Nice hotel close to the beach
Only 5 mins drive from central Hermanus - room was very large and had a splendid sea-facing view. The bed was very comfy and the staff were very friendly. We dined at the hotel - the menu was simple yet tasty. This hotel is best enjoyed when you are driving yourself as taxis are quite expensive.

Modern hotel with some seafront views
My wife and I had a one night stay as we toured the wineries in the Hermanus area. The hotel was not in Hermanus but a little way out at Sandbaai with spectacular ocean views from the restaurant. At breakfast we saw whales in the bay. Breakfast was excellent and quality of the food outstanding. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Unfortunately our room had no ocean view. We looked on to a brick wall. For the price of the room this was very disappointing.

The view from Crayfish Cottage is stunning, a short walk onto the rocks. Breakfast is something not to be missed and the service is excellent. Its quiet so you can enjoy the bird calls and the sound of the sea yet only a few minutes drive from Hermanus beachfront. We would definitely stay here again.

A beautiful modern hotel with its own garden for fruits and vegetables plus an adorable little tortoise garden where they have rescued baby tortoises. The views are amazing from the lounge and eating area.

Amazing private getaway
Our stay at Schulphoek Seafront Guesthouse & Restaurant was one of the best places we visited in South Africa, a truly 5 star experience with personal service, privacy, dedicated chefs and even onsite organic gardens for fresh greens with each meal. We selected food type and the menu was specifically designed for our personal preferences. From a very luxurious room to the wonderful views of the seashore this is a first class guesthouse. The owner is a sommelier with a great wine cellar to complement each meal with an excellent pairing. Not to be missed when in Hermanus for whale watching or wine tasting.
