What was there not to like about 138 Guesthouse, it is situated just on the edge of Hermanus and right on the shores edge. The rooms were spacious and well laid out. Superb staff and very very helpful. Check-in was effortless and they very kindly booked us a restaurant to eat at as we arrived on Christmas Eve. I would definitely return if I were in Hermanus again. There are a several lovely restaurants nearby and the mall is a short 5 minute drive away too. Superb highly recommended.

There was no part of the accomodation we didn't like.

We recently stayed at this wonderful guesthouse and was blown away by the incredible service and inviting atmosphere. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect, especially as it was just days before our wedding. They made every effort to accommodate us, making our time there special and relaxing. With delightful surprises like the yummy cherry to end our day on a sweet note and the delicious chocolate left on our bed during turndown service, accompanied by a thoughtful note with the next day's forecast. Plus, the view from the guesthouse was absolutely breathtaking, adding to the overall experience. I highly recommend a stay here. The breakfast was delicious, the location was perfect - not too close to the shops, but just far enough to feel relaxed. It truly made for an unforgettable pre-wedding getaway.

This guesthouse is perfect for a beach-body who loves a scenic, tranquil and relaxing getaway. There is a trail for walking, jogging and/or running too! The sunset is gorgeous from the balcony and can be enjoyed with the wonderful sound of the waves too. It’s absolutely breathtaking and the staff is super friendly as well. Desré, the owner, goes out of her way to make you feel at home. She ensures that you are constantly kept updated with the loadshedding times, to avoid disappointment as well as the daily weather reports to properly plan your day/s too. The breakfast is wholesome, delicious and the presentation thereof is stunning too. I would definitely recommend anybody and everybody to come here! You won’t regret it.

The property lies perfectly at the seaside near Hermanus. The house is wonderful and splendid - as is the overwhelming breakfast, freshly prepared in the morning. Competing with another place in Cape Town our best breakfast we had traveling South Africa! And made just right for you from owners and staff. The room is not huge but very tidy and nice for sleeping. It had an ocean view but just from the side... well, we just stayed there for 1 night.

The room could have been bigger/better, but the kindliness of the owners and the fantastic breakfast made up for everything. So it is still a 9!

As a stop on our tour of the Garden Route, we stayed at 138 Marine Beachfront Guesthouse. We received a very warm welcome, Desire generally exuded a special friendliness and gave us a few helpful tips for exploring the area. The guesthouse is very clean and tastefully decorated. You can see the attention to detail. There were fresh flowers in the room and the breakfast table with a view of the sea was stylishly set. The breakfast itself was excellent. Thanks to the overall positive atmosphere, the guesthouse was recommended for another stay.

Best breakfast we have ever had in SA. Views from breakfast room and upstairs lounge lovely. Easy parking Great staff Access to cliff path VERY easy.

Television was small and in a cupboard. No air con Also whilst room lovely thought we would have seaviews from our bed. We had to stand at the foot of the bed to get a sea view from a small window. One of our joys in SA in a number of locations was to wake up and see the sea - not possible in this room. Having said that it is a lovely guest house with exceedingly high standards. The staff are lovely and very helpful

We stayed here for our wedding night. Sabine welcomed us, the room was beautiful with a card and petals. The view from the room was stunning with full facilities. Plenty of parking around the back. The bathroom was spacious and clean. Coffee facilities in the room allowed us to have coffee on the stoop facing the ocean. We were welcomed in the morning with an amazing breakfast setup. Fresh fruit and coffee with the opportunity to order a cooked breakfast. Just amazing.

Nothing to not like.

The guesthouse is situated in an amazing location right in front of the ocean and is decorated beautifully! What we loved most about our stay was the lovely staff. The ladies made us feel so welcome and were always up for a chat. They were really helpful with their suggestions and tips and always had an answer to all of our questions. We were sad we only stayed one night and will definitely be back. Thanks again for everything!!

Breakfast was good and the location is excellent! Give our thx to Merryl Ann for being excellent at her job and for her friendliness, helpfulness and for assisting us with all the relevant information we required iro restaurants, beaches etc. What a lovely person she is :-) Thank you ;-)

Location and a specially the friendliness of the staff :-)

This is the best, most comfortable, most accommodating Guesthouse/B&B we have ever stayed at. The attention to detail from air fresheners in the bathroom through bed turndown chocolates through a departure gift, etc. are delightful. The sumptuous breakfast, excellent coffee and service at tables looking out over the sea and waves were a delight in themselves . Desre and Hester excellent managers. I can’t say enough about how pleasant our stay was.

I can find no fault in anything.
