THE eco-conscious Gonana Collection on Bekbaai beach in the calm and tranquil village of Paternoster on the West Coast of South Africa, is always a great place for a holiday getaway no matter what the season.
At Gonana, which means “to embrace” in isiZulu, winter is welcomed as the “secret” season – a time to turn inwards, a time to reflect a time to enjoy long, and a time to keep the winter chill at bay in the warm and comforting embrace of Gonana.
Here are five reasons to book a stay at Gonana Collection this winter:
- Winter Warmer Stay for Three Pay for Two special for all the properties – valid from 1 June to 31 August 2023
- Dinners (must be pre-booked) and cheese platters will be served at the guesthouse during the winter months (June – August 2023)
- Guests at the houses (Aloe and Acacia) will receive a complimentary breakfast (served at the guesthouse from 9.30am) during the winter months (June – August 2023)
