We absolutely loved the spaciousness of the house, which provided plenty of room for everyone to relax and enjoy themselves. The calming atmosphere made it the perfect getaway, allowing us to unwind and feel completely at ease. The kids had an amazing time, thoroughly enjoying the open space to explore and play. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and at home, and the excellent service both during and after our stay made the experience even more special. It was truly a wonderful place to make lasting memories, and we can’t wait to return.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at the cottage that truly felt like a home away from home. Right from the moment we arrived, the owners greeted us with such warmth and kindness that we immediately felt welcomed. It’s those little touches that make all the difference! The cottage itself was exceptional—spacious, cozy, and well equipped with everything we could possibly need. The kitchen had all the amenities, making it easy for us to whip up meals together, and the living area was perfect for relaxing. What I loved most was how homely it felt. Every corner had little details that made it inviting, like comfy bedding, thoughtful decor, and even a local guide on the coffee table. It was clear that the owners put so much care into creating a space that feels both comfortable and special. I can’t recommend this place enough! If you're looking for a warm, inviting getaway with all the comforts of home, this is it. Tranquil indeed.

Very well furnished apartment with everything one would need for a very comfortable and enjoyable stay. Good quality furniture, appliances and utensils which are all well maintained. Stunning aesthetics throughout the home. Beautiful views and bonus of hot tub, pizza oven and braai area. Wonderful space to bring children too (we didn't this time but will bring our kids next time). Very safe with security and peacefulness. Loads to do in the surrounding areas as well as taking walks or run (or bike rides) around the estate. Great recommendations for places to eat at and visit in surrounding area. Hosts were very attentive giving the right amount of info as and when needed.

The cottage exceeded my expectations. As I walked in I said "my goodness it's just like it looks on the website". Everything was clean and tidy, all items that I required were available in the kitchen. The shower was a good size and completely clean. There was a good flow of water, shampoo and soap were supplied and there were plenty of towels There were plenty of plugs points for my computer and cheese biscuits were provided along with 2 bottles of water. Sandi, the owner and my hostess ensured that I was happy with everything on my arrival. All in all, it was the best apartment of its sort in which I have ever stayed and the quality of the room exceeded that of the rooms which I have occupied in many guesthouses. I look forward to my next visit to Gordons Bay and will certainly hope to stay at

We had an amazing stay at The Beach House by Beach Collection while traveling for work. From the moment we arrived, the team gave us a warm welcome! We were so impressed as the house is tastefully decorated, with a woodfired hot tub, a bean-to-cup coffee machine and all the thoughtful little touches that make it feel truly special. Even in just a short stay, it was clear that this place is designed for relaxation and fun. The vibe is effortlessly elegant and I left already planning a full weekend getaway here with friends.

Erinvale Garden cottage

Deborah

United Kingdom

Everything was fabulous- such thoughtful attention to detail - lovely indoor and outdoor areas to use and beautifully decorated. The owner is onsite and very helpful. We were even able to enjoy a braai in our short stay. The kitchen is very well equipped - there’s a good shower, lots of towels and comfortable bed. It’s still chilly at the moment, so we appreciated the extra blankets and the hot bottle. Great to be able to walk on the site - hiking trails towards the mountain with great views. We also walked to Vergelegen which is good to explore. There’s even a resident eagle owl! This is a lovely location we’d love to return to.
