Incredible views and amazing design. The cottage was very well thought out with a living room, separate bedroom, and connecting outdoor space. Facilities were very thoughtful — outlets everywhere, functional bathroom, etc. Food was very good.

We had an international wine and food society event over the weekend so visited all the wineries in the area as well as Stanford. Gansbaai was in the middle, so to speak, so very convenient for trips.

Gansbaai was a comfortable city with spectacular views where our family explored the southern coast of South Africa. We discovered hidden beaches, spotted many beautiful Protea flowers, sunbathed on Pearly Beach, went to the fish market in the harbor at Gansbaai, lunched on butter chicken and fish and chips at the Blue Goose, restaurant on Hoop St, hiked Klipgat Caves at the Walker Bay Nature Reserve, glimpsed a pod of orcas, and a mother Southern Right whale and her calf, spotted three of the Marine Big 5, dined at the White House, saw Danger Point lighthouse along a four wheel drive track along the beach, found crazy amounts of beautiful shells on the beach. It was an epic adventure.

This a relatively small hotel but beautifully appointed. The property is in a very good location, in a gated development and a beautiful setting overlooking the sea. The bedroom was very comfortable. The restaurant provided an excellent range of wonderfully cooked food, so we ate in both nights. The staff were exceptional. I can’t remember ever meeting (in a hotel) such a friendly and happy group.

It was an absolute delight staying at Villiera's lodge. Our room was perfect with a lovely balcony offering sea views. Perfectly located in De Kelders, Villiera gave us great recommendations for restaurants and activities, and breakfast was delicious and plentiful. If visiting the Gansbaai area, I highly recommend staying at The Bay Lodge.
