The Great White House - Gansbaai

Three star luxurious fisherman's cottages take you back in time to experience the authentic style of living... Nothing but luxurious peace and tranquillity. Cottages are built to accommodate a maximum of four persons but are normally occupied by couples. A nice fireplace and cosy thatched roof provide the necessary atmosphere for a win-win situation. To capture the essence of Gansbaai and provide themselves with enough time to engage in all the activities, guests should book at least two nights at the Great White House. The lodge is only a stone's throw away from the Kleinbaai harbour where all shark, whale and fishing boats depart from. Always buzzing with activity, this little harbour is colourful and exciting. There is also a tidal pool nearby for those brave enough to swim in the

icy Atlantic Ocean. The spacious building provides a restaurant, a stylish dining room, as well as immaculately clean toilet and shower facilities. So far, no such facilities were available anywhere near the Kleinbaai Harbour from where whale and shark viewing boats depart. The hot showers & big fireplace have already provided a "haven" for many a cold, sea-shaken body! Light meals, tea, coffee and confectionery are served in the dining room or on the terrace, 7 days a week. The Great White House specialises in super seafood, fine wine, as well as traditional dishes. Early breakfasts are a daily "happening" when tourists from all over the world prepare themselves for shark or whale watching expeditions. The briefings on what to do and to expect are done here before the boats depart. The dining-room facilities are sufficient to accommodate 60 people.
