Great location and beautiful rooms
Apparently the room type that I booked was nonexistent upon arriving at the hotel. Tired and just looking to relax, I didnt feel like arguing with the onsite hotel manager. I agreed to rent an additional room and asked for the going room rate, which was $250. To be fair, I offered to take the additional room for $200 a night- spending two nights at $400 total. Plus the room I had already booked and paid for on Expedia. What I found very odd was that the onsite hotel head manager said I had to pay in cash and could not use the credit card I pulled out of my wallet to pay with. I had to find an ATM and give him $400 in cash for the additional room. Working in the hotel industry, I knew the hotel was not booked up for those two nights and I found it very odd that he said he would need cash for both nights. AS a hotel manager, I would never ask for cash and tell someone no credit card. I question if he told his owner that he comp the additional room and kept the cash for himself or some of the cash. I absolutely loved the hotel and location and would stay there again but would ensure I booked the room with two twin beds and validate in writing directly from the hotel that they had that room type. Just very suspicious of the onsite hotel manager.

2/10 Poor

Manager demanded extra charges for the room
Very bad hotel staff, demanded extra payment from us when we arrived for check in at the night hours. We had booked for 2 people stay in their penthouse luxury suite, but apparently their Manager said that in his system it was showing 1 adult. He kept pressurizing us and since it was night hours we had to pay him the difference charge for the night.

Dolphin watching over breakfast
We stayed in the penthouse, which is incredibly roomy with a great outdoor terrace (shared with the other room on the top floor). Absolutely fantastic views from the room, highlighted by watching dolphins in the bay while having breakfast. We also had dinner one night and it was the best meal we had on our week long Garden Route trip. Location is convenient to visit either Hermanus (and the wine farms nearby) or to go to Gansbaai for shark diving.

Whale watching
We stayed for one night and wished we had booked more. The room was large, straight out onto the pool and with sea views. the large glass front was one way so had the advantage of being able to leave the curtains open and still have privacy. Good breakfast while we watched the whales playing in the bay.

Excellent Guest House with Incredible View
This is an absolutely fantastic guest house. The owner has gone to great length in making sure that every detail of the rooms is taken into account, is in working order, and makes the guest feel special. Their selection of intern/manager was also superb in that Kathi went to great lengths, and great detail, to ensure that every guest was very well cared for. Every detail was looked after. Kathi even had called, in advance, to set up a dinner reservation for us. A two or three day stay in this guest house is very much worth it, especially during October and November.

Perfekt för att kolla in valar under säsongen
Hotellet har ett fantastiskt läge och måste vara perfekt under valsäsongen. Fina rum, flera med balkong. Trevliga omgivningar. Nackdelen är att det finns få restauranger i närheten så det kräver bil när man vill åka och äta.

We had a very pleasant stay. Nice hotel, comfortable room, good service. The breakfast is very good. But I expected a bit more for the money to be honest.

Amazing !
Très bel endroit, face à la mer. Chambre spacieuse et très confortable. Pour cause de plongée avec le grand blanc, nous n’avons pas pu prendre de breakfast. En compensation notre hôte nous a permit de revenir en chambre après la plongée pour prendre une douche. Il était presque 12h. Je recommande fortement

Das Haus ist ein einziger Traum.
Wir waren 4 Nächte hier in diesem Traumhaus. Das Ambiente lässt keine Wünsche offen. Wir hatten eine tolle Wohnung auf dem Pooldeck. Sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet, tolles, luxuriöses Bad und riesen Terasse direkt zur Walker Bay. Die Managerin Kate super freundlich und aufmerksam. Ein tolles Frühstück mit frisch gebratenen Eiern und Pancakes. Frisches Obst, alles sehr appetitlich angerichtet. Nachmittags gibt es Obst und Kaffee un Kuchen. Ich würde immer wiederkommen!
