Vanessa and Derek are the absolutely wonderful hosts at this property and Vanessa could not have been more of a help to me and my partner if she tried . Help and advice was given to us freely about the area and what there is to do . I could not recommend this property enough, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay ! Thank you so so much !

Vanessa and Derek were the most wonderful hosts who were ready to help at any given minute. They are so friendly & never hesitated to make our stay 10 x better. The unit was clean, neat and cozy. It was perfect for our short stay. There's a lovely entertainment area which we could use to wind down as well as a lovely kitchen which we could use to prepare our meals. I would definitely recommend it to anyone passing by or traveling through Hermanus.

Vanessa and Derek are very sweet and generous hosts. They even let us use the key to the private lagoon which is gorgeous, especially for sunset. Total must-do when you're there. And they lend us an extra set of binoculars which was fantastic to watch the whales in Hermanus. The housing itself is a bit rustic. If it's windy you can feel and hear it inside but you have blankets to keep yourself warm and with ear plugs you can turn off the wind. We felt cozy.

The ambiance and warm reception is absolutely beautiful and such a lovely peaceful energy that greets you when entering the space. Vanessa goes out of her way to ensure her patrons feel welcomed and well looked after. We will certainly return. Our room was neat and clean, breakfast was delicious. Thank you

The setting and paintings on the entrance of the building with such inspirational quotes and images. Peace and quietness

Staff were super helpful and friendly. Vanessa went out of her way to discuss our trip and give us some tips. She also went out of her way to flow up after we left with more information. Very accommodating. Amazing value. Safe area with gated parking. No complaints!

The hostess Vanessa went out of her way to welcome us and gave us all the interesting tips in and around Hermanus for us to make the best out of our time. The garden furnishing is very cute and the water fountain attracts so many different species of birds. We had a winery safari tour and dinner at Benguela Cove and were looking for a nearby location to relax in the evening and the location of the lodge was more than superb to meet our needs. Vanessa enticed us to come back for the whale season so I am now planning for it! Thank you for warmly welcoming two of us who were already very merry from the winery tour! Baby, the dog, was so friendly too!

Load Shedding frequency which affected the location which disrupted the water fountain outdoors and disappointed the birds, but apart from that the lodge was basic but had all the important amenities and it was such a blessing for both of us to have overnighted there.

The hosts, Vanessa and Derrick were just fantastic! The room was clean and comfortable with all the amenities I required. I had not packed in my cellphone charger and they organised me a loaner for the night. I had to leave very early in the next morning (03:45 am) and they were very accommodating and even helped me with my luggage in the early hours of the morning. They really did go the extra mile for me and I will definitely use their establishment again.

Welcoming by hosts. Helpfully and pleasant people. Lots of opportunities to walk, nice estuary.

You need a car to visit the center and amenities of Hermanus. No shops or restaurants in 8 km distance. Taxi available, but from the center.

Vanessa was the sweetest host! We arrived at 7pm and she still offered to do our laundry which was also ready at 8 in the morning 🥰 the room was nice, comfy and quite. There was also coffee, tea and a fridge in the room. Both of them gave us a lot of information what to and not to do on the garden route, even texted us after we checked out. They also have 2 adorable dogs 🌞 Definitely recommend and hopefully see you again one day!!

They were exceptionally kind and incredibly hospitable. They made a point to regularly inquire about my comfort and well-being. Although I failed to give a day's notice for breakfast, Vanessa's thoughtfulness shone through as she prepared a delightful waffle with ice cream for me. It was a fantastic experience, and I would enthusiastically recommend it to my friends.

Everything was great.
