The view from the breakfast room is unbeatable. The hosts, Gideon and Gill, attend to every need and are passionately dedicated to ensuring their guests have the very best time. Gideon provided me with so many tips about interesting things to do locally and further afield in the Western Cape. The breakfast was divine and food orders very flexible with a large choice of options. The lodge’s employed staff were amazing. Cliff Lodge a great place to relax, unwind, find inner peace and appreciate the vastness of the sea.

Bettys Bay is a charming little coastal town.

Bettys Bay is a charming little coastal town. I think its perfect for tourists and locals if you are looking for a laid back breakaway. Its quite easy to get around and find different places of interest. We enjoyed visiting the Stony Point Penguin Colony. We spotted quite a number of birds. There are lovely trails for short hikes on the mountainside. The beach is wonderful with white soft sand. The water is quite cold though.

A mini Spar or OK with a bakery and some quick meals would be ideal and very convenient. The residential area is fairly large yet quiet and the perfect spot for whale watching. The cliff path is scenic and well built.

It is a very peaceful village with a lovely beach.

It is a very peaceful village with a lovely beach. I was there off season which was perfect as coming in summer must be hectic. Met very helpful people from the pharmacy, the small supermarket and the laundry lady. Excellent restaurant - The Cork Eatery! Very nice owner and very good food. Enjoyed a lovely meal. Beach is beautiful but I may have gone to the wrong entrance as a bit of a trek to the sea but well worth it. Big plus - pet friendly area.

As noted the area was quiet loved that we could walk and every one on that drove past us waved, etc. The accommodation was great. I love the bath. I am not sure if something can be done with us hearing each other as we are very close to each other. Walls does separate I think are too thin, it is like you hear when someone is in the bathroom or room. In the lounge area it is not so.
