Entire House / Apartment Whale Huys Luxury Oceanfront Eco Villa (Gansbaai, South Africa)

About Whale Huys Luxury Oceanfront Eco Villa

Whale Huys Luxury Eco Villa is a beautiful self-catering villa with unobstructed ocean views over Walker Bay, stretching from the quiet fisherman’s village of Gansbaai to Hermanus and beyond. Fall asleep and wake to the sound of the waves gently lapping at the rocks below, while a myriad of bird species enjoy the bounty of the surrounding natural fynbos plant life. Nestled in nature and with four well-appointed bedrooms (all ensuite), Whale Huys Eco Villa is the perfect holiday accommodation choice for large families, groups of friends or even couples looking for a private getaway. Located less than two hours from Cape Town International Airport, Whale Huys Eco Villa is well positioned as a weekend escape from Cape Town or Johannesburg. With Cape Agulhas, the southern-most tip of Africa, lying just 85km to the southeast, you’ll find Whale Huys the perfect spot to start your garden route tour. The villa is built directly on the Whale Coast in the De Kelders (Overberg region, Western Cape), affording visitors some of the best land-based whale watching in the world directly from the numerous balconies and ecowood deck during the months of June to November! Also during the rest of the year, dolphins, seals, dassies (rock hyrax), mongooses, tortoises and dozens of species of birds provide a delightful and intimate experience with nature. Whale Huys combines the warmth and character of traditional thatched roof architecture with the luxury of a modern holiday villa. It boasts conveniences like DSTV Premium satellite TV, high-speed fibre Internet and a laptop, which you can use to check your email, stay in touch with loved ones or surf the web. Each bedroom of this stunning Whale Coast self-catering accommodation opens out onto its own sea front balcony, affording visitors breath-taking views of our gorgeous coastline. The uninterrupted panoramic views of Walker Bay and the surrounding mountain range extend up to Hangklip and even the Cape of Good Hope on a clear day. Next to the infinity pool, a private path winds its way through the fynbos vegetation that is indigenous to the Western Cape, taking you to the water’s edge, or to a walking trail that extends for more than 15 kilometres from the Gansbaai to the pristine beaches of the Walker Bay Nature Conservancy near Hermanus. Other amenities include a private gym, pool-side bar, outdoor braai lounge, ecowood deck, large dining room (leading from the gourmet kitchen) and comfortable lounge area (with slow-combustion fireplace and DStv Premium).
