Mosselberg on Grotto Beach

We loved this property. Our room was very comfortable, clean, and quiet. The location is fantastic. Just steps away from a beautiful beach and you can easily hook up to the cliff path for a wonderful walk into town (about an hour). A real highlight of our stay. Unfortunately I was sick during our visit so couldn't do as much in the area as I hoped but staff was very helpful and accommodating

Fantastic accommodation cannot recommend enough! We stayed in the southern right suite which was incredible. Watching dolphins swim over the most delicious breakfast. Great restaurants close by, safe area and lovely staff we would love to come back can highly recommend.

Das Guest House ist sehr schön und leicht erhöht gelegen mit einem herrlichen Blick über die Bucht. Vom Hotelzimmer aus kann man Wale beobachten. Das kleine Hotel ist sehr familiär und persönlich. Sehr sympathisches Personal. Das Zimmer war sehr geräumig und sauber. Wir haben uns in diesem Hotel sehr wohl gefühlt.

Amazing experience. Superb location superb staff

A gorgeous spot. Fantastic beaches. Quick drive into town if you want. Excellent breakfast served each morning. Staff were lovely. Room spectacular space, great aesthetics, views, bed, sheets - all of it very special. Walk to a couple great restos.

Everything was perfect

The staff was very nice and very helpful. The views of the beach and ocean from the hotel and our room were amazing. Even though it was far away, we could see whales out in the ocean from our balcony! The beach was only a short walk away. The breakfast was great. The common spaces were really nice and comfortable. We stayed at 7 different hotels, all very very nice, in our almost 3 week trip of South Africa, and our room here (the Southern Right Suite) was one of the best. Very large with a cool bathroom. Hermanus is a very nice town with spectacular scenery.

What a fabulous find. This is a private villa with 5 beautiful rooms. It is a short walk to the nicest part of Grotto beach, gorgeous sand and very few people. In our opinion much nicer than staying in downtown Hermanus and only a 10 minute drive. The service was outstanding and breakfast first class and cooked to order. There are 3 dining spots we tried within a 5 minute drive all different, great value and nice food. Dutchies (on the beach), Lizettes and Hobside Down (great pizzas). Never normally rate accommodation but this was exceptional. Thanks to the amazing team!

Lovely setting on Grotto beach but atmosphere was soulless and indifferent.

Wunderschöne Unterkunft! Aussicht vom Zimmer auf das Meer war richtig schön. Unser Zimmer war offen, gross und hoch, sehr sauber und cool eingerichtet. Am Abend als wir vom Abendessen zurückkamen, erwartete uns ein Portwein im Zimmer. Frühstuck ist grosszügig und lecker, Eierspeisen werden frisch zubereitet.

Amazing Location!! We could see whales from our balcony!

Fantastic hotel in the heart of the town centre. Incredible service, even picking us a takeaway breakfast box for our early flight. Room was a little small, but everything else was exceptional.

Eine der besten Lodges in denen wir bisher in SA gewohnt haben. Tolle Lage, geniale Architektur, super Zimmer (hatten Southern right Suite mit Kamin und tollem Blick auf Walker Bay mit Ihren Walen).Sehr nettes Personal. Individuelles Frühstück und sehr empfehlenswertes Dinner von Koch Julian. Bei Ihm kann man seine Wünsche für den nächsten Tag anmelden. Er holt dann die Lebensmittel früh auf dem Markt und zaubert abends ein 4Gänge Menu für zZ umgerechnet 26 Euro!!!)

Etape en famille très réussie. Merci pour ce très bon accueil et cet endroit de très grand confort

Das Hotel ist absolut ein Traum! Der Service wunderbar! Es gibt nichts, was nicht gestimmt hat an dieser Unterkunft. Das beste aber ist, das man vom Bett (Sugarbird Suite) direkt auf das Meer sieht! Man hört keine Nachbarn, kein Zimmer liegt nebeneinander. Die Lage ist einfach traumhaft. Man fühlt sich wie zu Hause hier. Man wird bekocht, auch wenn man nur zu zweit ist! Das Essen ist fabelhaft. Abends gibt es immer einen Schlummertrunk auf das Zimmer, einfach toll. Wir haben den Aufenthalt in vollen Zügen genossen.

lovely room (although up a flight of stairs) friendly staff wonderful breakfast

My husband and i were celebrating our 10th wedding anniversary whilst on this trip. The guest house was very modern but a building doesnt make your stay....... the welcome we received was abrupt and we were left to carry our bags in from the car park around the pool and up a flight of steps. I got the feeling that management must have some serious trust issues, we were asked to sign a disclaimer saying that if we didnt look after our own stuff and something was stolen, it was our own fault..... leading me to believe they couldnt trust their staff. Then when we went into the room, there was a sign that said as guests, we were only entitled to take the complimentary slippers and NOTHING else, what sort of guests have they had in the past? Thieves? Breakfast was a disaster. The man that took our order got both breakfasts mixed up. We got 2 different menus. I had requested gluten free bread and when i asked to confirm it was, the man just kept saying "no it free, no charge" all through breakfast. Both my boiled eggs and my husbands poached eggs were hard after having been asked what way we would like them. There was a girl hanging around the breakfast room, like a prison warden, i could not see her purpose because she was equally clueless as the man. There is no modern technology in the room. Its not 5*. The owner waited until we were checkin out to address our comments. We paid approx £147. for night and got compensated with a bar of soap...

We had a lovely stay -it started with being upgraded to the best room with the most stunning view of the ocean. Room very comfortable and we had a roaring fire in minutes.

Extraordinario desayuno. En verano debe ser una maravilla. Para el invierno muy lejos de todo y la habitacion con poca calefacción, pasamos frío.

I got a special rate when I booked 5 months in advance. I approached the owner on arrival to ask if my husband that is doing the Cape Epic, can stay with me and my two boys in the room. He has a paid for camper van in The Epic rider village, but a room will be much more comfortable. He had to confirm with someone what the rate will be. I went to her an hour later, when she told me she was very upset with the rate I paid through the website and that there are people at the hotel that is paying a lot more than me!!!! What an insult, I have never felt so unwelcome. She also told me that our breakfast is not included, so I showed her my reservation and her response was that she will have to check it first. We also had to wait 40 min for our room. Dinner was served at R375 per head, I asked her if she has something for the kids, she said the steaks are cut the same thickness so the kids will have to pay the same price!!! I think she should remove her little board that kids are welcome. Will never go back to this place. View awesome, owners not.
