My wife and I stayed there in mid April, which is technically off season. We had the place to ourselves, I beleive that there are only six rooms to start with, but when you are the only ones there, it really is intimate feeling. The staff was very friendly and helpful with directions and ideas of things to do. Breakfast... More

Set on a pretty ocean road on the edge of L'agulhas, the Ocean Art House is an interesting place to stay. The staff were very helpful although there was some confusion over whether we had paid our deposit or not. Breakfast was of a good standard with nice coffee. The art works were to our taste and added some extra... More

Ocean Art House is unique in that you actually live in a gallery of very special art forms. when we booked i... More

A wonderfully designed guesthouse with amazing views from our balcony out to sea. Its great to go to sleep hearing the waves. A haven for relaxation. The shared spaces are comfortable and tasteful, the service friendly/efficient, the breakfasts tasty and the bed huge. We did struggle for space for our luggage a little but the view easily compensated for that... More

We enjoyed our three night stay at the Ocean Art House. The art work, the comfy beds, the view, the breakfast, warm welcome; altogether we had a very pleasant stay. The one thing we very much disliked was that guests were allowed to smoke on the premises and they did so too often. At times, the fresh and powerful smell... More

It's not just a place where you can sleep. Here you can feel the creativity in its best. The owner is a German artist Rudi Neuland who, with his wife, made this place special. You can wake up with the sunrise and to enjoy the sunset - all from your room windows. And btw the dinner was 3 star Michelin.

We stayed the past weekend at this venue (3 nights). What a pleasant surprise! 1. Great location. Everything reminds you of the exceptional scenery and nature around you. The sea in front of you and the rocky mountains behind you. 2. It was fascinating to stay in the house of a famous German artist with all the artwork decorating the... More

We spent two nights at the Ocean Art House and really liked the location. It is located directly at the sea and one can go for nice long walks. Since the season had not really started, there were almost no tourists around and one night we were the only guests. Nevertheless, an excellent breakfast was prepared. Maybe the staff could... More
