This small private hotel (guest house!) is an absolute gem. It is beautifully designed. Our room was very large and well equipped with a sumptuous bathroom. The communal areas are a delight with elegant and well designed features. As another reviewer has commented the pool needs to be heated! It is a stones throw from a fabulous beach where my... More

Five star places to stay in SA are either ludicrously expensive (more expensive than Europe!!) or they are just not up to scratch. Fortunately this place falls into neither category. Expensive but worth it, well trained staff, great size rooms, lovely beds/linen, fabulous bathrooms and although small, nice communal areas. Actually couldn't find fault. The heating in our room was... More

We were very fortunate to have spent 2 nights in this magnificent tranquil hotel with views both of the majestic mountains at the back and sea in front. Our luxurious huge room were extremely comfortable and had every convenience one could wish for. Coupled with the sumptious breakfasts and manageress Linda's and majordomo Wisdom's friendly and efficient attention, made our... More

Mosselberg guesthouse was a great surprise as the rooms are enormous and the property is just a short distance from Grotto Beach. Staff were helpful and their newly started chef did an excellent job in the evening if you required dinner. The 'best' room sits on top of the breakfast/restaurant and has panoramic views over the beach. The weather had... More

This was my second visit to Mosselberg Guesthouse and I was once again suitably impressed by the beauty of the space, the location, the sublime views, the decor and the atmosphere of peace and serenity. My first impression was "wow look at that view!" So I believe the architects executed the vision perfectly. Great care was taken to consider the... More

We arrived at this small private hotel to be greeted warmly, and shown to our room... And what a room! The panoramic doors folded right back to give a wall to wall opening... with unobstructed views (and sound) of the waves breaking on the shore, some 300 meters away. Definitely washes the senses clean and restores the human mind and... More

This 5 bedroomed house is located in the beautiful residential area of Voelklip, which is about 10 mins drive from the quaint centre of Hermanus; or around £15 for a return taxi, if like us you want to enjoy the local wines.  Finding it by Sat Nav was a little confusing, as we were searching on 10th Avenue, not the...

Thank you for a wonderful stay at your World Class establishment. Even though we were a part of a Wedding Party, it was really special. I am certain when it is not so frantic it must be a piece of Heaven. We stayed in Sugarbird, overlooking the ocean. The shutters and stack back windows, with breathtaking volumes were subllime.

It's more like someone's house, than a hotel (in a good way). Downstairs everything is open plan and the views over the beach are stunning. Lovely different comfy sofa areas to sit and have drinks. We were pretty much the only ones there so we had the run of the place, as did our one year old, which was good... More
