"Pros: View across water to mountain range was spectacular Cons: Lodge feels tired and in need of TLC" ~Tonia

"Pros: The house is beautiful and warm. Very comfortable furnishings with really lovely linens. Everything you could possibly need to cook with in the large kitchen. We had bad weather so couldn't really use the lagoon or the pool, but I imagine it must be magical. We were also really comfortable in the cold and rain thanks to the huge fireplace (with firewood!) and great WiFi. Also full Dstv bouquet. Even with the cold, I spent most of my time on the porch. The view is breathtaking and changes its look throughout the day. Very easy to access and Andrew was available as we needed (but we didn't really) 10 minute drive to Hermanus with all its activities Upstairs room has a big bath which I thoroughly enjoyed. A gorgeous peacock roams around and we were also visited by some cute rabbits. Cons: Outside table chairs and arm chairs could be more comfy. Coffee in the kitchen containers was stale Quite a few cobwebs around the house and microwave and dishes not cleaned well. In fact, the microwave could use an upgrade. Pillows are too soft (again just my preference) Would've liked a warmer welcome, but that's just my preference and not a deal-breaker. I'm sure many people prefer no-contact. As a traveller I like to leave details but honestly really enjoyed our stay." ~Shact
