Unbelievable, picture perfect with ten star service and food.
Excellent amazing experience. Beautiful guest house with the host who makes your stay extremely special. Rooms beautifully furnished with incredible sea view from pool. Air conditioning and a bar fridge complement a bathroom with a lovely walk-in shower. Breakfast is an experience full of surprises every morning. Definitely five star breakfast to complement five star accommodation. A place to rest, enjoy the beautiful view in a room that meets all your needs. If you stay here, you want to be in the guest house all day to enjoy the incredible experience every moment. This is not just a quick stopover. Stay here for at least 3 nights, preferably 4-7 nights. WiFi in most rooms is excellent at 50-100 Mbps so you can stream anything from your own DSTV, Netflix and YouTube account. Our children's room and the couch area's WiFi was not as good as in our own room. We will definitely return again and stay at least 5 nights next time.

Thank you!
Jonathan's hospitality is genuine. I was even surprised with a delicious chocolate cake during breakfast, because it was my birthday! Housekeeping and service are excellent.

There is nothing to do, have to drive somewhere if you want to see or do something.
Many luxury things in the B&B that are not used at all.

Very comfortable, very neat and amazing food.
The owner made our stay really special. They upgraded us to a better room at no charge. Jonathan really goes out of his way to make everything as special as possible for you. Nothing too much trouble and he is always available. His food is top notch!

Big disappointment.
Such an interesting place and the owner very friendly when we got there. Small problems on the maintenance side, such as lights that don't work and a broken door knob. The lack of luggage space makes Benguela unsuitable for more than one night's stay. What was shocking is the owner's complete lack of sympathy or assistance. I fell on the entrance steps and broke my knee. It was a. g. f. three things: No lighting at the entrance, no handrail and an upper step with a "lip" where my foot got stuck. I came back from the hospital after 1 in the night. Was in so much pain that I woke up other guests, but there was no sign of the owner. We had to cancel the second day in Gansbaai (and the rest of our tour) to get to a Cape Town specialist. Not only did Benguela not offer to compensate us for the day's rates we did not use, but asked me R50 for a nougat from the fridge. Really? How petty and greedy one can be. It's now a week later and I still haven't heard a peep from Benguela. If someone was injured on my premises I would at least have picked up the phone to find out how they were doing. Not at this place. It's all about the money, honey.

A special and very unique getaway with a beautiful view.
Our time at Benguela was a lovely treat. In addition to the beautiful accommodation and the very nice guesthouse, there are extraordinary little details that made our time at Benguela very special. The rooms are beautiful with exceptional decor and excellent quality, the view is very beautiful. Wherever you turn there is a special piece of decor that makes your stay at Benguela a very special experience. The breakfast in the bed was incredibly delicious and extravagantly served. What a beautiful place with a very warm welcome.
