This B&B you must visit for more the one reason. The stunning view over the Ocean, only 100 meters away. Go for a walk on the beach or take a dip into the swimming pool, located in a way that you can enjoy the nice ocean view. The sound of the sea gives you the right atmosphere to fall asleep.... More

Nestled in the midst of Dana Bay at the end of a winding street. Hard to find but definitely worth the drive. Got the smaller room at a very good rate - can't see why anyone would want to upgrade. More

We (my husband, my son and I) stayed at Classical View for one night on the way to Cape Town. Our hosts went out of our way to ensure we were placed in adjoining rooms as they had no large rooms available. The rooms are very well appointed and the view is fantastic. The bed was large and comfortable with... More

Superb B&B. Hosts are very helpful & knowledgeable about area.No restaurants nearbye but hosts can order a minicab - very cheap - to an excellent seafood restaurant. Wonderful views from the rooms & poolside but a car is needed to go anywhere. Birds & wildlife come right up to the house. Breakfasts are excellent. Highly recommended. More

This place may be a little out of the way (make sure you have printed out the directions, then it's fine), but that's what makes it special. On entering the house, you literally look straight through the lounge glass doors to their stunning classical view. From our bedroom we could see fynbos covered cliffs and the ocean, that was all....

The view from our bedroom was amazing and breathtaking. We spent 2 nights at Classical View and enjoyed every minute. My husband and I were so pleased that we had decided to stay in Dana Bay rather than the centre of Mossel Bay which is busier and more built up. The house is perched on a hill therefore the walk...

We spent two nights at ClassicalView on our honeymoon, and although the owners were away on vacation at the time, a couple running the guest house for them did a very good job to help us feel welcome. We had a nice room with sea view and the breakfast was great! The place is just over 10 minutes drive away... More

ClassicalView is perched on a bluff in a lovely, quiet neighborhood just a few minutes drive from Mossel Bay. It was so peaceful and quiet. Sitting on the veranda, the ocean breeze just washed away every hint of stress. The ocean views are fantastic from every room, and the breakfasts are fabulous. Gottfried is truly a gifted chef. Both Andrea... More

It's difficult to fault this guesthouse, the layout was very stylish and the rooms and balcony had a lovely view of the sea. We weren't expecting the area to be quite so hilly, the guesthouse is at the bottom of an extremely steep driveway and the entire area is more of the same. It wasn't ever a problem but on... More
