"A Peaceful West Coast Retreat with Heartwarming Hospitality"

10.0

We had the most amazing stay at Draaihoek Lodge. From the moment we arrived, we were wrapped in warm "Weskus" hospitality that made us feel instantly at home. The staff were friendly, thoughtful, and genuinely welcoming - nothing was too much trouble. The food was absolutely outstanding - every meal felt lovingly prepared and beautifully presented, a real treat for the senses. We also appreciated the roaring log fires in the evenings, adding that perfect touch of cosiness to the crisp coastal air. The private beach walks were soul-refreshing, with endless stretches of sand and the soothing sound of waves as our only company. The lodge and surrounds are impeccably clean, tranquil, and breathtakingly beautiful. It’s the kind of place where time slows down and serenity takes over. Draaihoek Lodge is a slice of coastal heaven. We left feeling completely recharged, and we can’t wait to return. Highly recommended to anyone seeking peace, natural beauty, and warm-hearted service.

Beautiful location, peaceful and quiet. There is a beautiful pool and private access to the beach.

These is nothing we did not like. Was the perfect short stay.

"magnificent and exceptional"

10.0

A peaceful and wild escape near the Atlantic I had a wonderful stay at Draaihoek Lodge & Restaurant. The staff were incredibly kind, professional, and welcoming. The chef is truly talented — dinner and breakfast were both excellent, with impeccable service throughout. My room was very spacious, perfectly comfortable, and set in a peaceful natural environment. The lodge is nestled just behind the dunes — you can’t see the ocean from the rooms, but a short walk through the dunes (where you might spot springboks!) brings you to a stunning viewpoint over the Atlantic. From there, I saw dolphins, seabirds, and even whales. The beach itself is wild, full of charm and birdlife. This is a hidden gem, ideal for a quiet getaway or a family retreat when the weather gets warmer. Highly recommended!
