Pure Sea was worth the drive from Cape Town. The property is beautiful and the staff is so friendly. I stayed here because I wanted to relax and watch the whales and that's exactly what I did. My only regret is that I couldn't stay longer. I highly recommend staying here.

We had an international wine and food society event over the weekend so visited all the wineries in the area as well as Stanford. Gansbaai was in the middle, so to speak, so very convenient for trips.

Gansbaai was a comfortable city with spectacular views where our family explored the southern coast of South Africa. We discovered hidden beaches, spotted many beautiful Protea flowers, sunbathed on Pearly Beach, went to the fish market in the harbor at Gansbaai, lunched on butter chicken and fish and chips at the Blue Goose, restaurant on Hoop St, hiked Klipgat Caves at the Walker Bay Nature Reserve, glimpsed a pod of orcas, and a mother Southern Right whale and her calf, spotted three of the Marine Big 5, dined at the White House, saw Danger Point lighthouse along a four wheel drive track along the beach, found crazy amounts of beautiful shells on the beach. It was an epic adventure.

Helen is definitely the best host ever. She made us feel at home, with her kindness and her attention for every details. The room was nice and tidy, the bathroom perfectly clean and Helen cuddled us with a serie of lovely attentions. We had all the lower level for us and we felt as we were at home. The house is amazing, very clean and it is in one of the best neighbourhood in Gansbaai; the view of the ocean is superbe and if you're lucky enough you can see whales too from the window. The breakfast was lovely and we really enjoy it.
