Beautiful property facing the Fynbos and the Ocean at Hermanus. Clear view of the Southern Right whales during whale season located in one of the best spots to see them as well. Steps to the beautiful Cliff Path walk for a morning or afternoon walk and 10 minutes by car to the center of town. Couldn’t be better located in my opinion. The entire staff is ready to help you with anything you need and fully interested in providing you a warm welcoming experience. The breakfast options every morning is also fantastic. I highly recommend.

Top lodge maar slechte wifi
Allemaal top, op één punt na: de wifi is erg zwak (zowel in de kamer als in de gemeenschappelijke delen)

Sehr schönes Hotel mit Blick aufs Meer.
Geräumige, saubere Zimmer, super schön und funktionell eingerichtet. Man fühlt sich sehr wohl. Hatten ein Gartenzimmer mit einer schönen Terasse und ein wenig Meerblick. Der Gästebereich mit Lounge, Kühlschrank und Terasse ist sehr schön. Alles Super.
