"We (two couples) stayed only one night, but the hostel was well placed to get to the sea (just 100m) and to the harbour where we ate in a very good restaurant recommended by our hosts. Some rooms are filed in a separate 'garden house' (when you step out you are right in a small garden) and are well equipped. The bathroom could be nicer, but everything was clean and in good condition.

Unfortunately we couldn't take advantage of the nice garden and pool as the weather was too cold and windy 2nd week of November. "

"My partner and I enjoyed our overnight stay at House on Westcliff. Our room and bathroom were superbly clean and well equipped. We enjoyed being close to the cliff walkway and had fun meandering down to the main restaurant area. We were extremely disappointed that the jacuzzi was removed as we were looking forward to some relaxing hydrotherapy after a tiring day spent watching whales frolicking in the bay. The hosts were very friendly and the breakfast was a real home-from-home treat. We'll be back!"

The location of the guesthouse is very pleasing - although you don't have a sea view, you'll find the cliff path just across the road. It is also near the old harbour. The rooms were clean with quality linen and heated towels. Breakfast was delicious and the African decorations added a special touch to breakfast. Good coffee, good attentive service and a very comfortable stay."

There was a gas shortage in the area so it was a little cool and a fire in the gorgeous lounge area would have been greatly appreciated. The rooms were clean spacious and very comfortable. The ensuite bathroom was also very spacious and we loved the heated towel racks. Breakfast was yet another highlight! The table was like a work of art with African bowls and setting and the food delicious and a wide variety. Would highly recommend this place and would definitely return one day. A warm welcoming and friendly host."

"We spent two nights with Mira in Hermanus. She made us extremely welcome and could not have done more to keep us informed of local restaurants and general facilities in the area. The bedrooms were very comfortable and well appointed. We particularly liked the fact that all the rooms had their own separate entrances. Breakfast was delicious with a wonderful range of goodies offered. This review comes from someone who runs her own bed and breakfast establishment in the UK and so I do have very high expectations! I would highly recommend the House on Westcliff to anyone wanting to stay in Hermanus."


"Just Lovely"

(United Kingdom) Ms Fair

"We stayed for 2 nights and thoroughly enjoyed it. The atmosphere was so peaceful and it was so nice to walk out and onto the cliff walk in minutes. The breakfast was fabulous. The room was so pretty and comfortable too. Thoroughly recommend it. Thank you!"

"Our journey from Cape Town to Hermanus on November 21st 2007 was during some of the worst rain the area had experienced in fifty years accompanied by serious flooding. However, when we finally arrived at 'The House on Westcliff' we were given a warm welcome and shown to our charming, well appointed room.
Breakfast the following morning was excellent and our hosts could not have been more attentive. I do wish the weather had allowed us to explore the beautiful gardens surrounding our accommodation. A one night stay was not enough!!

"We spent a night at Westcliff this July (2007) and found it to be everything we hoped for! We were welcomed by the lovely Honey, who was taking care of the guesthouse whilst the owners were on holiday - she was so friendly and welcoming and even came out in the rain to find us as we had gone for a walk without an umbrella! The room was very comfortable and we were given the use of a cot for our son. Breakfast was delicious and the main house itself beautifully decorated, the garden was also gorgeous. Thank you honey for a special stay!"

My only criticism is there was a poor choice for vegetarian breakfast, ie no veggie sausages or beans, and the eggs were not free range.
