We recently stayed at this wonderful guesthouse and was blown away by the incredible service and inviting atmosphere. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect, especially as it was just days before our wedding. They made every effort to accommodate us, making our time there special and relaxing. With delightful surprises like the yummy cherry to end our day on a sweet note and the delicious chocolate left on our bed during turndown service, accompanied by a thoughtful note with the next day's forecast. Plus, the view from the guesthouse was absolutely breathtaking, adding to the overall experience. I highly recommend a stay here. The breakfast was delicious, the location was perfect - not too close to the shops, but just far enough to feel relaxed. It truly made for an unforgettable pre-wedding getaway.

This guesthouse is perfect for a beach-body who loves a scenic, tranquil and relaxing getaway. There is a trail for walking, jogging and/or running too! The sunset is gorgeous from the balcony and can be enjoyed with the wonderful sound of the waves too. It’s absolutely breathtaking and the staff is super friendly as well. Desré, the owner, goes out of her way to make you feel at home. She ensures that you are constantly kept updated with the loadshedding times, to avoid disappointment as well as the daily weather reports to properly plan your day/s too. The breakfast is wholesome, delicious and the presentation thereof is stunning too. I would definitely recommend anybody and everybody to come here! You won’t regret it.

The property lies perfectly at the seaside near Hermanus. The house is wonderful and splendid - as is the overwhelming breakfast, freshly prepared in the morning. Competing with another place in Cape Town our best breakfast we had traveling South Africa! And made just right for you from owners and staff. The room is not huge but very tidy and nice for sleeping. It had an ocean view but just from the side... well, we just stayed there for 1 night.

The room could have been bigger/better, but the kindliness of the owners and the fantastic breakfast made up for everything. So it is still a 9!

As a stop on our tour of the Garden Route, we stayed at 138 Marine Beachfront Guesthouse. We received a very warm welcome, Desire generally exuded a special friendliness and gave us a few helpful tips for exploring the area. The guesthouse is very clean and tastefully decorated. You can see the attention to detail. There were fresh flowers in the room and the breakfast table with a view of the sea was stylishly set. The breakfast itself was excellent. Thanks to the overall positive atmosphere, the guesthouse was recommended for another stay.

Best breakfast we have ever had in SA. Views from breakfast room and upstairs lounge lovely. Easy parking Great staff Access to cliff path VERY easy.

Television was small and in a cupboard. No air con Also whilst room lovely thought we would have seaviews from our bed. We had to stand at the foot of the bed to get a sea view from a small window. One of our joys in SA in a number of locations was to wake up and see the sea - not possible in this room. Having said that it is a lovely guest house with exceedingly high standards. The staff are lovely and very helpful

This place was fabulous. We arrived at Hermanus and found out that the entire town had lost power a couple of days prior to our arrival due to wind. We thought about moving on and not staying here. That would have been a mistake. We arrived at the guesthouse which overlooks the ocean to house light by candles. It was beautifully lit and romantic. We went to our room and were shown a sitting room with a roaring fire and a decanter of sherry. Since there was no power or wifi, we spent the evening talking, laughing, playing card games and enjoying the warm fire while sipping sherry. In the morning we were greeted by the delicious smells of breakfast and a beautifully set table just for us. Couldn’t ask for more. The ladies that own this are super caring and sweet. I wish I could return!

I’d like to say that I wish we had had power/ wifi, but that would have totally changed the experience. It was absolute breathtaking and perfect. Thank you for making it special.

Although the visit was short, it was amazing and memorable! The house and view are even more stunning in person. We spent hours in the lounge area just soaking in the sun and sounds of the waves. The place is spotless and looks like it comes out of a magazine. Water pressure was amazing in the shower and the bed was very comfy. Best thing though was our host and the breakfast! Thank you Sabina for making us feel like family and I need to get the recipe for the tomato chutney and mushrooms!

Nothing, it was perfect!

This is the best, most comfortable, most accommodating Guesthouse/B&B we have ever stayed at. The attention to detail from air fresheners in the bathroom through bed turndown chocolates through a departure gift, etc. are delightful. The sumptuous breakfast, excellent coffee and service at tables looking out over the sea and waves were a delight in themselves . Desre and Hester excellent managers. I can’t say enough about how pleasant our stay was.

I can find no fault in anything.

The room was clean, has underfloor heating, perfectas we visited in winter. The house is very inviting, fresh flowers and nicely decorated. The views were spectacular 👌 ✨️. Situated next to the sea. It's close to most of the attractions in Hermanus town and surrounding areas. 5 star breakfast. The place was everything on the pictures and more. Warm and friendly staff, very helpful with advising on places to visit.

The bed and pillow were not all good for me. There was also one side lamp that was faulty and kept on going on and off.

The views! The communal areas were lovely especially as we didn't have a Seaview room. Access to a fridge and sink etc was so handy. Breakfast was fab and what a view to eat your breakfast with. We liked the location even though it wasn't in actual Hermanus but Sandbaii. The walk along the coast there was fantastic - don't miss the chance to walk it in addition to the main cliff path. Enough parking, safety deposit and very clean. Would go again.

This isn't a criticism as it doesn't pretend to be in Hermanus centre but people may not realise if they don't pay attention so just be aware that you have to drive into town for dinner.
