Welcome to the Gonana Collection in Paternoster, a sustainably stylish choice for the worldly eco-traveler. Comprising of our flagship Guesthouse nestled on the banks of the Atlantic Ocean, along with our self-catering properties, namely, Coral Villa, Gonana Studios and Aloe & Acacia House, all of which enjoy Ocean views and just a minute or two walk from the beach. Our Collection is located on the quieter side of Paternoster known as "Bekbaai" and we are incredibly proud to be the first establishment to offer fully sustainable accommodation that includes interruption-free holidays with solar-powered properties. We also offer pet-friendly accommodation across all our self-catering properties and in one exclusive room at our Guesthouse. We regret, no children under 12 years are allowed at our Guesthouse, however, families of all ages are welcome in our self-catering properties. Gonana means to "embrace" in isiZulu and we'd love for you to embrace our way of life and Paternoster living.

Surrounded by fynbos, wheat fields in winter, and wild flowers in spring, Paternoster is also a favourite amongst snorkelers, experienced divers, kite surfers and flyers, hikers, bikers, and kayakers. And only 5 minutes away is the Cape Columbine Nature reserve which is home to an abundance of flora and fauna as well as the last manned lighthouse in South Africa which was built on Castle Rock in 1936.
