OUR<br />

STORY<br />

At the time I'd never even heard of <strong>De</strong> <strong>Kelders</strong> so I was more<br />

than a bit skeptical at the thought! We flew down <strong>to</strong> take a<br />

look and - as they say in the classics - the rest is his<strong>to</strong>ry!<br />

M A I L I E G R E E N<br />

I instantly fell in love with <strong>De</strong> <strong>Kelders</strong> and the <strong>Overberg</strong>.<br />

Because we bought early we were able <strong>to</strong> buy the<br />

apartment with the largest balcony, and the best views of<br />

the whales and the mountains.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re's nothing I love better than spending time in <strong>De</strong><br />

<strong>Kelders</strong>. I cherish the sunsets from the balcony, the sheer<br />

magnificence of the surroundings and, clearly, the whales in<br />

season! Yet, sadly, one of the tragedies of life is that one<br />

can't holiday year round(!), so we also rent out <strong>The</strong> Lookout<br />

at Whale Cove <strong>to</strong> guests.<br />

We've had wonderful feedback from our guests over the<br />

years (you can read our TripAdvisor reviews on this page).<br />

And we love that many of them view <strong>The</strong> Lookout as their<br />

home-from-home (nearly 50% are returning guests).<br />

We've developed a bit of a bug for vacation rentals so we've<br />

also bought three villas in Bali: Villa Bebek in Seminyak, Villa<br />

Sagitta in Ubud and Villa Cocoa Maya in Candidasa.<br />

Together with our family's villa at San Lameer we now run<br />

the five properties as Global Villas Ltd.<br />

earned holiday goes well on our watch! It’s always fun <strong>to</strong><br />

We are very serious about making sure that our guests’ hard-<br />

read our guests’ reviews. <strong>The</strong>re’s something very satisfying<br />

about knowing that our guests get as much enjoyment out<br />

of our homes as we do!
