We would definitely recommend AnchorÕs Rest for a peaceful getaway! "

"Our stay was absolutely amazing! The Establishment is everything you could want for a sneaky weekend get away! Clean, spacious well equipped and an amazing bed! It was a pleasure to meet Guy and we will definitely be back!"

"We enjoyed our stay at Anchors Rest. Had a lovely, peaceful stay. The facility is well equipped and we found the owners very helpful and friendly. We loved Hermanus - the cliff path was absolutely amazing!!"

"Good value for money, very neat, clean and spacious. Friendly service from Guy."

"Very comfortable."

"We stayed at Anchors Rest for 3 nights. The accommodation was pleasant and the owner, Guy ,very informative about the area. After a long hot day playing golf in Hermanus is was wonderful to go back to the tranquillity of Anchors Rest and have a swim in the pool.

We had everything in our apartment that we needed and we enjoyed Hermanus greatly - we shall go back I hope."

"Guy went out of his way to assist us with making other arrangements during our stay! The continental breakfast brought to your room in the morning is very good and worth the extra few Rand! Will stay there next time we are in Hermanus!!!"

"Very enjoyable, stayed an extra night."

"A good choice if you don't want to be in the town itself (its 2km from the centre) since its very quiet and easy to find. We arrived quite late (9pm) but fortunately called the owner and he left us the keys to collect on arrival. The room (Pebbles) is purpose built as a s/c unit so works really well..."

We arrived quite late (9pm) but fortunately called the owner and he left us the keys to collect on arrival. The room (Pebbles) is purpose built as a s/c unit so works really well, having a mini kitchen with fridge, microwave, toaster and plates etc (no actual cooker). The bed was excellent quality and room spacious and light. Recommend it for a short stay"

"The accommodation was easy to find, clean & comfy. Guy was very helpful in making reservations for our boat trip to see the whales."

"We loved our room at Anchors Rest, though we didn't get to use it much--had an early morning departure. Location is good, though not much of an ocean view. The room was great, and would have been perfect if we had been staying for more than one night--large, nice bathroom, comfy bed, nice kitchene..."

"It was an absolute pleasure to stay at Anchors Rest.Guy was the perfect host.We were treated with friendliness and it made the visit a 'whale' of a time."

"Private and quiet. Braai area a bonus. Can be highly recommended."

Information center downtown was very helpful for our stay in the area. Anchors Rest is conveniently located just outside of the busy harbor area (20 min. walk or short drive)."

"We used the self-catering unit at Anchors Rest, and found it to be neat, compact, and excellent for our purposes in a two-night stay. The owner, Guy, was very chatty upon arrival and departure, and our rooms were well-attended to."

"Just a bunch of friends and my boyfriend went up there on a whim and we had such a cool time! Breakfast was sensational and the place was perfect!"

"It was great. We were very happy with the accommodation and would recommend to family and friends."

"clean and tidy. Privacy and very good facilities. Best holiday i have had for a very long time. Will recommend to friends and family."

"Although we only stayed at this guest house for one night, we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The accommodation was superb. Peaceful and spotlessly clean, and only a short walk to the sea. Guy and Hilary were very helpful, accommodating and provided us with a delicious breakfast. We would definitely return in the future, should we revisit South Africa."

"Our stay was very good and we would highly recommend Achors Rest to our family and friends."

"Enjoyable - the room is huge and very neat. Breakfast is great."

"We had a lovely stay in Hermanus, the room was perfect and the bed was very comfortable! Guy was really helpful and the breakfasts were tasty!"

"The accommodation was the best i have ever stayed at and the hosts were amazing, nothing was too much for them

Thank you"

"Very good. Would use again."

"Anchor's Rest was fantastic. Ideal to just relax and rest out."

Our apartment was so nice and clean it was really great. Oh yes one of my highlights was the fact that the pool is a salt pool that was great. We will go back to Anchors rest again as it is really a lovely place to stay. "

"Excellent whale viewing"

"Fantastic"

"Really enjoyed the accommodation. Spotlessly clean and fresh. "

"Enjoyed it very much and the accommodation was excellent"

"We enjoyed our stay in a spacious room, nicely decorated and with all facilities. Great location for a walk along the cliff path towards the whale watching rocks. Being surrounded by ocean and mountains views, made this a special place to stay."

"Anchors Rest accommodation is Fantastic. All I wanted, a home from home, linen is stunning! Overall I would love to stay there again."

"Having travelled to various locations around the world and in Southern Africa, I would like to express my joy over our stay at Anchors Rest in Hermanus. The arrangements were made with expertise and efficiency and the welcome was wonderful. The 'loft' where we stayed on the property was 'private', which is what we wanted, and well appointed. The main room was light, airy and large. The ammenities on the same level where more than adequate and although there was no kitchen sink to wash dishes, this was taken care of on a daily basis by the invisible fairy who also serviced the rooms! The beach is only a whisper away and the views in the whole area were breath-taking. Thank you for the hospitality extended to us and we have no reserve in not only recommending this area for visitation, but also recommend a well earned rest time at this lovely establishment."

"We really had such a wonderful time here. The place is run by such a lovely, hospitable and friendly couple. This was a great surprise for my man as it was his birthday. The place is beautifully laid out, and very clean. We are absolutely certain that we will come stay here again."

"My stay was very good. I will certainly return for another visit and make use of the Rooms For Africa website to see to my bookings."

"What a comfortable stay at Anchor's Rest!

"What a comfortable stay at Anchor's Rest! Beautiful big room, comfortable bed and chairs, big screen TV (to watch the World Cup football as it was stormy outside!) even an electric blanket on the bed! The little kitchenette downstairs had everything one needs for a weekend and the private little patio with weber braai was a plus! Close to all amenities ie. centre of town, new harbour and the cliff paths - what a pleasure. We definitely recommend Anchor's Rest and as they say in the movies "we will be back"!
"

"We had a wonderful stay in the seagull's loft. Lovely clean and neat room. Staff very friendly and helpful. Would recommend to others."

"I loved the place, it was clean and very well kept and the owner is very friendly too. It was great to find a place with a pool and our room was beautiful at a very reasonable price."

"We would have loved to have stayed longer in Hermanus and therefore will be making a plan to return. Found Anchor's Rest perfect for our needs. Loved the room layout and decor, along with the enclosed courtyard which gave us a private feeling. The pool was a much needed relief from the heat and loved by the kids. Was great to relax for an hour or two next to the pool under the shade of the tree. Thank you for a wonderful stay, even though short and for accommodating us on such short notice as well."

"My partner and my 2 teenage daughters stayed at Anchor's Rest from 21-28 Dec 2013. We were in the 'Starfish' room - living room with double bed & kitchenette, small 2 bed bedroom and large bathroom.

"My partner and my 2 teenage daughters stayed at Anchor's Rest from 21-28 Dec 2013. We were in the 'Starfish' room - living room with double bed & kitchenette, small 2 bed bedroom and large bathroom. It was just perfect - extremely comfortable, well serviced and private entrance. We also enjoyed relaxing in the shade by the pool. Great access to the cliff path and an easy walk to Hermanus centre. A short drive to Onrus where the rest of our family was staying, and excellent hospitality by the hosts made this a very special holiday. A big thank you from Nicky, Gavin, Meghan and Hannah."

The guest house is situated one road back from the cliff path, and a short drive from the town centre.
The accommodation was clean, spacious, comfortable, great value, just the place to be for a weekend away. There is secure parking behind gates. Cats to keep you company.
Will definitely be going back in the New year.

"Our stay at Anchor's Rest was an absolutely positive experience. The accommodation was extremely neat and cosy, in fact, it was perfect! We were met with great hospitality from the moment we entered the premises. We will definitely recommend to both friends and family. "

"Often one has certain expectations of the place you are visiting and particularly in the age of technology to enhance the photos, etc. You are just never sure what you will be met with. Well, Anchor's Rest lived up to all its promises! My first impression was during the communication phase, when the host was polite and helpful in her replies. The directions were accurate and we were welcomed very warmly on arrival.

The establishment has a cosy feel and what impressed me most, was the fresh, clean and very well decorated unit. The tranquil garden setting invites you outdoors to maximise your overall experience, while the birds are the only background 'noise'. It was all I had hoped it would be. The surrounding/complementary areas such as the pool area and garden were well-maintained. A few of the little complementary items were much appreciated! All-in-all, my stay at this beautiful accommodation has contributed to some wonderful memories. I had a chance to rest my anchor and now I am energised to go full steam ahead!

It was spotlessly clean which always impresses us and whilst only basic kitchen facilities are provided they are adequate as long as you don't want to prepare a full Sunday lunch! Visitors can use the clean and well maintained pool and sun loungers are available. All in all, good value for money."

"Our stay was divine! We were treated with such hospitality, and the rooms are so spacious, clean and comfy. The breakfast was out of this world! There is nothing like being served with a mini buffet breakfast in bed:) We will definitely be returning."

"Thanks for the way we were treated welcomed during our stay. Everything was clean fresh and beautiful."

"We seriously loved every minute of our stay in Hermanus. We stayed in the Seagull room which we absolutely loved! It was super cute and very clean. Guy was so friendly and welcoming. He made sure to give us a map of Hermanus as well as a few useful tips on restaurants and sightseeing. We ordered the breakfast one morning which was very yummy! The only complaint we had was it did get a little chilly in the room at night, although with the extra blankets they supplied we stayed warm enough. Also you couldn't have a very long shower or hot bath because the hot water would run out quite quickly which was kind of a bummer, but other than that it was absolutely perfect! We were very impressed at how they really thought of everything to make our stay comfortable and relaxing. Definitely would go back to this place in a heartbeat!"

"Rooms are very nice and clean. The owners are very nice as well. We were offered a continental breakfast, which was up to standard."

"Very nice and clean accommodation with friendly hosts. The breakfast was really good. The location is not far away from the cliff and in peaceful and secure surrounding. All these things made my stay in Hermanus unforgettable. Thank you!
"

"Very enjoyable last night of our holiday. We were 3 travelling together so it was nice to have an access door between the rooms. Like having our own flat including outside seating area. Very enjoyable breakfast brought to us!"

"Thanks to Hillary and Guy for their hospitality. We enjoyed our stay and had all comfort we had expected. The guest house is clean and quiet - simply lovely. All the best!"

"We stayed in the seagulls honeymoon suite for 3 nights. The suite is perfectly suitable for a couple who are not on honeymoon but enjoy a stay in a bright, quiet and tastefully decorated apartment. There is a small kitchen and breakfast area downstairs with adjacent patio, so you can eat outdoors if the weather is good. Not too far from the town centre.
Recommended!
"

"Very good accommodation and very kind hosts. It is almost directly on the ocean. Close to everything that Hermanus has to offer. We recommend this B&B."

"We stayed at Anchors Rest for 2 nights in different rooms and we were very impressed with the accommodation. As might be expected the rooms were on a nautical theme and they were bright, spacious and well furnished. There was also a small kitchen for self catering. We decided on the optional breakfast which was well worth it and provided on a trolley in our own small courtyard. The location was good being a 15 minute walk along the coastal footpath from Hermanus itself. Overall good value for money.

"After an unusually trying period of coping with low business volumes, demanding relationship challenges and the like, my partner and I recently escaped to Anchor's Rest for a weekend away.
It's situation near the new harbour allowed us to wander along sea-side paths, observe harbour activity, bask in the sun, and was close enough to Hermanus Centre to enable us to take in the flea market and enjoy leisurely book browsing. Most of our time was spent at Anchor's Rest however. Here the reception, payment and other services were prompt and attentive but not intrusive. The swimming pool and garden surrounds are quiet and inviting, and the facility that we were given was very private, safe, clean, spacious, light and airy.
When braaing in our private courtyard we found that the electric rock-barbecue was slow and there were no braai tongs in the kitchenette - our only mini-complaint.
All in all this was a place where we unexpectedly discovered great comfort, a place that lent itself to our need for privacy and to de-stress and refresh, a place to enjoy the charm of Hermanus yet away from the bustling crowd.
At an amazingly reasonable rate."

"Although only there for one night, Anchors Rest surpassed our expectations. Well located for the cliff walks and Hermanus town centre, it was the ideal base for a limited stay.

A charming establishment run by a very helpful and friendly owners."

"I would really recommend this place to stay. The accommodation is really nice and clean and the location is perfect."

As for the bed I wish I could take it home it was extremely comfortable and kept my hubby and I nice and warm. All we needed to bring along was clothes and food, other than that everything else was provided for, even breakfast. Thanks Guy your friendly hospitality was greatly appreciated! See you in summer!"

"What a pleasant stay. Very neat and clean. Loved the linen! Hermanus is such a pretty town. Will go back any day. Thanks to Anchors rest for contributing to a lovely holiday."

"What a very spacious room! A lovely pool. Nice and quiet."

"Good facilities, slightly out of town location, but still walkable along the coast path. Room has all the facilities you would need and small pool is inviting. Hosts very friendly."
