"Friendliest staff I have ever encountered. We ordered the picnic baskets for dinner ( braai basket) and breakfast and the food was amazing! We will definately be back. Thank you so much."


"Absolute Bliss"

"This place is an absolute gem; it is set in such a picturesque location between a mountain and lagoon. What more could one ask for? It was truly a treat and a definite sanctuary, to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. So peaceful and secluded, the sounds of water and chirping of birds is the only melody you are likely to hear. The house is so well kept and stocked with everything one could possibly need in a self-catering place. The little things really made a difference, like the abundance of firewood for those chilly days and nights and the coffee plunger for people like us who love more than one cuppa in a day. Also the staff are so friendly and very helpful, making sure that everything was to our liking. The food was mouth-watering, everything tasted so fresh and delicious, our platter had an abundance of goodies that complimented each other so well. As a couple, this was an awesome place to just relax and reconnect with each other. Not to mention it would be a great getaway for families too. We loved our time here and would definitely return in a heartbeatÉ"


"Amazing"

(South Africa) Katherine Forsythe

"Had an amazing night in the Milkwood cottages with friends and family. Even though it was winter, cold and raining the cottage was inviting with its warm fire place and bean bags, lovely baths and luxurious big beds!"


"Beautiful"

"ItÕs a quiet and secluded sanctuary. Scenery is breathtakingly beautiful. The interior decorating and finishes is top notch and from the best I saw in self catering units. We unfortunately were only able to check in after dark and find traveling in the dark on the gravel road and trying to locate them a bit challenging. Make sure you check in before sunset and take something to avoid misquote bites. Also make sure you have some coffee, milk extra ready when you book in there was nothing in the room and you are 10km from town. "

"Quiet and sublime"

(South Africa) Jim McNamara

"Wonderful setting, blissfully quiet (flamingos aside), extremely friendly staff (and knowledgeable too - we did a 'game drive' for beach sundowners, and learned a lot about indigenous medicinal plants). Great farm-grown food, and oh my, the graceful flamingos - they squawked us to sleep at night, an..."

"Wonderful setting, blissfully quiet (flamingos aside), extremely friendly staff (and knowledgeable too - we did a 'game drive' for beach sundowners, and learned a lot about indigenous medicinal plants). Great farm-grown food, and oh my, the graceful flamingos - they squawked us to sleep at night, and then while we were in the middle of breakfast, they rose as one in a graceful arc. We all stopped to watch the awesome show. All in all, a wonderful getaway."


"Sanctuary is the right word!"

(South Africa) Rebecca Mannion

"We are a family of three with #4 on the way. We stayed three nights in the Milkwood Cottage 3. I believe we were their first guests and there were a few odds and ends not quite finished. They were quickly taken care of when we pointed them out. Beyond a few 'teething issues', this was one of the..."

"We are a family of three with #4 on the way. We stayed three nights in the Milkwood Cottage 3. I believe we were their first guests and there were a few odds and ends not quite finished. They were quickly taken care of when we pointed them out. Beyond a few 'teething issues', this was one of the best mini-vacations we've ever been on. The setting was stunning and the accommodation comfortable. The staff were universally helpful and went above and beyond to cater for our two year old. We had the most amazing picnic lunch under the trees on the side of the lagoon, all arranged for us by the staff at the Spookhaus. Hearty breakfast baskets arrived at 8 a.m. We availed ourselves of the sundowner beach trip, and my husband did the ATV trip around the farm. The town of Stanford is a gem with lots close by to do with kids. Thank you for a restive and renewing weekend. We'll be back!"


"Very good"

(Mozambique) Anonymous

"We enjoyed our stay very much, it was peaceful in the beautiful surroundings."


"Lovely hideaway, keep it a secret"

(South Africa) Ivan Brand

"The stone cottages are beautiful and the surrounding mountains and lake is just breath taking. Our stay was short and wet but still wonderful.

Will stay longer next time as there was so much we did not get around to doing (kayaking, horse riding).

Really a wonderful place for a couple ..."

"Wonderful experience"

(South Africa) Kitty Lamprecht

"What a wonderful experience! The setting, the staff and the food were all top of the range. We had the most wonderful breakfast on a deserted beach and Tania provided us with the most delectable meals and snacks. "

"We stayed in one of the cottages for 1 night recently over a public a holiday. The worst part of the entire experience was that it was JUST for 1 night only and we were all very sad to go home and wished we had more time there but we had to get back to work unfortunately.

We are regular weekend-awayers (monthly) so exploring the Western Cape is something we do quite often.

Mosaic Private Sanctuary is definitely somewhere at the top of the list of our favourite places. It is simply gorgeous. The location itself and the establishment. The cottage was beautifully decorated, everything out of the top drawer with even my favourite Rain bath/skincare products in the bathrooms. It was very spacious and exceeded our standards and needs.

There's lots of activities on the property or on the water that you can take part in or just relax at the Spa or at the cottages/rooms itself.

I will definitely love to return for several more nights and would highly recommend Mosaic Sanctuary to others. It was superb!

"Gorgeous for family getaway"

(South Africa) kristine

"The cottage is lovely and the location is beautiful. Very nice food deli, and if we had been there more than one night we would certainly have bought a food hamper. We will come with a bigger group next time."


"Well situated, very well appointed establishment in Stanford"

(South Africa) Gavin Brown and Sya Giles

"Well done to Kathleen and Breese on their foresight and tremendous focus on setting up this beautiful and complete all purpose destination on the Hermanus lagoon! It is magnificent and well worth a visit. Also, for the employment it offers to so many in this area of the Western Cape."
