A well-known landmark on Beach Road, Berg en Zee is situated centrally in Gordon’s Bay, just a few steps from the beach. Whether you would like to soak up the sun on well-known Bikini Beach, take a boat trip from the harbour or enjoy a meal in one of the many beachfront restaurants – you’ll find it all just a few minutes walk away. 

The eight guest rooms all have unparalleled views stretching across False Bay towards Table Mountain and Devil’s Peak are in great demand among visitors to Gordon’s Bay. You can also enjoy the vista of the Hottentots Holland mountain range.

The centre of Cape Town is approximately 50km to the West, whilst Hermanus, the famous whale-watching capital, is 80km to the East. All of the world-renowned wine estates are on our doorstep – between 15 to 60 minutes drive. For golfers, the variety of courses is unequalled with Erinvale, Arabella, Parel Valley, Stellenbosch, Somerset West and Strand close by.

Make yourself at home and take time to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Whether your visit is for relaxation, adventure, or business, we hope your stay with us is truly special.

Wir waren nun zum dritten Mal in dieser Unterkunft. Seit dem 01.12.2025 gibt es neue Besitzer. Da beide Penthouse-Apartments frei waren, haben wir als Upgrade das größere mit der geräumigeren Terrasse erhalten. Es gibt einige positive Neuerungen, wie einen größeren Fernseher mit Netflix und eine Nespresso-Maschine. Das Frühstück sowie das Personal sind ausgezeichnet. Es ist zu erwarten, dass die neuen Besitzer die Unterkunft weiterhin aufwerten werden. Viel Erfolg dafür 🍀

One of the better guest houses from the top 3 in the area. Half of the staff are British. Not 100, but makes a difference. Nice room and a complimentary wine. Thank you, for our stay

Die Lage ist super. Es fehlten aber kleinen Aufmerksamkeiten, die man in Südafrika kennt. Das Frühstück war durchschnittlich.
