We enjoyed our stay so much we plan on booking here again. Kerry and her team were amazing and personable. We enjoyed our breakfast every morning visiting with them. The bottle room was the best and made things so much more convenient. We ate at the Thirsty Oyster every night. The best prawns and calamari I ever had.

Great stay in Gordon's Bay

Had a great stay at Berg en Zee, quick check-in, friendly staff and good sea views and walking distance from restaurants. We had multiple options for breakfast which was a nice change from the normal "breakfast buffet" you expect from most places. Room was clean and spacious, there was a honesty bar for late night snacking and coffee/tea station in the bedroom.

Exceptional !

We were in room 3, it was stunning! The view across False Bay was amazing and the very spacious room and balcony provided lots of comfortable seating. Breakfast was exceptionally good, fresh fruit to have with yoghurt, cooked breakfast ( including my personal favourite - pancakes), muffins and more. But above all, the staff were all very welcoming and helpful and thanks to them all for a wonderful start to our 1st visit to South Africa.

Great experience

Amazing experience. Friendly staff. Would definitely recommend Berg and Zee Guesthouse to others. We had a lovely room, the view we had was absolutely beautiful! Only thing we would have loved to have was a little microwave in the room, so that we didn't have to go downstairs to heat up some food every time. Other than that the service was GREAT and we'll be back soon!

Gute Lage, bemühtes Personal, laut

Die Lage ist ausgezeichnet, das Personal bemüht. Das Haus ist innen sehr hellhörig, insbesondere wenn z.B. die Nachbarn spät heim kommen oder der Kühlschrank aktiv ist. Auch der Straßenlärm ist nichts für empfindliche Ohren. Nette Begrüßung jeden Morgen Jackie mit kleinem Smalltalk.
