UNOBSTRUCTED VIEWS

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 solar-heated 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.

THE COUPLE BEHIND THE WHALE HUYS MAGIC

Whale Huys self catering accommodation was lovingly created by Bruce and Eelco, a Dutch/American couple who – for 20 years – have been regular visitors to this part of South Africa. Bruce and Eelco purchased Whale Huys in April 2014 and applied decades worth of travel and holiday rentals experience to creating a relaxed, uncluttered and yet luxurious and homely environment. In 2018 they purchased the smaller bungalow next door (Guppy Huys) and developed it with the same eco principles in mind for guests looking for a smaller alternative to Whale Huys.
