Homestays in Overberg District Municipality

Did not really use any service so the is why the 3* Some of  The informationon the local restaurants is out dated and is no longer there or closed. Very limited shops in the area so be prepared if your going to stay more than one night.  Did not really like the way that had put notes that if you use more dishes than ‘normal’ you will be charged, if you upset the TV settings ‘you will be charged’ otherwise a good place to stop.

Very homey, well-designed and well-maintained room. Spacious bed with mattress heater which was very helpful for the winter. Plus point for having two sinks. The room didn't have air conditioner or heater but the very friendly host was so kind to provide us with a portable one. Minus point: Wifi was slow and the signal was choppy. The chair at the desk was not very comfortable

Just fantastic. Hermanus is a beautiful little place anyhow but with a stay at “On the Cliff” the trip was topped off perfectly. I’ve never had such an extensive breakfast in all of my travels which really kick started my day. Thank you.

Fantastic place to stay very spacious rooms and lovely grounds to walk around Breakfast is top class , cooked freshly Service is ultra friendly Close to lots of good restaurants I have no hesitation in fully recommending Rothman Manor

Had a splendid 2 night stay and wish we could have stayed longer. The staff made us feel so welcome. They are exceptionally polite and well informed on the surrounding area. We were provided with a map full of helpful suggestions, and a thorough introduction to the lodge and all it's facilities upon check-in. The lodge is located right next to Hermanus New Harbour and a few steps from the cliff path, which is well worth the walk. The room was clean, comfortable and spacious. It opens onto a beautiful, well maintained garden area but a few steps from the pool. Breakfast was fantastic (reccommend the Full English!), and a lovely selection of breads, cereals, fruits, cold meats, yogurts etc at the buffet. Truly, no complaints. Would absolutely stay again.

We had a truly fantastic stay at Hilltop Country Retreat. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The location is absolutely beautiful, with peaceful surroundings and stunning views that make it the perfect place to relax and unwind. The accommodation was spotless, comfortable, and very well maintained. You can really see the care and attention put into every detail. The amenities were excellent and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The service was also outstanding — warm, welcoming, and very helpful throughout our visit. It felt like a real home away from home. We would highly recommend Hilltop Country Retreat to anyone looking for a quiet and relaxing getaway. We will definitely be back!

What a gem this place is. I had four extra days after a conference in Capetown and booked here after a brief online search.  Karen and Dave have made this a lovely place to be.  As soon as I arrived they invited me to a beer at the cozy pub onsite, gave me great advice on who to book with for shark diving and whale watching… and then later hiking in DeKelders … My “room” as a solo traveler was really a condo— a living room with kitchenette, and then upstairs the bedroom. Good food, good wifi, and good conversation made the experience an A +. Lulu the friendly dog cements the deal to make the place feel like home.!

Beautiful little guest house on a farm situated just outside of Swellendam. A little difficult to find if you don’t know the area, but the owner was very friendly and helpful. The owner recommended some good restaurants to dine at too. Very clean and beautifully decorated. Just a 5 to 10 minute drive from the center of town.

The hotel is 10 minutes walk from the city center. The hostess helped book a tour to the whales. Sleep cold, but there are warm blankets and electric blankets. The room has a microwave, teapot, refrigerator. Very delicious breakfast, thank you for this separately. We forgot our things in the hotel and the hotel immediately emailed us. The town is safe and we first walked in 2 weeks night.
