6 Stemmet Lodge

6 Stemmet Lodge

📍 6 Stemmet St, Hermanus
★★★★ 8.7 (55 reviews)

"We had a little trouble accessing the property as the gate intercom was lacking credit. Once we checked in everything was good. There was space to sit outside in the sun and enjoy the fresh air. It was an easy walk in to town to choose a place for dinner or to walk along the seafront and enjoy the views. We had a comfortable room, bed and pillows and woke to the sound of birds chirping happily. Breakfast was plentiful and we left refreshed."

One Marine Drive Boutique Hotel & Spa by the Living Journey Collection

One Marine Drive Boutique Hotel & Spa by the Living Journey Collection

📍 1 Marine Dr, Hermanus
★★★★ 9.3 (69 reviews)

"We stayed at 1 Marine Drove for two nights and could not have been happier with our choice. The welcome was warm and informative - it is rare these days to be shown to your room and all of the amenities available but this was the welcome we received. Secure underground car park, and close to the town - the view is ridiculously beautiful. Breakfast choices were plentiful and the quality of ingredients and cooking superb. We felt very looked after throughout our stay. Everyone is super friendly. We stayed in room 17 which was spacious and clean and again with excellent facilities and complimentary sustainable products. We love the idea of collecting excess water in a bucket for re-use in the garden ! We had no issue with the kettle and coffee machine being outside of the room, it felt like an extension of our space The town and shops and restaurants are about a 10 minute walk away. The coastal path is easily accessible and provides a nice route to walk. We definitely recommend and will return."

Whale Coast Ocean Villa Hotels in Hermanus

"Great stay, close to the beach. Friendly people. Breakfast with joghurt and fruits. We enjoyed our stay."

Baleia Guest Lodge Hotels in Hermanus

Baleia Guest Lodge

"Basic structure, the rooms are quite cold with only a small heated plate near the bed. There is also a heated blanket. The very large bathroom has no heating. Minimal breakfast, a little salty and little sweet. It is not possible to have an espresso or short coffee, only the cup of American coffee. The internal parking is useful and allows you to keep your car safe. The restaurant area is not far away but as it is dark at 6pm it is best not to venture out on foot."

Whale Rock Luxury Lodge Hotels in Hermanus

Whale Rock Luxury Lodge

"Gorgeous hotel, well appointed in a quiet residential area of Hermanus, we stayed in the Villa part of the property, a reasonably new addition lovely, bright and modern big comfy beds and gorgeous bathrooms, and with solar power so no load shedding issues here. Breakfasts every day were cooked to order and delicious, plus the buffet pancakes were delicious. The pool area is the perfect place to relax and unwind after a long day. They also have an honesty bar, which is very handy, too. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and will for sure return. We must really thank Aspen, who's great customer service, made our stay magical and special. Thank you so much for having us and looking after us so well"

Birkenhead House Hotels in Hermanus

Birkenhead House

"Just had 2 days at the Birkenhead in Hermanus, what a privilege it has been to experience this incredible all inclusive boutique hotel. From the moment you pull up at the entrance your car and luggage are quickly ushered away and a cocktail will be in your hand within minutes and a fantastic cocktail it will be to. This is a boutique hotel with the service and ambience to match any luxury top hotel, it is truly like at home. Our rooms had a beautiful decor, outside seating for a private drink, a huge bed and a bathroom that was seen to be believed. There is no skimping on all inclusive, full minibar with bottles of whisky, brandy, gin, vodka and the African liqueur. Wine and beer plus beautiful chocolates and nibbles etc. Food and drink are in plentiful supply and are at the standard you would expect for such a hotel. Breakfast overlooking the sea and beach watching the surfers. Lunch in the shade by the middle pool, wonderful and dinner in the amazing lounge area to watch the sun go down and sit by the log fire. The staff outnumber the guest and they are predicting what you want before you have asked. The staff are warm and friendly huge thanks to Chris, Luca, Lila and Dexter to mention just a few for taking such good care of us. Birkenhead a unique and special experience not quite like anything else I have experienced. Loved our stay and the team made every effort to make us feel special."

Selkirk House Hotels in Hermanus

Selkirk House

"Our stay at Selkirk House was outstanding from start to finish. Celia is an exceptionally friendly and helpful host. She supported us with excellent restaurant recommendations and gave valuable tips for day trips in the area. The generous breakfast deserves special mention, offering a wide selection of fresh fruit and various freshly prepared egg dishes. Everything was beautifully presented and of high quality. The rooms are very spacious and thoughtfully decorated with great attention to detail. In the room, coffee, tea, and water are provided. The bathroom is perfectly equipped — nothing is missing. There are even candles to create a relaxing atmosphere in the bathtub, as well as tissues and many small extras that make a difference. Thank you, Celia, for hosting us so warmly at Selkirk House. We look forward to coming back."

Grand Lux Boutique Manor Hotels in Hermanus

Grand Lux Boutique Manor

"The owners of this hotel need to give some thought as to what makes a client happy. Our room was very spacious with a lovely view. That is where the compliments end. In extreme wind we had to walk outside to get into our room, despite there being a door inside the hotel leading directly into our suite. We were told by the manager that the door was “ for the staff’s use only to service the room”. The same applied to getting to breakfast. We had to walk outside in the howling wind, through a door that was very difficult to open, only to discover the manager had walked through the house via the kitchen, wind free. There were workmen on a Sunday morning painting around the pool. I decided as it was windy I would use the gym, only to discover a painter inside there too and, as a result, the room had such strong paint fumes it was unusable. There was no cappuccino or lattes available at breakfast, no none dairy options either. On the table there was only cheap table salt, no course salt. The shower had no hand rail or seat and the bath had nowhere to place shampoo or soap. No wonder we had to sign an indemnity at check in. And the hotel is not cheap. With a great location and some sweet staff who serviced our room, it will be a pity if these issues are not resolved. We packed up and left early. Did not see one other guest there. Not surprised."

Misty Waves Boutique Hotel ★★★★
"The decoration of the hotel is very exquisite, in European aristocratic style. The front desk service was very enthusiastic, and the female manager took the initiative to upgrade me to a sea view room on the second floor. As soon as I entered the room, I saw two whales spraying water on the beach on the balcony. It deserves to be called a whale watching town, with sea view + whale, the scenery is really good."
