“Hi, thank you very much for the beautiful room and privacy your lodge offers.” - Clint from Robertson
“We were, unfortunately, a late arrival / check in but we were pleasantly welcomed and accommodated. Very friendly staff and I was SO surprised with the value for money received! Location is great, walking distance of shops, shore and galore! The unit was clean, crisp and fresh with everything you need. Great for a business/ budget stay.” - Dee H from Hermanus
“We only stayed in Gansbaai Town Lodge one night but it was a very pleasant stop. The apartment has everything you need and the bed was so comfortable I could say it was the best bed I've ever slept on! (including my own one). Although we arrived late in the evening, Francois welcomed us with a smile and a promise to book us on a boat trip the following day. Thank you Francois for everything!” - Kasia from Glasgow, United Kingdom
