Detailed Reviews
The owner and her assistant were friendly and welcoming. Located in a quiet street close to the ocean. Owner pays attention to the smallest details which makes a big difference. Clean and well appointed apartment.

I visited with my elderly mother. We had the Bryde suite to ourselves. It was amazing - beautifully kept, neat and clean and many personal touches to make us feel welcome and special. Cannot wait to visit again!

A treasure of old world charm and modern luxury. The attention to detail and comfort of the guests made me feel like a queen. Well situated for a peaceful in nature experience. Views over the sea and nature reserve from our unit gave us the retreat we needed.

We stayed at Whaler's point for three nights over Christmas last year. We were amazed with the wonderful service we got. On our arrival we were met with a warm welcome and a delicious cheese platter. Every morning we enjoyed a fantastic breakfast on our veranda overlooking the ocean and in the afternoons we were spoilt with snack platters that we didn't even know was included in the price. Everyone at the guesthouse were incredibly friendly and helpful. We will definitely go back!

Our stay at Whaler's Point was short but absolutely brilliant! They have taken the time to add so many extra small touches that many other establishments don't. All of these make the stay extra comfortable and special. The breakfast was also amazing! But the thing that made this experience excellent, was the attention given to us by the staff (owner Sharon and brilliant assistant, Alva.) They were friendly and helpful from the moment we parked our car right until we checked out and drove off. Thanks for making our short stay really, really special!!

First of all I got a free upgrade to a better free room (apartment). The Villa is on the edge of the little city of Kleinmond. It is near the ocean and a perfect spot to enjoy the calmness of nature. The owner has a look for details in their rooms. The apartment was in a older romantic the style. From little to big there is everything in a perfect condition. It was one of the best experiences in my traveling time. From dishwasher, washing machine to a lot of different drinks in a refrigerator. From nice smelling soap to a awesome breakfast. The staff was also very friendly and not obtrusive. I will recommend this stay if you are in that area!
You have to deal with the circumstance, that the shops and restaurants are not in walking distance. That isn't a problem unless you are a "car" person. I won't say it is a problem at all, but just want to tell this.

An amazing experience in a beautiful setting with topnotch 6 star food prepared by Sharon and her colleagues. They went out of their way to make a special occasion spectacular. Would recommend this to any couple rekindling a flame or feeding a fire alike. 😉

We were well received by Alva. The room was so beautiful. We had a stunning view over the ocean from our balcony. The decor was modern and very stylish.
We loved our breakfast the next morning. The host, Sharon, really is talented and can make even bacon and eggs look very interesting and enticing on a plate.
We will be back as we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
You will not be disappointed...this place truly is Magic!

Absolutely beautiful Whalers Point in Kleinmond the best accommodation we have stayed in. Great sea and mountain views. Friendly and efficient service and beautiful decor is a must to stay here. Cleanliness and layout of apartment is excellent. The breakfast served in the room was 5 star. Highly recommended if you looking for 5 star service and accommodation.
