    I requested a reservation for 3 rooms for my clients for 1 night on 24 December 2021. Subsequently the owner Johan emailed me back with a long explanation as to why they were reluctant to book only 1 night during their peak season. I understood his reasoning; however, he agreed to give me the 3 rooms for my clients regardless. After I had taken the money from my clients and emailed him the names to confirm, I called his wife Madelein to ask if she received my email. She told me that this was a ridiculous booking and that she could not believe her husband agreed to it. Like they were doing me and my clients a favour. When I asked for confirmation in order to pay, they retracted the reservation. Clearly they do not need the money. It is the most shocking service I have received in my 9 years in the travel industry. I had to go back to the clients to advise them of the above. If I could rate them a zero I would.

    Die Waenhuis is a unique and special place to stay. It is filled with details of a bygone era and one should take the time to look at each and every piece of furniture to really appreciate what you have on display. We stayed in the "Skotskar room" and were basically blown away. It is a huge room with two beds, a sitting area and a beautiful bathroom but you have to see it to believe it. The owners are very friendly and will gladly chat with you while you enjoy the home made, freshly baked bread, delicious fruits and other tasty items on the menu. My only regret is not having more time there to investigate all the detail!

    I can highly recommend Die Waehuis Guest House. I have been staying there for business and pleasure for more than 20 years. Madelein serves the best breakfast you will ever get at a guest house. I am sure you will also enjoy your stay.

    Lovely old house. Our room was just off the dining room and quite noisy.

    What a beautiful guest house with so much character, perfect vintage interior and the friendliest owners and staff members. Every stay includes a very delicious breakfast with a wide variety of fresh fruits, excellent coffee, traditional breakfast, fresh bread, cheese and cereal all prepared by the owner herself.

👍 Have been to a couple of restaurants in Mossel Bay and Delfinos is definitely amongst the top in quality of food. Also has an amazing view as they are on the beachfront.

Seafood restaurant
👍👍 I enjoyed my time and food at 34 Degrees South. If you sit outside, you get treated to awesome views too of what can be described like Venice. Towards the latter part of the day, you'll see a gorgeous South African sunset (if there are no clouds). I had some wine by the glass, one of the few places...
