This is an immaculate and beautiful house in a quiet residential area. Lovely views of the ocean and within walking distance of a lovely cliff walk to caves and a spectacular beach. Gina and Otto were perfect. Friendly, helpful and very polite. They booked our shark diving trip and our restaurant on our first night. They recommended where to go... More

We stayed at Haus Giotto last year, having turned up late on spec & Gina managed to find a little room for us & squeeze us in. This year I planned ahead in the knowledge that they have far better rooms & that we would be heading this way again. We got a front facing room with shared balcony, cooking... More

Gina and Otto are fabulous hosts and we enjoyed our stay (which unfortunately was for one night only) greatly. The house is conveniently located close to the coastal cliffs in Gansbaai, with nearby access to a walking trail. The room was very nice and tidy and we had the possibility to sit outside on a terrace, breakfast was very good... More

A simply wonderful experience. The owners, Gina and Otto, were so thoughtful and welcoming; they helped us plan our whale-watching walks, lent us bird and flower books and advised us of all the best local places to visit. Gina and her friend even invited us to join them on a wonderful walk over a nearby private nature reserve, to explore... More

What a wonderful guest house in De Kelders with superb hosts. Room was beautiful. Otto went out of his way to walk me along the cliffs and made every attempt to get us into the cave, but to no avail, the water was just too high. Gina is a wealth of information and has such a lovely personality. I will... More

Lovely place, friendly people, great location. Stayed here with friends while doing the Perlemoen Trail. Otto joined us on all the hikes and shared his knowledge of all the seacaves in the area.
