I have been visiting Strusibaai as a Tour Guide for 6 years now and this Guest House is one of those guest Houses in the Western Cape that makes you feel like a home away from home. The hostess makes you feel special from the time you arrive. The breakfast is a fest and they have so many choices. The... More

Mermaid Guest House was one of those nice little surprises during our trip. It's nice, clean and quiet. And its close proximity to the lovely stretch of Struisbaii beach and the small shopping area puts this b&b in the heart of Africa's southernmost tip. The rooms are nice and tidy, and the breakfast offers a wide choice. Cape Agulhas itself... More

Very friendly and helpful hostess, rooms very nice and clean, although a little on the small side. Free wifi! Breakfast was excellent! Hostess recommended Pelican Cafe for lunch and a place just on the other side of the main road for dinner. Both were very nice and the Pelican Cafe was so inexpensive and in a lovely spot by the...

We stayed here one night and wish we could have stayed longer. The guest house is ideal - very clean and well appointed. Decent internet connection and the owners are friendly and always willing to help. The "Bistro on Main" was a great little restaurant within walking distance, and the Pelican cafe at the harbour is a great place for... More

Stayed here for a few nights and stayed in three different rooms, all were nicely appointed and carry the nautical theme through well, nothing flashy or expensive but show an attention to detail. The whole place has a clean and fresh feel to it, and all the staff were eager to help with a "nothing is too much trouble" approach.... More

We stopped over at Struisbaai in the Mermaid Guesthouse. Though for us it seemed as if in winter there wasn't too much to do in this region we really enjoyed our stay there. The staff welcomed us warmly and showed us our simple yet very nice room. Later we were recommended a nice place to eat and activities for the... More

We stayed here for 2 nights right after our arrival in South Africa. The Mermaid Guesthouse is located close to the village center and to the beach (5min walk). The people at this place were very friendly to us, the breakfast amazing and all rooms come with a sea view. We had a very nice stay and enjoyed the peacefulness... More
