Location location location. We stayed upstairs and the view from the balcony is dreamlike. Even though there is a busy road behind the house, the beautiful sound of the ocean envelopes the senses. The attention to detail is a great asset to this wonderful guesthouse. This was a big highlight on our trip to South Africa. I look forward to... More

Be very careful when booking this accommodation as we have just encountered a very bad experience.We stayed there for several days in 2012 and 2013 and made a booking for 2014. It is an idyllic spot showed by our returns.We made a booking request direct with the owner Rita but got no reply.Thinking her email address was no longer in... More

Travel Exclusively African organised our 5 week self drive tour of the Western Cape and our stay at Haus Am Strand in Wilderness for 3 nights was a perfect example of the quality of accommodation.

On my recent stay at Haus am Strand I was surprised to see that it really is located on the beach! From our room it was 20 steps - and yes we counted, and we were on the sand. The rooms are tastefully decorated with a few cosy touches. Besides the beds that were comfortable, clean and offered a view... More

We were even tempted to extend our holiday! The name is very apt - the lawn literally flows onto the magnificent Wilderness beach and you fall asleep to the sound of the waves washing up onto the sand. The rooms are beautifully and tastefully decorated and leave you feeling refreshed and inspired. Rita and Joe treated us like their own... More

Our planning was to stay 1 night in this guesthouse, but we even came back for another 2 nights. The rooms are very nice, all recently refurbished and very clean. But the best thing is that 'Haus am Strand' is really as close to the beach as the name suggests. From your bed you look straight out over the sea... More
