clean and cosy. Very welcoming arrival.
Spacious and clean unit. Would recommend and definitely stay there again. Thanks Liz and Mike.
Had a very friendly reception and hospitality. We had such a great time relaxing.
Very cute place with good facilities.
Lovely stay, very tidy. Liz was so thoughtful to have shampoo, conditioner, soap and other bathroom items available for us. I was very grateful for this because I forgot my shampoo. Place is nicely set up for a quick getaway. Close to the sea without being exposed to the busy main road. Wifi is also available.
Perfect as a base to go exploring the local area and returning to a venue we could braai at night, that’s all we needed!
Mike and Liz made us feel at home from the start. Liz was worried about our long visit (17 days) for nothing. With Covid restrictions, they gave alternative suggestions for pastimes away from the beaches. The birds in the garden were awesome. Would definitely recommend The Gift.
Was a very pleasant stay.
The host made us feel very welcome and the place was safe. There was such a nice tranquility there.
Very friendly service, safe room. Bathroom well appointed.
Neat place and friendly owner. It might be good if there could be parking on the premises itself.
There is no secure parking. Wifi is of zero and no value. I couldn't work at all. The hostess's husband is bombastic. Transferred R900 from Capitec to Standard bank. The night when we came back from eating out and stopped on the sidewalk because there is no off street parking, he opened his front door and the first words were - have you paid yet. The room has a door into the main house. It feels like you have no privacy. Wasted 2 days and would not recommend them.
Very friendly welcome. Clean and tidy. Feel safe. Is peaceful and just feels like a place where you can rest.
The apartment is nicely furnished and the kitchen is very well equipped. Sitting in the garden listening to the birds is a great start to the day. Sadly we only had a short stay, but would love to return stay longer. Excellent value for money.
Hostess was very friendly. The room is very nice and comfortable.
Very well equipped, private self-catering unit, neat and clean. We enjoyed the privacy as well as being able to walk in the town and along the sea to the Aguhlas Nature Reserve. Thank you very much Riaan and Annolin
I was very surprised, place perfectly located and close to everything you need, owner very helpful, would really recommend the place
Great, great, great, great, great, great, great.
Very rested and the bikes together with the package for use was very pleasant. Would stay there again anytime.
We stayed one night. Hostess was very friendly and helpful.
Rustig, vreedsaam mooi
It is a pleasure to visit here. They make you feel at home and were helpful in every way.
My wife had a tummy bug just after we arrived there and Mike and Liz were very caring and helped where possible.
The photos don't do complete justice to The Gift. A very cute apartment with beautiful furniture and linen, and very well equipped. Our hosts were very nice and caring. If we have to sleep in the area again, we will definitely return here.
We had a nice stay in our own private garden and lacked for nothing. We would highly recommend The Gift.
Unit is neat, fully equipped and enough space.
We were pleasantly surprised. It met all our expectations and more. The weather was not in our favor, but it was sheltered enough to barbecue. Liz and Mike made our stay a pleasure. Absolutely fantastic for overnight, thank you.
We only stayed there for one night but would definitely go back for a longer period. Liz and her husband are so friendly and make you feel so at home. Great was our surprise when Liz unlocked the door of the cottage, and we saw how cute the place was furnished, with everything one could need. The cleanliness and hygiene struck me, because I'm quite full of nonsense when it comes to that.
The Gift is a beautiful neat place and owners just as friendly! I highly recommend it.
We were received hospitably, it is peaceful and quiet and the garden in front of the unit, beautiful.
Only stayed one night, would have liked to stay longer but had everything we needed. Cape Agulhas and Struisbaai is a place where you can lose your heart. Managers are very friendly and sociable, happy to give advice on places to eat and activities in the town.
Very nice place with brilliant and friendly hosts!
It was a great experience, Mike and Liz went out of their way to help. The networks were down for the card machines and atms and they even offered to lend me cash. They are really amazing people, felt very at home.
What a cosy, "puppy" place! Silver clean, with the finest attention to detail. We had a wonderful stay, the hostess, Liz, welcomed us very kindly. After the 2nd cup of coffee in the beautiful private garden the next morning I had to tear myself away properly to get going. The birds were noticeably tame and were eating and chirping right here close to us. Yes I would recommend it a thousand times!
Very friendly welcome. Neat and clean accommodation that offers more than expected. Would definitely recommend anyone visiting that area to stay there. Liz and her husband were always available to give information about the area. Thank you very much for allowing us to spend the night there for the few days.
We toured and unfortunately only slept one night. But it was lovely there.
Our self-catering was neat. It was very nice and comfortable. The people who accommodated us were friendly and always wanted to make sure everything was ok! I would recommend it to anyone to sleep there!
Liz and Mike were very hospitable and we immediately felt at home. The apartment is very tidy with crisp bed linen and clean towels. We enjoyed the stay very much.
See stars.
The hot water shower faucet did not work after we wanted to shower at 11:00 in the evening after a whole day's travel. Had to open and close the faucet with pliers all weekend. The DStv did not work. The owner didn't even make sure everything was in order before we arrived. We were not very impressed with it and it was the worst overnight choice we have ever made.
Owner Liz and her husband immediately made us feel welcome! House is beautiful, comfortable, neat and central. We had a great time and will definitely book again in the future and recommend it to anyone looking for accommodation where you immediately feel at home!
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at The Gift. The reception and the atmosphere were indescribably good.
Neat place to stay.
See rating.
Mike and Liz are wonderful people. This is not the first time we have stayed with them and we will definitely stay with them again and again in the future. Thank you very much again for your hospitality. We had a really nice stay.
Lovely and clean accommodation. Hospitable owners! Beautiful area!
We were received hospitably. Plekkie was beautiful and clean and cosy! We immediately felt at home, wish we could have stayed longer.
The cottage is beautifully and tastefully furnished and fully equipped. Liz and Mike are very friendly and helpful. Our stay was really pleasant and we would wholeheartedly recommend it.
We notified the owner of the broken shower but apart form that we had good stay and no complaints.
There for one night and well received. Place was easy to find. Very nice place, everything inside the apartment is unique. Fall asleep to the sound of the ocean.
See stars.

Mike and Liz are two wonderful hosts. Nothing was too much trouble and they were very helpful. We use LekkeSlaap a lot and it's one of the best destinations we've stayed at to date.
Felt like home. We felt at home and relaxed immediately. No matter the wind, the little garden is sheltered and comfortable. No sea view, but you could hear the whisper of the sea. Wonderful! The Gift is not just the name of the cottage, Mike and Liz have "the gift" to make people feel at home. They are knowledgeable about the area and very helpful. We will difinitetly call again.
Beautiful place and fully equipped. The owners are very pleasant people - We had a wonderful rest.
Great host and hostess. Neat unit. Had a great time and had a nice walk. Would recommend the place anytime. Neat and clean and well equipped.
We had a very nice, peaceful weekend break.
We had a great stay at The Gift. It was cold, but we made use of the DVDs under blankets which made the day better. It was also nice to be able to ride the bikes with which we could further explore Struisbaai. Would definitely recommend for a couple!
Experiencing typical Cape stormy weather. Good opportunities for photography created. The Gift offers everything, and the traveler does not need to take anything with him. An indoor braai would certainly have come in handy during the stormy weather. There are full facilities outside for when the weather is better.
The advertisement is not a true account of the accommodation.
Affordable, comfortable and convenient. Will definitely stay there again!
We were so happy with our stay. We can't wait to go back!
Mike and Liz are the best hosts ever! We really enjoyed our stay there. The apartment was so beautiful, cozy and clean. From the moment we arrived we felt at home! Liz and Mike were so welcoming and helped us with everything. We were sad that we had to continue with our trip because it was such a great place!
We had a friendly, warm welcome. The place is small, but tastefully furnished with everything you need. The ideal host and hostess, even on one freezing cold day we were surprised with a delicious hot cup of soup. Effort has been made with small things to make you feel immediately at home and special.
We will definitely stay here again! The owners are extremely friendly and helpful and the unit has everything we could need. The silence was wonderful!
Mike and Liz made us feel very welcome and made a lot of effort.
The unit is well and stylishly equipped (without the unnecessary frills and frills that are unfortunately found in so many guesthouses/self-catering units). It's quietly located, very close to the sea. The owners are particularly friendly and helpful, but respect guests' privacy. We had a great stay and would love to come again.
I would stay at The Gift again anytime. Not only is it private and peaceful, but you are warmly welcomed. The day after your first night, you will be asked if everything is up to your expectations. This does not happen at other places. The Gift will get my booking again when we go to the Cape again on leave, and I will definitely speak through LekkeSlaap again. Your service is great!
We only stayed one night and explored L'agulhas and Struisbaai. We had a wonderful stay in the cute, very neat, spotless place with very nice owners.
Ideal for travelers who want to spend the night in a different town. Tidy. Safe. Friendly owners.
It was nice to be able to stay in The Gift and I can recommend the place without a doubt.
It was a very peaceful and nice experience, felt at home and special and will definitely use it again.
Exceptionally kind and friendly owners. Lovely and quiet area.
It was clean and neat with off road parking. The owners went out of their way to make sure that we were comfortable at all times. It was a very peaceful place and we enjoyed the birdlife and the great magazines as well!
Perfect for a weekend getaway!
Nice and clean. Owners are very friendly.
