Very spacious bedrooms, safe hotel in a quiet area. The hotel managed the load shedding issues very well. The beds were very comfortable. Ordering breakfast the night before could have been simplified, but having said that the food was very nice.

The quality of the accommodation is first class and service matches that. It is situated at Westcliff near new harbour a few minutes away from the coast path that we enjoyed walking along which was well made with plenty of benches to enjoy the sea. The path continues for miles, but is a pleasant walk to old harbour, town and restaurants. Breakfasts were excellent, and it was good to speak with other guests and hosts. Would recommend and we would return. Thank you for a great stay

A modern property with large well equipped bedrooms, clean and comfortable and with excellent ensuite facilities. The owners were very welcoming and friendly and provided a good breakfast with a choice of cooked items,breads and pastries.The property has secure enclosed parking, has a view of the sea from the front and is within a couple of minutes walk from the cliff top path which runs into Hermanus and from which whales can be seen as they pass along the coast. Hermanus with its many restaurants and facilities is a three minute drive away.

uitstraling aan de buitenkant veel moderner dan de inrichting aan de binnenkant. Wel prima uitzicht op de baai en ook lekker gegeten in het restaurantje aan de nieuwe haven. excellent ontbijt
