Wunderschönes stylisches Guesthouse mit sehr netten Gastgebern. Tolles frisch zubereitetes Frühstück und sehr saubere und toll eingerichtete Zimmer. Wir kommen wieder und hoffen dann auf das gemeinsame Dinner.

Benguela turned out to be a lovely B&B, with a comfortable large room overlooking the ocean. It's high on a hill in a suburban part of town (Gansbaai and de Kelders), so very quiet and relaxing. Jonathan, who runs the place, is a fantastic host, not just charming and helpful, but an outstanding cook. He provides a whole dinner party each night (by prior arrangement) and serves a five course meal which is simply outstanding (and very very good value. Gansbaai itself has a surprising number of excellent restaurants, and there are many more outstanding restaurants nearby in the town of Stanford. We had a great stay (early January 2024) and will always remember it.

What an amazing find. We spent 3 nights here. Such a lovely place. Jonathan was so nice as were his staff. Breakfast was delicious and all very fresh food. Very clean. Such a lovely home. The area is beautiful. Perfect if you like walking. We will definitely be back.

A very pleasant house with a lovely host in Jonathan. Beautiful breakfast to set you up for the day and a lovely room which was spacious and a very nice bathroom, even though it takes an age for the water to heat up. The bedroom has curtains but no nets, so you have to draw the curtains for privacy which blocks out the light and the lovely views, and people do walk past. There is no tv which didn’t bother us, but for those who do it might be an issue. If there is no evening meal you have to cab/drive into town, I recommend the “Blue Goose”. There is a walkable pub but it’s fairly basic. Lots of lovely walls and the area is beautiful and safe.

Jonathan is an absolute gent and prepared us some marvellous food. The rooms were absolutely stunning with carefully selected artwork by Jonathan. We stayed in the upgraded room which we can highly recommend. You can see the whales in the bay from the room window !

Clean, fun and classy! Loved our stay and Jonathan has perfected the balance of being very attentive yet giving guests space to enjoy themselves privately:) FYI - the sweet station at the door is to die for!

We had a lovely sea facing room abd actually saw a whale. Jonathon our host was absolutely superb making us feel quite at home. He also presented us with a delicious breakfast. The decor is also amazing.. The property did show some signs of damage from the recent devastating floods. We will definitely be back.
