    Very comfortable room.. In a quiet attractive area of Gansbaii, right on the seafront with lovely view - an ideal location if you are there in the whale-watching season. Helen is a charming hostess who went out of her way to make us feel at home and rang two restaurants to make bookings for us. The included breakfast for us was perfect (with beautifully presented fruit salad) but if you wanted ‘the full English’ then maybe you would have to ask in advance.

    Great location right at the Ocean front. Family Room booked by me was very cosy, neat & clean and very comfortable. Villieria…our host & owner of the property is a great host & she took good care of us. She even guided us with suggestions for local tours & restaurants. Breakfast provided was of exceptional quality. We stayed in the property for two nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

    Beautiful B&B with amazing views over Walkers Bay. Linda was a great host and a very good whale spotter from the terrace. De Kelders is a great location for exploring the whale coast if you have a car. Bad weather stopped us from going out to sea as we planned but we still found plenty to do
