We stayed at Gecko's for 40 nights and had the most amazing time. Roger and Leonie were perfect hosts and certainly made us feel welcome. They went out of there way to educate us about the area and culture which we truly appreciated. We cant wait to return next year...

Leonie and Roger are the perfect hosts: they take care of your before you arrive in Coffee Bay, give accurate directions to arrive sane and safe.

Having reached Coffee Bay following the advice "Don't drive on the left of the road but on the road that is left", the Gecko Guest House is the best that can happen to you: a beautiful garden in front of your room, peaceful sleep, and a marvelous breakfast the next morning. All thanks to your incredibly friendly and helpful hosts... More

A nice, clean, relaxing place to stay. The owners did their best to make life as easy as possible in Coffee Bay. If they could have only changed the weather. Than it would have been perfect.

We had a really good and restful time at Gecko's Guest House in Coffee Bay, Leonie and Roger are great hosts and make everything seem effortless, even though I am sure its not! Our rooms were very comfortable and contained everything we needed. And the meals Roger cooked, well, they come highly recommended!

We had a wonderful stay at the self-catering cabin at Gecko Guest House for 4 days. The unit was comfortable and clean, providing everything we required. Thank you Roger and Leonie and we hope to be able to do so again soon!
