This guesthouse is undoubtedly one of the best beach B&Bs I’ve ever visited. The decor is charming, creating a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. Its location is spectacular, offering breathtaking views of the ocean. The hosts were incredibly sweet, making the stay even more enjoyable. The food was outstanding, and the view from the Oyster room was simply unbelievable. A perfect beachside retreat that I highly recommend!
Fabulous location, superb room looking out on the ocean, very welcoming and could not do enough to ensure a great stay. Cannot recommend highly enough.
Hotel is in superb location with stunning views. We walked to local restaurants, the Fat Fish was superb. Excellent breakfast and staff who can’t do enough. Recommend it for your stay. Two very minor issues - sadly we didn’t have sea view and the wind blew the door open if not locked.
We stayed here just for 2 nights but enjoyed the comfortable room and especially the excellent breakfasts in the lovely dining area. The sea views are wonderful and the area felt very safe. Just a short drive from Hermanus
From a lovely welcome onwards our stay was relaxed, comfortable and exactly what we had hoped for.
Our 2 rooms were both very well plamned and equipped, and the upstairs room was particularly spacious.
Breakfast was tasty and gave us an opportunity to chat with both the hosts and a guest.
We could walk from the door to the beach in 2 minutes, and enjoyed both the upstairs deck and the garden when relaxing at the b&b.
Top marks for wonderful hosting. Thank you.
We were warmly welcomed, and shown to secure parking and a lovely room. Everything was completely clean, comfortable, and beautifully decorated in coastal whites. It was a pleasure listening to the waves overnight. It is located right on the coast, and only about a 10-minute drive to Hermanus old harbour. Our hosts were extremely courteous and welcoming, and able to provide tips on parking in Hermanus, which we appreciated.
It was amazing. The view and the guess was friendly. It is a place to get away and relax in peace. The breakfast was outstanding as well. I recommend this place to everyone who is looking for a quiet and relaxing vacation.
We had a fantastic stay. The property is right on near the water with amazing ocean views and the staff was so lovely and helpful. I would definitely recommend this stay in Hermanus.
Very pretty guest house right on the beach in Sandbaai, approximately 7-10 minutes drive from the town center of Hermanus. The location is picture perfect! Our room was comfortable if a little on the small side - equipped with a fridge, coffee station, air conditioning and the usual amenities. The owner, Jena, was lovely and made us feel very welcome. This was sadly not our experience of the rest of the managerial and kitchen staff. Service at breakfast was dismissive and the “chef” bordered on being rude. Food was adequate although parts of the buffet offering had not been covered and had attracted flies. The standard of housekeeping was not good. I have a pet hate which is finding previous guests’ hair in the room. Unfortunately, there were several long hairs on the bath mats, on the hairdryer itself and on the shower tiles which I found most off-putting. In short, this was fine for a one night stay but it would require a huge improvement in its cleanliness and service standards for us to consider booking here again.
An amazing place to stay. The views are incredible! It’s such a quaint place with incredible views of the sea. We had a relaxing stay.
The hosts were incredibly welcoming and kindly made us dinner reservations in town the evening we arrived. Breakfast was exceptional and they even gave us recommendations for our drive to the next town and where to stop for lunch.
A small bed and breakfast overlooking the coast of Hermanus. The hosts have been very helpful, and the property is excellent. The walk along the ocean is priceless!
Brilliant place to stay, even with a four year old and a two year old. Initial thoughts on arrival included nervousness about how our children might damage the property in some way as it is so pristine and doesn't immediately feel child friendly. In reality the owners went out of their way to make our kids feel welcome, including Disney crockery. Belinda was really helpful re scenic routes to drive and restaurants to visit. Would recommend staying here to friends definitely.
This guesthouse goes the ‘extra mile’ with thoughtful extras like a glass of fizz on arrival, tea, coffee & fresh milk in the lounge. Suggestions for restaurants, booking them & calling taxis. Lovelbreakfast
Bright, airy and modern. Comfort and attention to detail. Along with good advice on eating out and points of interest on our way, our hostess is the mostess.
On returning from late dinner the decanter of port left for us was lovely.
Fantastic guesthouse in an amazing location. Falling asleep to the sound of waves breaking. The staff were lovely and full of local knowledge of places to eat, and visit. Will be back for sure.
Amazing place. Right from check-in the staff here go way beyond what was expected, taking the initiative in booking us a table at a local restaurant and a taxi there and back at peak Christmas time was such a lovely touch.
