Amazing place to stay in Hermanas! We got engaged and we had the most magical stay at your property.

Pros: Stunning property. Lovely helpful staff. Beautiful setting. Rooms are incredible.

Cons: Absolutely nothing! Wish we could have stayed longer!

Perfect way to end our holiday on a high. We drove direct to Cape Town airport from Hermanus.

Pros: The location is stunning with the mountains behind and the lake in front. The interior has been thoughtfully decorated and it was very comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Cons: Breakfast. It would be good to have a breakfast bar rather than a menu but I suspect they don't have the space for this unless they re-arrange the lounge area.

Cons: Nothing.

The pearl of Hermanus!

Pros: We loved the staff, it was our honeymoon and they really made an extra effort, especially Jenica. The rest of the staff was so attentive, kind and helpful. The surroundings made it feel like you were on a different planet, quiet, and beautiful, with the amazing nature surrounding you. Also, the food and wine options were outstanding!

Pros: We had a wonderful stay and can highly recommend this stunning place. Everything was perfect – the accommodation was very clean, comfortable, and well equipped, and we felt welcome from the very first moment. A huge thank you to the hosts for their kindness, hospitality, and attention to detail. It truly made our stay special and relaxing. You can really feel how much care and heart goes into this place. I've been there three times, and we would absolutely love to come back and would recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for a luxurious, pleasant and memorable stay.

Fantastic - will be back!

Pros: Everything! The setting is stunning, the staff are SO friendly and get to know you, food is good, breakfast sitting on the terrace is gorgeous. It’s not a cheap hotel but you really feel like you get a personalised stay.

Cons: The pool isn’t heated so it’s not the warmest (December).

Completely ideal!

Pros: Such a beautiful property, in an incredible location. It felt like home because there are only seven rooms. The staff were also super attentive.

Cons: It was crazy expensive. It was worth it but probably only if you stayed longer.

Martin 10/10

This was the most stylish boutique hotel in the area

Pros: It’s a beautiful stylish building and the log burners were very welcome on chilly evenings. The sunset hot tub experience by the lagoon is a wow and not to be missed
