Spacious room with an incredible view! The staff recommended Coffee on the Rocks and we spent the morning watching whales breach! Thank you so much!
Ein ganzes Haus für uns. Wahnsinnig schön. Tolles frisches Frühstücksbuffett Super Lage für Haifischtaucher Ausflüge

Хороший гестхаус, очень приветливый хозяин и персонал. Чистый номер, шикарный вид из окна :)
Easy communication with the host. Good breakfast and heating blankets and a very nice bathroom with a double shower.
De rust, ruimte en luxe van de kamer is geweldig. Ontbijt heerlijk en veelzijdig. En de plek dichtbij zee. Het uitzicht is adembenemend 🤩
Alles beviel, we komen zeker terug.
wir hatten das größere Zimmer mit viel Fensterfront und einem zusätzlichen Bett. Das war wirklich sehr schön und komfortabel. Auch Balkon und Aussicht sind positiv hervorzuheben. Man wurde auch besonders zuvorkommend behandelt und jeder Wunsch wurde erfüllt.
Spacious apartment located just a minute from the harbour with all the amenities. Nicola as a host was super responsive and made sure we had a memorable trip. She helped us book the shark cage diving tour as well with the best in business i.e. Marine Dynamics. Very quite, peaceful and safe neighborhood.
Beautiful property! Modern - beautiful decor. Wonderful breakfast
Massive room and bedroom with a couples shower. Lounge next the bedroom with beautiful view. Very good breakfast included. Very friendly staff and owner.
Отличное место для остановки, если вы планируете погружение с акулами или различные водные экскурсии. Очень хороший завтрак. Большие , чистые и уютные комнаты, очень удобная кровать. Напротив ресторан и небольшой магазин.
Все было отлично
Lovely rooms, balcony with a wonderful sea view, really comfortable bed, great bathroom with double shower
It was a little chilli
Wat een geweldige plek om te verblijven! We hebben 3 nachten geslapen in White Shark Guesthouse en dit heeft al onze verwachtingen overtroffen. Het ligt op 2 minuten lopen van het haventje waar alle cage diving operators zitten. Aanrader om een cage dive te doen! Ook is het een uitstekende plek om Hermanus te bezoeken, en bijv. te wandelen in de Walker Bay Nature Reserve. De hosts Nicola en haar man zijn echt geweldig, we hebben nog nooit zo'n goede service gehad. Ze gaven allerlei tips voor activiteiten, stippelden zelfs onze wandeling uit en hebben de boeking voor de cagedive volledig verzorgd. Super hartelijke mensen voor wie geen vraag te gek was. Zelfs nadat we al waren uitgecheckt en nog een cagedive hadden gedaan, boden ze aan om nog even een douche te nemen voordat we weer verder gingen met onze reis. Het ontbijt was heerlijk, en aan de overkant zit een leuk restaurant. Wij vonden het echt geweldig. Ik zou deze plek aan iedereen aanbevelen en zou er zelf graag nog een keer terugkomen!
Helemaal niks! Alles was perfect.
La casa súper amplia, hermosas habitaciones y baños. El jacuzzi no lo llegamos a usar pero se veía tentador. Todos muy amables! Nos permitieron dejar las valijas antes y retirarlas después.
Podría haber un poquito de aceite y sal para cocinar, ya que la cocina era linda y grande. La ubicación era perfecta para nosotras porque era cerca de las excursiones para ver tiburones, pero si no fuera por eso tal vez no es la mejor.
Spacious room , excellent shower , really nice breakfast and very friendly staff. Also an amazing sunrise
The room was cold and we couldn’t get the radiator to work. The location is a bit isolated .
We stayed at the cottage and it was exactly in line with the description. It is spacious and clean, very comfortable for a family and has everything needed to dine inside. Breakfast is available and is of good quality, staff is great and friendly. The hot tub is a plus. Location is excellent for the cage dive / big 5 tour as the operator is very close. The recommendations provided by Nicola were much appreciated.
Wir waren leider nur für eine Nacht in Gansbaai - ein Ort, der abseits der touristisch bekannten Highlights noch viel zu bieten hat. Toller Gastgeber, der unsere weitere Tour mit vielen wertvollen Tipps bereichert hat. Sehr schöne Unterkunft, herzlicher Empfang und sehr gutes Frühstück. Direkt gegenüber haben wir sehr gut zu Abend gegessen. Uneingeschränkt zu empfehlen!
Staff wa super helpful. Our shark cage tour was cancelled, they helped us find the other good tour. Room was clean and spacious. Location is wonderful for any tour departure. Highly reccommend.

Everything! Great location, wonderful and super caring hosts, great view and delicious breakfast. We loved staying with Nicola and Maurice. Thank you!
There was nothing to be disliked.
Wir wurden von Nicola sehr freundlich empfangen. Das Frühstück wurde frisch zubereitet und das Personal war sehr freundlich. Der Ort ist recht klein und die Auswahl an Restaurants ist sehr begrenzt. Wir haben den Aufenthalt sehr genossen und könne die Unterkunft uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.
Nichts
Emplacement idéal dans GANSBAAI, personnel au petit soin et souriant. Les chambres sont confortable. Le meilleur Guest House pour rejoindre les différents prestataires de plongée avec les requins. Très bon petit déjeuné.
Rien
Preis-Leistungsverhältnis stimmt. Das, was man für einen Kurzaufenthalt benötigt, ist da.
Der Außenbereich könnte etwas schöner sein.
Breakfasts were good and the room was large and bright.
My room had a view of the local small store and petrol station although I did try to secure a room with sea views on line before I left home.
The guest house was clean and inviting, very cosy looking communal lounge. Our bedroom and bathroom were large and had lots of storage space. Best breakfast spread I’ve seen so far on our SA trip!
Nothing really, although just to mention, there were a few stairs, but we were helped with our cases which was lovely.
Die Lage am Meer war sehr gut, Gastgeber sehr zuvorkommend und hat uns wertvolle Tipps gegeben, Frühstück bestens, gegenüber ein gutes Restaurant ind wir waren voll zufrieden
Ruime kamers en een goed ontbijt
Alles was prima
Perfect location for excursions Lovely host So helpful
The pancakes
Nothing
Large room, very comfortable lounge and breakfast room, all with a good sea view.
Location is in an area of general housing but remote from any facilities. Just one local restaurant which was very poor. Entrance up steep wooden stairs was somewhat inconvenient and unwelcoming
Staff
Gelegen in een mooi kustplaatje, een mooie guest house. We zijn hartelijk welkom geheten en de kamer zag er goed uit, ruim en schoon. Ontbijt was goed en niks was teveel gevraagd voor de mensen. We zijn hier geweest om de Marine Big Five tour te doen wat aan de overkant van het verblijf zit.
We zijn een nacht geweest dus te kort om eventuele verbetering aan te dragen. Het was helemaal prima!
Nice accommodation, very nice and helpful owners, comfortable beds, delicious breakfast. Possibility to use common areas with seating, coffee, refreshments. Terrace with a view.
Everything catered for! Honesty bar. Coffee included. Lovely bedding.
Es war ein wunderbarer Empfang, wir hatten das ganze Haus für uns. Ein perfekter Gastgeber. Wir haben uns, obwohl nur kurz dagewesen, sehr wohl gefühlt!
Alles war gut, es gibt nichts zu bemängeln!
Great hospitality and very nice to stay. Nicola and the staffs are so welcoming. The view on the ocean is so great.
Wunderschöne Zimmer, tolles Frühstück und sehr liebenswerte Gastgeber. Die Aussicht auf die Bucht ist fantastisch.
Alles wunderbar und sehr empfehlenswert!
Breakfast was great as always. All of the food on offer is enjoyable. The pancakes are very tasty. The room we always take has a spectacular view of the ocean. The location is great. Right across the road from a small filling station, shop and lovely restaurant. A short walk to the beach. As always, the hosts and staff provide excellent service.
Nothing. We like everything about the place. We have been back to the establishment so many times. I have lost count. I do not write a review after each visit, but if I did, would give the establishment 10 out of 10 every time.
Room was large and clean and had a great view of sea. We enjoyed the bed mattress and warmers. These made for an extremely comfortable sleep. The hosts are super friendly and make you feel right at home.
There ws nothiong that we did not like.
Nicola and Marius and the rest of the staff are very friendly and helpful. The abode is clean and peaceful. The breakfast is well proportioned and delicious. We enjoyed the pancakes on offer this time round.
There is nothing that was not to our liking. The property meets our expectations every time.
The room we always stay at is very comfortable and has a sea view. The property is across the road from a great restaurant, which is very convenient. The hosts and staff are very friendly and accommodating.
We like everything about the property.
La struttura è molto bella e curata. Le camere sono molto belle, ben arredate e confortevoli, anche se non molto grandi. Spazi comuni molto ampi e di qualità. Il proprietario ed il personale sono gentilissimi e sempre a disposizione. Non abbiamo fatto la colazione perché siamo usciti alle 06.am per fare Shark Cage Diving. La posizione eè perfetta per raggiungere a piedi il porto ed uscire in mare con le barche
Sehr nette u freundliche Gastgeber , sehr leckeres Frühstück mit allem was dazu gehört , sehr aufmerksamer Gastgeber u hilfsbereit , schöne Lage Meernähe ,
The breakfast was excellent. Manager and staff very friendly an make you feel at home
Vriendelijk onthaal, snelle accurate reactie op vragen.

Sehr schöne Ferienwohnung. Kann man nur weiterempfehlen!
Muy buena la pieza y el baño.
Un poco de ruido en la mañana. No problemático pero se escucha.
Super nice hosts, great tips for activities around. We did the marine big 5 tour and were able to view whales, dolphines, seals and sharks. Just amazing!
We used the hotel as a base to do a shark dive. The hotel were great setting everything up for us as a package. Had an absolutely amazing experience at the shark dive with Marine Dynamics. Thanks for making it a perfect day for us.
Nothing.
Nice place with a lovely view of the ocean. The room was really clean and serving a New York loft apartment vibe. Breakfast was amazing you get to interact with the other guests and make good breakfast jokes.
Wonderful stay at Gansbaai! Spacious and clean room, lovely house to chill on terrace and super tasty breakfast. Thanks to everyone for making our quick stay worth it and enjoyable. Highly recommend if you planning to visit the area, nothing to complain about!
Super Host, liebevolle Mitarbeiter, tolle Aussicht auf den Hafen, liebevoll Eingerichtet und tolles Frühstück
Everything was very fine and the recommendations for activities were excellent.
We hebben deze kamer geboekt om te gebruiken als uitvalsbasis om te cagediven in Gansbaai. De locatie was perfect tussen alle operatoren en meteen aan de haven. De kamer was zeer ruim, netjes en met een mooi uitzicht over de baai. Ruime, propere badkamer met dubbele douche en bad. Parkeren kon direct bij de accommodatie. Communicatie met de host verliep erg vlot. Drinkwater beschikbaar in de gemeenschappelijke ruimte.
Veel trappen om tot aan de kamers te geraken, een beetje lastig met zware koffers. Dit deed geen afbreuk voor ons maar kan lastig zijn voor minder mobiele gasten.
Tolle Gastgeber, sehr gute Lage nur wenige Meter vom Meer und den Cage Diving Agenturen entfernt

Super Lage und eine tolle, gemütliche Ausstattung. Wir haben uns rundherum wohl gefühlt. Marius hat uns mit tollen Tipps versorgt, die wir gleich angenommen und umgesetzt haben. Alle waren sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Eine super tolle Unterkunft!!!
Lovely hosts offering great service and brilliant breakfast (pancakes outstanding). Accommodation had everything you could think of with a nice relaxing vibe.
Nothing serious just a presence for softer pillows
Dieser Ort ist ein Original - tolles Ambiente! Die Gastgeber und das Personal haben Herz und man fühlt sich als Gast herzlich willkommen! Großes Zimmer. Tolle Dusche.
Alles hat uns gut gefallen :)
I would highly recommend White Sharks Guest—the perfect accommodation for solo travelers, families, or groups of friends. The rooms are spacious, with modern design, and the bathrooms (featuring both bath and shower) are exceptionally large, clean, and comfortable. The location is ideal, less than a 5‑minute walk to the beach, and there’s even a convenience shop nearby for small items or drinks. The owners, Nicole and her husband, are truly amazing hosts who pay attention to every detail of your stay. Their warmth and hospitality, along with the helpful and friendly staff, made our experience unforgettable. Thank you so much, Nicole and the team, for making our stay a WOW experience! Suggestion: installing a braai section on the top/ last floor area - should one wish to use the top area for entertainment vs using the cottage section downstairs
Good Coffee station in the lounge. Short way to Shark diving facilities. Good breakfast. Very clean room. Large bathroom. Safe environment. Netflix on TV.
Breakfast time starts 8.30 which is quite late. No problem for us because we had boat tour after breakfast but in other cases we would have started into day already.
Äusserst nette Gastgeber, unkompliziertes Check-In, viele Tipps (Romans Beach, Restaurants) und Dienstleistungen (Reservationen usw.), tolle Beratung, feines, reichhaltiges Frühstück, Getränke, Kaffee und Rusks (südafrikanisches trockenes Gebäck) gratis, tolle Lounge
Super helpful and friendly hosts, as well as a fully equipped apartment with a very comfortable bed, warm lighting, and a lovely view of the ocean. The dual shower was a fun highlight.

Den familiären und sehr aufmerksamen Umgang der Betreiberfamilie mit den Gästen
Wir hatten ein wunderschönes Haus mit Kücjhe und Wohnzimmer sowie 2 Schlafzimmer mit jeweils eignem Bad und Fernseher. Sehr nette s und äußerst hilfsbereitem Personal. Sehr umfangreiches und gutes Frühstück. nur ca 200 m zum Strand, von welchem Boote zur Walbeobachtung abfuhren
Es r hat es auf dem Weg kurz vor Gansbaii gebrannt.- Als Auswirkung gab es zeitweise keinen Strom- mur der Generator wurde teilweise eingeschaltet.
Great stay, fantastic hosts, comfortable night sleep and the hosts were fantastic. Highly recommend to anyone travelling to Gansbaai
Nothing, it was great
Die Gastgeber waren einfach spitze wenn es um Tourbuchungen ging oder Tipps mit der ganzen Familie. Wir haben jeden Morgen einen Zettel mit Ausflugtipps erhalten. Wirklich super! Es liegt direkt gegenüber vom Marine Dynamics, bei denen wir das Haitauchen gebucht haben. Da wir das Cottage gebucht hatten, konnten wir sogar den Hot Tube nutzen. Frühstück wird auch angeboten. Wir kommen gern wieder.
