Lovely spacious, well equipped, comfortable & quiet accommodation on the outskirts of the town. Great braai area & wi-fi. Aircon was appreciated when it was still 30deg C when we went to bed the 2nd night. Sue is a lovely, friendly hostess. We will definitely book again next time we visit Calitzdorp.

Beautiful room, really well decorated with artwork, well spaced out and nice touches. One of the best sleeps we had during our trip. Hosts were welcoming and brought us an umbrella in case we needed as was raining hard. In the morning they had left out a flask of hot water for tea and coffee because there had been a power outage. Would not stay anywhere else in the area but here again. We were not expecting it to be this good as had just booked a few hours before when realising it was getting late and we were not going to make it to next town - so glad we did.
Karoo Life B&B is situated in Calitzdorp and features a garden and swimming pool. Free WiFi is available and Calitzdorp Wine Cellar is 800 metres from the property.
Die Bakhius was great for a easy supper.
TTT wines and "the liquor that cannot be called Port" were excellent
The architecture is interesting.
The weather was exceptionally hot and you may, ideally, want to go in autumn or spring, for example, during the Port Festival

Challenged myself by walking a few miles from Calitzdorp...
Challenged myself by walking a few miles from Calitzdorp towards Oudtshoorn on the R62 ,enjoying the last of the Autumn sun.Alongside the road lot of cars past me,i didnt care about them. I was surounded by the beautiful landscape of Mountains ,karoo bossies and clear blue sky.Got a few honks from the heavy vehicles passing me by.That encouraged me even more .Made the walk pleasant experience.Few miles from my destination,i got tired and gave in.Got a lift from passing car.My phone was off.Must say pictures could not do justice for this walk. Must experience it your self. My resting place tonight is amazing .....i needed this ,after hectic working long weekend.Favorite place were the Museum.They also have bikes to hire at the Calitzdorp Tourism centre near the garage.Winetesting with the friendly staff

This little Klein Karoo town has a wonderful bygone era...
This little Klein Karoo town has a wonderful bygone era atmosphere. It's quiet, and all the amenities are closely set among the town centre, making walking around a great way to discover little hidden gems, like the Museum. There are plenty of wine tasting options too, some further away that would need the use of a car.
Restaurant options are limited, which is disappointing.
I also felt quite safe walking around, which was a great bonus!
Go, you'll enjoy it, and two nights is enough!

No fine dining but great for wine tasting.
No fine dining but great for wine tasting.
We sampled The Kranz under their grape vines, The Calitzdorp Cellar (stunning terrace view), Boplass. Lastly driving down a safe gravel road so typical of being off the beaten track and stopping at Du Swa Roo where we enjoyed informal fun tasting wines with the delightful and knowledgable Riana, sampling wine and tapas.
We hope to return one day:)

Calitzdorp is good for one or two nights stay.
Calitzdorp is good for one or two nights stay. It is a small town with not too much to do, about five lovely wine farms and a historical walk through town. Not many options at night where to have a meal although we did find the Bakhuis, with devine pizza's. I would definitely want to go back but this time to do some hiking trails and mtb.

Lovely historical town on the Route 62.
Lovely historical town on the Route 62. Visits to Boplaas and De Krants for port & wine (& gin & whisky) tastings are a MUST DO.
De Krants offers a lovely breakfast and GREAT COFFEE, both of which are impossible to find on a Monday morning in Calitzdorp
What a fantastic place, maybe the best place we have stayed in Southafrica. You can sit all day and Fall into trance over the view from the cottages. Magical. The cottages are comfortable and so well designed that you think you are in a classy hotel, but with personality. And a perfect personal service fron Gondwyn. And then all the things you can do, swim in the river, padle the canoe/kayak for free or take beautifull walks. Or just sit on the veranda and enjoy. Highly recommended. We were there for 5 days.

The hosts extended a warm and friendly welcome. Situated in a tranquil Calitzdorp neighborhood, the guest house offers convenient access to the main road and excellent dining options. Our room was generously sized, equipped with a Nespresso machine and snacks. We thoroughly enjoyed the exceptional breakfast at Port Guesthouse and are glad that we chose to stay for it.
The cottage is attractively-built and decorated with personality and care. The fine art, interesting crockery, soft furnishings and books are nice touches and we enjoyed the sounds of the stream at night and the views of masses of stars. The dirt-road drive there from Calitzdorp is also very scenic, with twists and turns and great views of the dam.
The cottage was well appointed, spacious and extremely clean and comfortable. There was a filter on the kitchen tap and cold water in the fridge for us. Lots on interesting books on the bookshelf. Kevin gave us a map of Route 62 to use on our trip, which was very useful. Can highly recommend Gasteria Grange. Pity we only stayed 1 night
This beautiful cottage is fit for a magazine feature, it's superbly furnished and decorated, with everything you need for an off-the-grid get away/hide-away. Joe, the host, was friendly and very accommodating. It's located in the picturesque Groenfontein valley just outside of Calitzdorp, you wouldn't want to leave.
The Calitz served my husband and me really well. Angela was very helpful in pointing out places of interest which we really enjoyed. The place was central to everything that we needed and wanted to do. We would definitely recommend the place to anyone needing accommodation in Calitzdorp.
Very spacious, clean rooms, excellent comfortable beds, beautifully hot shower, great aircon (necessary for 37C heat). Reasonable value for money. Delicious local port and brandy at the attached restaurant at R15/R30 a glass! All-in-all a very pleasant and reasonable one night stopover.
Our room was very comfortable with all the facilities we needed. There are plenty of tables and chairs in the garden that we enjoyed sitting at. The guest house is in a quiet part of town, our breakfast was great and our hosts very friendly and helpful.
Our room was lovely - spacious and clean. Nice touch with outside seating areas to enjoy the beautiful gardens and surrounding mountain views. Breakfast was a lovely addition - simple but very good. Would definitely stay there again.
Excellent location close to shops and major wine estates. Spacious rooms and well-equipped kitchen, Nespresso machine was a hit. Bottled water, ample coffee, tea and milk supplied, as well as a tin of rusks for early morning coffee.
A wonderful bed and breakfast with an excellent location in Calitzdorp. The staff were friendly and the rooms were spacious and clean. The breakfast was delicious! Definitely recommended if you are on Route 62.
Great hosts, including Liffy the dog a very gentle loving animal. The apartment was well furnished, lots of garden space, safe parking. The lovely breakfast was good and prompt.
