• Octavia Savvides (10/5): Beautiful and Comfortable - Wow! The location was amazing and the views are exceptional. The unit itself is gorgeous and well maintained. It was clean, comfortable and very well equipped, and the information provided in the booklet made everything easy from arrival to departure. Communication was clear and helpful. We would definitely stay here again.

• Yulia (10/5): -
• Anina (10/5): Beautifull apartment on ground level with stunning views over the bay - The apartment is on the ground floor with a lovely piece of lawn in front with a swimming pool and views over the bay. There were loads of whales in the bay as it is breeding season. The unit is close to many restaurants and quaint little shops and we walked the famous beach path and swam in the tdal pools. There is secure parking underground in the basement. nothing
• Wenrui (9/5): - 地理位置非常优越，出门就是Gearing's Point，可以看鲸鱼、蹄兔！
• Niamh (10/5): - The views were spectacular and the place was really clean. Had everything that you would need, like a home from home. We arrived with 2 nights booked and we immediately extended our stay for an extra night. Fantastic location for walking to restaurants and bars. We could watch whales from the balcony. Parking was extremely secure. Highly recommend, really enjoyed our stay and Candice was amazing to deal with throughout.
• CARL (10/5): -
• Kobus (10/5): The location of the property was excellent and the facilities Top Notch. - Our Host was very friendly and helpful.
• Elsebi (7/5): - The trash bin to small. For the price every day room sevice should be included
• Lucie (10/5): Un emplacement parfait très luxueux - Emplacement. Luxe
• Steyn (10/5): This is a gem!! - Beautiful interior, very well equipped, the best location! Amazing views!
• Van (10/5): Exceptional -
• Hayward (10/5): Great place to stay and relax. The best location in Hermanus. - Location, ocean view, space. Always thought this place was part on the hotel next door. Very little actually. Dishwasher instructions hard to comprehend.
• David (9/5): Enjoyable and relaxing. - Location Coaches stopping outside to drop off tourists. Limited communal outside sun loungers.
• Jeff (7/5): Fell slightly short of expectations - 74 On Marine Three week stay in 103 Guests - retired couple, frequent global travellers, wintering in the Wester Cape to avoid the cold and damp in England. Prior to booking for February 2025 we researched extensively while renting a house in Hermanus in February 2024 and identified this sea front block with pool opposite Gearings Point as meeting our criteria. Check in was smooth and efficient with the manager liaising by WhatsApp as we drove down from our previous accommodation in Paarl and greeting us on arrival to show us round. The apartment is on the ground floor with direct access to the communal gardens and pool from the raised terrace accessed from the lounge sliding patio doors and is just as the photographs show it: spacious with a through lounge, dining area and kitchen and two huge double bedrooms each having their own large en suite bathroom with both shower and bath tub. The huge double bed is comfortable and there is ample wardrobe space and a safe for valuables (awkwardly located on the floor of the wardrobe and difficult to see to programme on hands and knees). There is also a separate WC. There is a small outside space to the rear, off the kitchen, where laundry can be dried, though a tiny expenditure on a new washing line is overdue! The kitchen is well equipped with quality appliances, all in working order. Storage space is plentiful and crockery and glassware, utensils, cookware and dishes for food preparation, cooking and serving are plentiful. The only items in short supply seem to be cutlery which apparently disappears. During our 3 week stay housekeeping visited weekly, changing the bed and replacing towels, tea towels, etc. Essentials such as washing up liquid, dishwasher tabs and spray to combat the inevitable ants and flies were plentiful. There was an initial supply of olive oil, salt and pepper, tea, coffee, sugar etc. With the weather mostly sunny and ranging from around 18 to 28C degrees we did not use the air con Most importantly to us was the pool: we specifically booked because there is a pool, shared only by the apartment block. However, the water was far too cold for comfort and we understand it is some ten years since the air source heat pump packed up! This will prevent us from re-booking for 2026. There are 6 apartments plus a penthouse in the block, assuming full occupancy potentially 20-30 guests, yet only 4 sun loungers and no space for more despite the garden having room to construct a larger decking area and equip it with more beds or chairs to accommodate them. The sunshades are very difficult to put up (and one is broken so almost impossible) so we were very glad of the help of Cuthbert, who looks after the grounds on weekdays. The terraces/balconies get the sun only briefly, early in the morning, meaning that if one wants to sit somewhere warm, or to sunbathe these 4 loungers are the only option. The outdoor wooden table and 4 chairs on our terrace were well past their ‘best before’ date and ought to be replaced with updated and much more comfortable ones. IF the pool had been usable (ie: warm enough to swim without immediately needing a hot shower) AND there had been sufficient comfortable seating outside in the sunshine to enjoy then we would have had no hesitation returning next year. Overall the apartment is as advertised but it is showing its age and the bathrooms at least should be refurbished as a priority. The managing team are efficient. A special shout out for Eloize who dealt with anything in her scope quickly and courteously but who is limited by the apparent reluctance of “the body corporate” to spend on the property despite most of the apartments appearing to be let out to holidaymakers thus generating a return on investment for the owners. During our stay owners of the penthouse property arrived with their dogs. To our consternation it appears they consider it wholly appropriate for them to 'toilet' by 103 entrance.
• Nicole (9/5): Superb -
• Vivienne (9/5): Wonderful stay. Wish we could have stayed longer. - Great location on Marine drive. Very quiet and peaceful despite proximity to road. Property was extremely comfortable and well equipped. Bedrooms were huge with loads of wardrobe space. Bathrooms very modern and spacious. Lovely terrace to sit and watch the sea. Great views from main bedroom and lounge/dining area. Kitchen had everything you could possibly need. Pool was just a few steps away across the garden. Warm welcome and introduction to apartment from property manager. Nothing!
• Leon (10/5): Fantastic - The location, the comfort the efficiency of the agent and the staff, the layout Nothing
• Paul (9/5): Superb -
• Vivienne (10/5): Extremely Comfortable - Awesome location, & excellent facilities. Home away from home.
• Barend (10/5): Enjoyable, memorable and easy access - The location of the property is excellent and close to the lookout and next to restaurants. I went with my elderly mother and we felt safe at the property and had a warm welcome from the host. It was the highlight of our breakaway. The host arranged a wheelchair for us and it made our trip more enjoyable as we were more mobile to visit the shops around town. Thank you again. It was all round a very good location, neat and tidy house and nothing at this point to complain about.
• Gail (8/5): Very good -
• Karen (10/5): Wonderful experience - not applicable nothing
• Peter (10/5): Super break for whale watching! - Super Lage, toll ausgestattetes Apartment War alles ok!
• Rika (10/5): Exceptional -
• Russell (10/5): very nice, no complaints -
• Kim (8/5): A great, central apartment with views - The position was fantastic, and it is a large, and comfortable apartment with great views. Also lots of secure parking, a bonus. The main bedroom was spacious, lots of cupboards, and a big, comfy bed. The big negative for us was that there were two, tiny single beds in the second bedroom, with single linen that just covered the top of the beds.. Fine for children, but not adults. These should be 3/4 beds at a minimum, and the linen should be size double.
• Juliet (9/5): Superb -
• Joan (9/5): Excellent property, finished to a very high standard. Great location on the sea front and easy walking distance to shops - Location. Pool. Nothing.
• Janet (10/5): High quality apartment with stunning sea views - The location of the property is perfect with panoramic views across the bay. The apartment was fitted with everything you could need and was of high quality. We enjoyed swimming in the pool. Nothing
• Mairi (10/5): Beautiful, spacious apartment, with incredible views. - A beautiful spacious apartment in the heart of Hermanus, beautiful sea views and within walking distance to all shops and restaurants. The apartment has everything & more that you will need to make your holiday memorable. There is a gas braai available, which is great if you don't feel like going out. Having to leave
• Mary (6/5): Satisfactory but not as good as it might have been - The view Steep steps to the apartment and pool .
• Hennie (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jodi (10/5): Magnificent 2 night getaway, check in was short and sweet. The apartment was spotless with endless views! Our stay was m - 5 stars for this apartment! Nothing
• Denise (7/5): We love Hermanus and come back every second year. - Loved the position with beautiful views over the bay and a very central location close to shops and restaurants. The DSTV decoder stopped working as the owner had not paid. Alerted the agent at 19.00 but she never did anything until after 22.00. The tv remote in the bedroom didn’t work. The agent promised to bring batteries but she never did. The agent offered to book us on a whale watching boat trip. Firstly she booked for 4 pax in name of Dennis, instead of correctly booking for 2 pax I.n.o. DENISE. When we got there in the morning firstly, they had no booking for 2 ino DENISE, and secondly, the trip was cancelled as the boat had a diesel leak. No-one contacted us to let us know - what a disappointment and also, a waste of our time! Please provide instructions for the oven - we could just not get it to work, maybe it’s broken!! Otherwise, the property was lovely and spacious with every amenity one could want.
• Greg (9/5): Superb -
• Lynette (10/5): Great Place - It was a beautiful and comfortable apartment! Beautiful view! Close to all the lovely restaurants.
• William (9/5): Enjoyable and relaxing weekend . - The location was great and the facilities No coasters,salad bowl. Sliding door gets stuck
• Anthony (10/5): Exceptional -
• El-anne (10/5): Exceptional -
• Elnika (10/5): Exceptional - Just needs a casserole for braai, cutting board and a better bottle opener. Duvet covers in main bedroom wasnt ironed.
• Travellersven (10/5): Best view one can have in a really modern and clean apartment centrally located. - I loved the host who was both friendly and really super excited about her property. The property has the best view one can have in Hermanus. We saw whales in the bay from our lounge. The property is modern and super central and has all the amenities one could wish for. The sheer amount of cupboard space is insane. I loved staying here and will definitely choose this next time I come to Hermanus. Nothing. Everything is great here.
• Riana (9/5): Sunshine the whole week in August was part of jackpot apartment. - Quiet. View. Easy to walk to restaurants. Like the coffee machine. We eat own breakfast looking over the sea. No other place will be good enough after this Only for ouma en oupa: Help with luggage😁
• Wilma (10/5): Relaxed and Special. - The property is beautifully decorated and have a fantastic view. Clean and comfortable with all the amenities you require. We can’t say anything negative about the property
• Jc (9/5): Superb -
• Tariq (10/5): Exceptional -
• Glynis (10/5): Exceptional -

• Angelique (10/5): Exceptional -
• Greg (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jessica (7/5): was a good stay and lovely apartment - Great & Easy location. Walking distance from the center. The self check-in wasn’t what we arranged and was a bit tricky. We ended up not knowing where everything was and what parts of the apartment was working and not working with load shedding. We stayed in a few different places over two weeks and we were met by all the host showing us around the properties especially with load shedding.
• Andrew (9/5): an amazing apartments enjoy the pleasures of Hermanus! - location, location nothing
• Lindsay (8/5): Very good - beautifully furnished and spacious! na
• Dietmar (4/5): Great location but lacking in cleanliness and renovation - - Centrally located near restaurants and shops - Generously sized rooms - Sea view - General lack of cleanliness: e.g. unclean dishes/cutlery/crockery, bed linen, towels, rusted and greasy barbecue. We resorted to rinsing what we’d use at high temperature and not cooking meals in the apartment at all (defeating the point of booking an apartment at all). Although one additional housecleaning was offered via text messaging, we had already rewashed, sanitized and re-cleaned, and lost confidence in the cleaning service and felt generally uncomfortable. - Some furniture, fixtures, fittings and doors are aged and reflect wear and tear through previous use. Investment in renovation is lacking.
• Janet (7/5): Good - Location + View One emergency light provided - insufficient during load shedding. Front patio light not working Dirty beach/pool towels left in kitchen. Looking for missing cutlery left in the dishwasher.
• Neel (10/5): Exceptional -
• Charles (10/5): Exceptional -
• Rory (9/5): Superb -
• Soobah (9/5): Superb -
• Saad (10/5): Exceptional -
• Hanifa (9/5): Superb -
• Amy (10/5): Exceptional - fantastic location and felt very safe. good parking. This is not the property’s fault, but during load shedding, the alarm would beep continuously unless you addressed it at panel. It would be nice if this could be pre set as muted. it was inconvenient in the middle of the night load sheds. apartment is convenient on first floor, but the view is not quite as good as the upper floors. however, the apartment was exactly as pictured.
• Henk (10/5): Exceptional -
• Christo (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jodi (9/5): whales did not disappoint. loved the space the outdoor seating. bird calls and whale grunts. loved it here - spotlessly clean. bay views great amenities. loves heated blanket. walking to restaurants and shopping your buses park out front for brief periods. a man was singing for money across the street early and evening hours
• Portia (10/5): The stay was absolutely brilliant, the property had all the things we needed. -
• Minette (9/5): Superb -
• Van (8/5): Very good - The location is excellent, off street parking is very helpful and it's a very spacious apartment. The view from the patio is beautiful. The linen and towels were of good quality. I think the coaches in the lounge needs replacement. I also think that the apartment needs a little bit of attention to detail, for example the one picture in the lounge kept falling off the wall.
• Hartmann (10/5): Exceptional - That apartment has everything you could need, it is clean and spacious. Also very comfortable and in a perfect location. We would definitely be back soon.
• Soma (10/5): Amaing - The assistant was really helpful,cute and respectful . To be honest everything was really exceptional and amazing nothing
• Verified traveler (10/5): - What a fabulous apartment in an amazing location, wished we had stayed longer. Easy walking distance to bars, restaurants and shops. Suzanne was very helpful and ensured we made the most of our stay. Highly recommend.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Great location easily walkable to local restaurants, very modern and spacious apartment well equipped. Suzanne very helpful.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Perfect location short walk from restaurant shops galleries and coastal path. Beautiful walks along coast with whales in view early December. comfortable, clean and spacious accommodation.
• nicholas (10/5): Superb - Superb 5 star self catering accommodation, very clean , spacious and modern . Fantastic location, numerous restaurants bars and shops within safe walking distance, secure underground parking . Caretaker on site all day and the manageress is also contactable should you need her . I would strongly recommend renting this apartment.
• Heather (10/5): Lovely apartment in a superb location - When I arrived at the hotel Suzanne ,the agent was there to greet me and to show me the ropes ! She gave me a very warm welcome and made me feel at home . The informing booklet included photos of the keys ,everything was colour coded so pretty fool proof . I had a really lovey stay and felt completely safe staying in a ground floor apartment on my own . Loved the view and saw a whale as soon as crossed to the other side of the road . What more could you wish for ?
