“Cosy, clean and comfortable! Loved the indoor braai. Spacious and close to the sea. Love that nature’s beauty surrounds you and walking distance from the sea.”

“Locatie ws geweldig, huis was wel heel erg heet. Geen airco. Maar na goed te hebben geventileerd was het beter. De privacy van het huis was geweldig, omringd door bomen en volledig afgeschermd.”

The architectural style of this property is unlike any other in the area and is more akin to American lodges than the typical buildings you find in the area. Open trusses expand 7m above the lounge area. The house is generous with space with a large master suite and loft. The house was built in a way to hero the Milkwood trees on the property which are a protected species. You can hear the waves and amazing birdlife.
Hi, I am Martin and I have been hosting since December 2023. I really love hosting and love getting feedback from guests and meeting so many fantastic people who come to make great memories. I am always available for any issue that arises and yes sometimes they do, we are not perfect yet. In my working career I design digital security software for a Dutch company. If you have requests not listed on the property let me know and we could sort something out.
Kleinbaai is one of the prime destinations for shark cage diving globally. The harbour where the bots launch is about 600m from the house. That is not all that is great here though, the area is famous for whale watching and there are boat tours to view them more closely. You could also view Dyer Island which is a conservation area. The town is small and quaint with many beautiful properties and a great golf course. There is a 4x4 trail and many other fun activities for the whole family. Kleinbaai sports 2 classy restaurants, the Great White House form where boats train those brave enough to venture the ocean, for landlubbers they can also get their kick from diving with Crocs at the other restaurant, Afrikanos.
