attention to detail, personal service to all my guest from booking excursions and welcoming guests on arrival. Each and everyone is important, it's because of you that Whale Rock House is so popular.
I love travelling, gathering ideas & interior design.
800m away from Robberg Nature Reserve & Solar Beach with beautiful view over Robberg Nature reserve. The Plettenberg Bay airport is a 5min drive away. It is a quiet neighbourhood.
