    The unit was well provisioned, clean, and comfortable (especially the beds). The views were fantastic, overlooking Walker Bay towards Hermanus. We didn't need for anything, a lovely stay!

    Properly equipped cozy home with the best best view. Our hope was to see a whale, but we got much more than that, we've seen so many whales, I lost count!

    The appartment has all things you need for a stay. It has a great look over the bay and you can actually see the whales jumping from the terrace. Communication was clear and concise and all was ok. The place is a little "older" but that's really...

Sunset View is a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment situated on the sea in the Walker Bay area of the Overberg, Beautiful sea views. Perfect for land based Whale watching in season.
Dave is a pilot, based in Dubai, and Wendy is a teacher, teaching in Hermanus, Western Cape. Sunset View is our holiday away from home. We love the peace and tranquility it offers after busy working schedules.
De Kelders is a suburb of the fishing village of Gansbaai. It is an up market area used largely by holiday makers. A popular area during the infamous whale season of Hermanus. We like to think it is the whales preferred spot! Gansbaai boasts the best shark cage diving in South Africa and is a popular extreme adventure.
