Authentic West Coast Charm in a Prime Location

Seagulls Guest House offers a genuine taste of West Coast lifestyle with stunning views of the Langebaan lagoon. Located just a short 10-15 minute stroll from the main beach, restaurants and shops, this self-catering establishment strikes the perfect balance between peaceful seclusion and convenient access to local attractions.

Accommodation Options

The guest house features seven distinctive self-catering units that cater to different needs:

  • Cozy units for couples - Units 1, 2, 5 and 6 are perfect for romantic getaways
  • Family units - Units 3, 4 and 7 offer multiple bedrooms ideal for families or small groups
  • Luxury upstairs unit - Unit 7 boasts spectacular lagoon views, two bedrooms, a spa bath, and an enclosed patio with indoor braai

All units come fully equipped for self-catering with private braai facilities - a must for authentic South African holiday vibes. The swimming pool area overlooking the lagoon is perfect for those scorching West Coast summer days when you don't feel like heading to the beach.

Local Insights & Practical Tips

The West Coast is known for its distinctive regional character, and Seagulls embraces this with open arms. Visitors should time their stay around these local highlights:

  • Lagoon Festival in March - a vibrant celebration of local culture and water sports
  • Water activities - Langebaan is world-renowned for kite surfing and wind surfing conditions
  • Winter stays - Units with fireplaces (like Unit 4) make for cozy winter retreats when the Cape gets chilly

Free WiFi is available throughout, and some units feature smart TVs with OpenView. For those not wanting to self-cater every meal, breakfast options are available at an additional cost and can be enjoyed on the deck with lagoon views.

Best Time to Visit

Langebaan's climate is typically warm and dry, making it an excellent year-round destination. Summer weekends (December-February) get extremely busy, so booking well in advance is essential. Spring (September-November) offers milder temperatures and spectacular wildflower displays in the surrounding areas, making it an ideal time to visit.

Winter months (June-August) are quieter but still offer magnificent clear days - perfect for enjoying the indoor braai facilities while watching the stormy lagoon from your window. For keen kitesurfers, the windiest months from November to March offer optimal conditions.

When you're in Langebaan, remember the local saying: "You come as a guest, you leave as a friend" - embodying the warm hospitality of this charming West Coast town.
