Gonana Studios & Villa

Gonana Studios & Villa offers guests sustainable self-catering accommodation blended with the fishing village charm of Paternoster. This place has been a haven and retreat for many and has just gone through a complete renovation to pair well with life in 2022 and beyond.

The main Coral Villa consists of a bedroom and separate bathroom downstairs, as well as two loft bedrooms (both en-suite) up stairs. The lounge and dining room area is fitted with a big fireplace suitable for long winter evenings. The fully-equipped kitchen includes a large gas stove and electric oven and a dishwashing machine. In the front of the property there is an indigenous garden and outdoor braai area with views of the beach roughly 100 metres away.

Gonana Studios are located behind the villa with their own separate entrances and private patios with built-in braai areas. There are 3 studios (2 downstairs and one loft studio). Each studio can accommodate 2 guests and comes with a complete kitchenette with gas stove and a private courtyard to enjoy some quiet time. The ground-floor studios overlook an indigenous garden where guests can enjoy a Kolkol hot tub (at an extra charge).
