Me, my mother and sister had a great time.
Fantastic view, nice fireplace for the cold days. If I could make one suggestion, it is that the TV does not pick up anything and there is no option to do your own "streaming" to the TV. So for long visits the evenings will be very long. We lacked nothing else.

Hi Erna. Hulle het pas 'n groot SmartFTP afgelaai, dus sal ons gaste nou kan stream. Hou in gedagte dat Orca, die ander eenheid, 'n volle DSTV-paket het.
Groete,

Baie dankie vir jou resensie, Marileze. Ons het onmiddelik aandag gegee aan die foute. Gaste soos jy hou ons op ons tone. Aangaande die tarief wil ek net noem dat die tarief per eenheid is wat vier persone kan slaap. Dit is dus R350 per persoon, wat billik is vir al die geriewe wat jy kry: skottelgoed was, madjie, wasmasjien, tuimeldroër en geen kragonderbrekings vir u gerief. Hoop u sal alles in ag neem en vir ons 'n beter resensie gee.

Great stay, guests should read and know that they have to drive where they want to be. Fantastic view, the weather doesn't always cooperate in the winter months, but with a fireplace, indoor braai and pool table you can't complain. It was also a great privilege that there is solar, so no load shedding and we could watch rugby and tennis. Thank you for your hospitality.

We were received very kindly by the owner. The room was very neat and clean.
The owner went to great lengths to inform us of all the attractions and restaurants. The Orca apartment was also available and she gave us a choice whether we still wanted to stay in the booked smaller apartment or whether we wanted to stay in the Orca apartment, which was bigger and had a very nice view of the sea. We paid the difference in price and stayed in the Orca apartment. The view was breathtakingly beautiful and we can recommend Whalewatchers anytime.

Daar is net 3 eenhede Orca Blue Whale en Minke Whale. Minke word nie verhuur as daar gaste in Blue Whale is nie om seker te maak dat klank nie die ander gaste hinder nie.
Op die beskrywing van die eenheid word genoem dat die eenheid op die boonste vlak is.
Daar is nie DStv beskikbaar nie net ekstra view. Die sterkte van die Wi-Fi op die spesifieke tyd in ongelukkig nie in ons hande nie.

Place was all neat and clean.
On arrival hostess after unlocking and showing place mentioned that I still have an outstanding amount. Mentioned to her it was already settled 4 days before our arrival. Think it's something she needs to clear up before asking her guests for it. There are no braai facilities as indicated. We didn't have a problem with the mobile braai being at the bottom of the stairs. But there was none at all. Hostess wanted to offer us a Weber. The "dry walls" are a total no-go. We could hear everything going on in the adjoining unit's bathroom. Refrigerator was not cleaned. Old ice still in the freezer section. In the end we had to drive in and out of town for the whole weekend to get something to eat. Had to take our meat and barbecue back home. Weekend turned out to be much more expensive than planned.

Fantastic seaside holiday.
Fantastic sea holiday as we were entertained daily by the whales blowing fountains of water and slapping their tails to make the foam splash. The dolphins didn't keep them waiting either and had a great time frolicking in the water. The seagulls came to sit on the balcony and watch us and the world. The clear sea water with clear green and blue ocean currents and the sparkling white waves that we saw from the apartment, impressed us so much that we decided to buy a plot for retirement in Agulhas. The apartment in Whale Watchers gave us the opportunity to look at the sea 24/7 from the living room or even while lying in bed. We can confidently recommend Whale Watchers to anyone who wants to experience an unforgettable time by the sea, at the southern tip of the continent.

It was okay.
The view was amazing although I think I could have found a much better place for the same price. The overall feel of the place was old and neglected. I can understand that it is by the sea, but with parents and parents-in-law who have lived in Struisbaai for 30+ years, I can't justify that everything in the bathrooms was rusted. I feel that the owners only rent out and aren;t putting any money back into the accomodation to maintain the place. The braai grills were filthy, there is no other word to describe it. The previous people's pieces of meat were still stuck in the grid. I know some people burn it off, but for me it was unacceptable. We went to buy oa very expensive braai grid. The television did not pick up the OpenView decoder at all. Fortunately, we took an HDMI cable with us to stream movies from our laptop. With that we could at least watch the news. After day two, however, we accidentally found the notice that we should not use wood in the fireplace/braai, just charcoal. It was one of my deciding factors when I saw the fireplace. It's almost winter in Struisbaai and the fireplace will be cosy. With charcoal, I don't think so. So I suggest that it be clearly indicated on the website. I will definitely not recommend Whale Watchers to anyone I know.

One big mess!
We booked with Whale watchers and got Minke Wales! A tiny unit. The place is divided into 3. Between you and your neighbors are dry walls! The stairs are extremely dangerous if you have to walk up there with luggage. Wooden stairs still under construction. Only entrance to your unit! Letter under stone says yes, at your own risk. There is a barbecue but no other facilities such as a table or chairs. No working TV! No Wi-Fi. Shower distressed little! Poor quality kitchen equipment. Microwave above your head and looks like something exploded inside! Curtain in front of kitchen window so small that you lie all night looking at the street light and traffic lights. Bitterly unpleasant experience. Little Wales we never see again! Electrical wiring was sub-standard as a bunch of wires hung down next to the fridge. Electric wall plug in the bathroom!

Whale Watchers 's response
Beste William,
Baie dankie vir die terugvoer.
Whale Watchers bestaan uit 3 eenhede. Twee is ten volle toegeruste eenhede met 2 slaapkamers en 2 badkamers. Daar is ook 'n binne- en buite braai asook 'n pragtige see-uitsig vanaf 'n dek. Hierdie eenhede is egter heelwat duurder as die eenheid wat u gekies is.
Minke Whale is 'n basiese studio eenheid wat baie goedkoper is as die ander. Vir toekomstige gebruik, sal ek voorstel om eerder een van die groter (en duurder) eenhede te bespreek.
Groete

Die verblyf is van die aard laat jy nie huistoe wil kom nie.

The accommodation is the type that you don't want to leave.
It was our first vacation on Struisbaai and we'll definitely go there again and again. Not just the accommodation, but everything is great with friendly people.
