We invite you to experience the relaxed atmosphere at Marebella, where Mediterranean living meets South African hospitality. Stay in spacious luxury guest rooms on the seafront, overlooking the cliffs of De Kelders. Our rooms have 180-degree uninterrupted panoramic views of Walker Bay. Experience whale watching from your room and private terrace from June to November. De Kelders is quiet and peaceful - a nature lover's dream. Attention to design detail results in the successful blending of Mediterranean and Art Deco styles.
Our passion for light and space means few doors, wide archways and open-plan living. Designed to make the most of the sea views, floor-to-ceiling windows line the front of the house. The sundeck looks over the ocean and the Hermanus mountains.
Feel like Robinson Crusoe on the stretch of endless unspoilt sandy beach called Die Plaat. Gerhard will take you swimming in the natural rock pools and walking along the cliff path to explore the caves of De Kelders.
For the adventurous there is great white shark cage diving at Shark Alley, off the coast from Gansbaai; horse riding on the beach, scuba diving, 4x4 trips into the surrounding mountains and more.
Enjoy a glass of wine from our cellar and watch spectacular sunsets over to the Cape of Good Hope. Marebella is 30 minutes on the R43 from Hermanus, on the route to LAgulhas and 3 km from the fishing village of Gansbaai.

"We enjoyed our stay at Marebella very much. The room was beautiful with a stunning sea view. Shalene and Gerhard are wonderful hosts who took care for our amazing stay with whale watching and a delicious dinner at Kloeks@Home. Unfortunately we only spent one night there. But we definitely will come back one day to stay longer."
"Very clean, friendly, welcoming. Wonderful whale watching, and very informative and helpful hosts."
"An extraordinary place to stay. Whales just across the street and can also be observed from the terrace. The rooms are clean and serviced every day. The owners are very friendly, helpful and are keeping a personal relationship to the guests. I can highly recommend this guesthouse, even for longer stays. I stayed four nights."
"Marabella was one of the most guestfriendly Bed and Breakfast houses we´ve been to during our stay in South Africa. The people there are so friendly and the ambiance is perfect for a stay with whales in the sea."
"Our hosts were overwhelming friendly and couldn't have been more accommodating.Views and sounds of the whales from our room were beyond our expectations. We would certainly return here."
"Top of the range accommodation which we could not fault. <br/><br/>Great situation overlooking Walkers Bay. As pre advised whales guaranteed in October.<br/><br/>Owners were very welcoming and could not do enough for us with advice on restaurants, walks and local interest.<br/><br/>Made us feel very much at home such that I recommended this guest house to people we met later in our holiday.<br/><br/>Would certainly stay here again if in the area<br/>"

"Had a short but wonderful stay at Marebella. What a great location! At one time, there were no less than 17 Whales that we can watch straight from our balcony. Our hosts were friendly and very helpful, totally absorbed with our comfort and making sure that we had a good time. Will go back any time we are in the area, and we will go back."
