185 on Beach is an elegant boutique collection of self-catering and B&B suites nestled along Gordon’s Bay’s Bikini Beach, offering iconic oceanfront stays with unmatched comfort and convenience. Owned by renowned theater personality Richard Loring and his wife Jeanette, it has earned TripAdvisor's Travellers' Choice award every year from 2012 to 2023. Every suite boasts sweeping views of False Bay's waves, the marina, mountains, and those legendary sunsets. Just meters from the water, the property features a pristine sea-water rim-flow pool, just 200 meters from the Blue Flag Bikini Beach. Inspired to stay connected? No load-shedding woes here—each suite includes a 1000W inverter to power Wi-Fi, DSTV/Netflix, lighting, and devices uninterrupted. Check-in is inclusive of thoughtful touches: optional gourmet breakfasts served on your balcony, daily room servicing, braai facilities, luxury linen, and a host of amenities including kitchenettes, Nespresso machines, and parking. “Pure Excellence! … waves almost breaking beneath our balcony,” and “Best guest house in Gordon’s Bay… ultimate short holiday experience” are just two guest-review highlights.
