Five star luxury at two star prices! Exceptional view and attentive hosts.

Don’t miss this one. Impeccable accommodation with every little detail attended to. And your own private deck overlooking Walker Bay! The décor is something else, with interesting antiques and rugs and intriguing books. And soothing art - even in the spacious bathroom. Special touches make the difference, such as fresh flowers, luxury linen and an invigorating shower, not to mention warm and gracious hospitality. So enjoyed my stay.

Ruim woonstel met 'n verruklike uitsig wat heeltyd verander.

Heerlik ontspan terwyl ons die Groter Gansbaai verken het. Carol en Don is aangename, konsidererende en toeganklike mense. 70m² Oopplan-woonstel met 18m² uitsigdek omring met tuinplante en voēls. Uitstekende waarde vir geld met die afslag boonop.

Thank you for your kind review, Johan. It was good to meet and be able to spend a little time with you. Also, thank you for leaving everything so clean and tidy, and for the forgotten treats in the cupboard. We hope to see you again one day. Don and Carol.

Our visit was far too short.

This is a “Whoo-hoo-hoo, what a wonderful place” review. Eirene’s Place has everything you need – a beautifully decorated apartment, a comfortable bed with bespoke linen, a luxurious bathroom, a very enticing book collection, and everything you need to prepare yourself a meal. Add to this a spectacular sea view, and you are in heaven. You know what? This is where our “Whoo-hoo-hoo” experience started. We were invited to attend a wedding at Murasie in Baardskeerdersbos and had booked (some three months ago) for a Friday and Saturday evening. Life happens, so our circumstances changed between booking our accommodation and the actual date. That Friday, we helped our son move into a flat because he was starting a new job. At the end of the Friday, we realised that we were complete ‘poegaai’, so driving to De Kelders would have just been a schlep rather than a joy. So, we called Don and Carol to tell them not to wait for us. Upon arrival on Saturday late morning, Don and Carol invited us for a light breakfast before we leave on Sunday … on the house! And there we were … sitting like millionaires on a deck where you can see forever (just like in the picture), waves crashing on the rocks, and dolphins frolicking in the waves. The breakfast? A ‘light’ breakfast? Bah! Thanks, Don and Carol for an unforgettable experience.

Thank you Izelle and Danie for those kind words, it was our pleasure to meet and host you. Don and Carol

Misrepresentation of a unit with a view.

This is not the view from the unit, it is in fact the owner's private balcony. Our view was an overgrown bush and jojo tanks. Under their private balcony.

Dit sal welkom wees as daar moontlik 'n TV met DStv moontlik 'n TV in die woonstel is indien jy wil opvang met sport as die weer nie gunstig is om buite te wees nie.

Don en Carol bied deurgaans vriendelike en effektiewe gasheerskap. Hul skep 'n rustige atmosfeer vir kosbare tydjies van samesyn en kuier. Ons het dit opreg waardeer.

Carol and Don are the best hosts I have ever had the privilege of meeting.

The apartment is spacious and luxurious. The view is beautiful, The Breakfast on the upper deck is like living in paradise and we have never felt so pampered in our lives. What a wonderful experience for our 33rd Anniversary. I would recommend choosing Eirene Place before any other when going to Gansbaai for a break. Thank you, Carol and Don!

I had a very friendly and relaxed stat at Eirene Place.

Don and Carol were very warm, kind and friendly hosts. Their accommodation was very comfortable, tidy and located within easy reach of all the major attractions in Gansbaai. I felt very welcomed and at home at Eirene Place, and this made the holiday a great deal more relaxing.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Carol and Don were the perfect hosts, not intrusive, yet very warm and hospitable. The guest room was beautifully decorated, immaculately clean and care taken to provide a warm and personal touch. The breakfast was delicious, and especially the home made bread and scones provided yet another well appreciated personal touch. Each piece of crockery and cutlery had its own story too! What a wonderful stay!

I really enjoyed my overnight stay with Don and Carol and think that they are great hosts. Everything that you'll need has been thought of and the apartment is tastefully decorated, comfortable and airy. I loved the bird life and the quiet, and really enjoyed breakfast on the deck surrounded by the bird life and glorious view.

Groot verrassing wat betref puik verblyf, ligging, ontbyt en die vriendelikste eienaars.

Die verblyf is 'n baie treffende en mooi toegeruste eenheid op die grondvloer wat alle toerusting bevat wat selfsorg baie gemaklik maak. Die pragtige oudhede is met smaak gekies en is gebruik om 'n spesiale, huislike atmosfeer te skep. Die pragtige rangskikking van inheemse blomme, tuisgebakte beskuit en verwelkomingsbriefie laat jou baie welkom en spesiaal voel. Carol se ontbyt is van hoogstaande gehalte en word met liefde voorgesit. Die stoep van die eenheid gee 'n mooi uitsig op 'n gedeelte van die baai. Ons sal die plek met graagte weer wil besoek en almal wat van 'n huislike atmosfeer hou aanbeveel om daar oor te bly!

Big surprise in terms of great accommodation, location, breakfast and the friendliest owners.

The accommodation is a very striking and nicely equipped unit on the ground floor that contains all the equipment that makes self-catering very comfortable. The beautiful antiques were chosen with taste and were used to create a special, homely atmosphere. The beautiful arrangement of native flowers, home-baked biscuits and welcome note make you feel very welcome and special. Carol's breakfast is of high quality and is served with love. The veranda of the unit gives a nice view of part of the bay. We would like to visit the place again and recommend everyone who likes a homely atmosphere to stay there!
