My parents lives in Kleinmond, so I’ve been there many times and know the area well. This accommodation is so well located, and the price is very reasonable. We stayed in the upper apartment, and the views are stunning. Both mountain and sea views. You can’t go wrong by booking here.

100% We loved never having to get in the car. We had 4 little children and could walk to the rock pools, the beach, the lagoon and the playground. In addition, the house has a safely fenced garden at the back with a large lawn for happy family games.

We had the pleasure of staying at "Die Rotse" for a weekend, and I wish I could have stayed there forever! The view from my bedroom window was absolutely stunning. It feels like you could just reach out and touch the sea. If the sea view did not take your breath away, the magnificent mountain view from the kitchen will most definitely do!! The host family thought of every single little luxury you could imagine to make us feel special and welcome. Thank you Werner and Lorraine for the snoek, velvet pudding, wine and hospitality and great company!! You will see us again ... Soon!

Stayed in Spykerklip. Great accommodation, location and hospitality. Neat, spacious enough, comfy, homely accommodation with all the amenities you can think of. Situated on the beachfront walkways with views of endless ocean and waves crashing against rocks. Walking distance to main beach, coffee shop and grocery store. Down to earth, accommodating and friendly hosts. Thanks for a memorable stay.

Alles wat ons gehoop het Die gastehuis is werklik alles wat ons voor gehoop het. Die eenheid was baie goed toegerus, klipgooi van die see af en loopafstand strand toe. Ons was ook beindruk met die verwekomings e-pos van die gasheer wat baie duidelik en persoonlik al die inligting bevat het wat ons nodig sou kry. Die verwelkoming was baie vriendelik en ek kan die plek sonder twyfel aanbeveel.

Ons vier van Zyls het Kleinmond en spesifiek Spykerklip ontsettend baie geniet vir die twaalf dae, alles eersteklas en gerieflik ingerig, soos gewoonlik. Ons het werklik baie lekker ontspan en goed uitgerus vir die uitdagings van die nuwe jaar (o.a. hoerskool vir Heinrich!). Selfs gedurende die tweede deel van die vakansie het die uitsig en toegang tot die rotse en poele meer as opgemaak vir die geslote strand.

We were blown away with the unspoiled nature and beautiful plant and animal life.We feasted our eyes on white beaches and turquoise seas.All our senses were enticed with soothing sounds of the waves crashing on the rocks and fresh ocean breeze.Our hosts thought of every possible need, and paid attention to every last detail(including fresh flowers in room and champagne in fridge to celebrate my 50th)

"Eight stars" Braai, watch the whales, walk on the beach, walk to the mountains, see the penguins, enjoy the hospitality of the owners Mr. and Mrs. Pauw. I did it all, except the whales as i missed them for "one second" (one month). I originally come from Slovenia, Europe and Kleinmond will definitely stay in my good memory. If Dubai is 7-star then this is 8-star to me. :) Thank you! Matej Rancigaj (Slovenia) - December 2012 This review is shown on TravelGround.com

We spent 5 days at Dierotse. Very impressed. The establishment is superbly and thoughtfully run. The host is friendly, helpful and genuinely entertaining. The flat is clean and has all the necessities provided which an international traveler would wish for in the way of internet, adaptors etc. Although we are just a couple needing only a one bedroom flat, we will be quite happy to rent the 3-bedroom again as we have really enjoyed our holiday thanks to Dierostse and its host. The host philosophy bears it out: You come as a paying guest and you leave as a friend.

The flats are modern, spacious, well equipped with everything one needs for a short or longer stay. The location is spectacular, just steps from the dramatic Kleinmond sea front and the week kept walking paths that stretch for miles from the harbor to the beach and beyond. The sounds and views of the ocean are unobstructed from the balconies, and there are dramatic view of the mountains behind Werner and Lorraine are gracious and knowledgeable hosts who are there for your every need. Their family have been in this spot for centuries, and their knowledge of the history and the natural surroundings of the area is inexhaustible. If you have the good fortune to experience a Braai with the Pauws it is sure to be memorable.
