The Beach House

The Beach House is a small, but beautifully proportioned residence which sits in an enviable location, just metres from the golden sands of Jeffrey’s Bay. Be woken in the morning with the sunlight flooding in, have breakfast on the deck watching dancing dolphins, spend the day surfing or exploring and end the day watching the sky turn scarlet in front of the fire pit. Please also see 127 da Gama if you want to rent the whole property. Please note it is a Japanese style bed and relatively hard.

127 da Gama Road, Beach Front House

The first time we walked up the stairs and saw Jeffrey's Bay stretching in front of us, our hearts sang. After ten years of dreaming and two years of planning we finally created a modern beach front house by the surf. 127 de Gamma is built with a European style but an African heart. Whilst the bedrooms are downstairs, the open plan upstairs is all about the view. 2 guests may also stay in the unattached annex at the bottom of the garden. They have a totally separate area.
