About Turrakom

Turrakom is a self-catering family home at the water’s edge. Wake up to the sound of waves crashing on the beach outside your bedroom window; drink sundowners and braai/barbecue while watching surfers on the famous Kommetjie Long Beach on your doorstep. In season, you may also see the whales.

The house has a large open-plan living and dining room, with a TV and a video machine, that opens onto the stoep with some of the best views in Kommetjie. It is ideal for a large family or two families sharing. There are two double bedrooms, one twin bedroom with two extra bunk beds, and a fourth bedroom with two bunk beds.
