    Nothing, everything was great.

    We enjoyed our 2 night stay at The Vishuis. The location was perfect and we could walk to the waterfront where there are many restaurants and the clifftop pathway. We enjoyed the town and especially walking along the cliffs. The location is quiet and Marc is a hands on host meeting you upon arrival and showing you around your suite and how the gates work. It was fabulous to have secure parking this close to the ocean so we did not need to move our car. Marc was really helpful with restaurant and activity recommendations.

    We absolutely loved our stay in this cosy yet surprisingly spacious room—it was beautifully decorated with a relaxed boho vibe that made it feel instantly welcoming. Everything we needed was thoughtfully provided, and the outdoor area was the perfect spot to unwind. The location couldn’t have been better—just a short walk to great restaurants and the lookout, making it both convenient and scenic. A truly lovely place to stay!

    Comfortable stay in a stylish cottage in central Hermanus.

    There is just a plunge pool - if you want to swim then a 5 minute walk gets you to the marine pool which is a tidal pool on the sea front.

    Marc met us and showed us around the apartment which was gorgeous - huge living dining area and comfy sofas - very stylish - contemporary but comfy. Short safe walk to the cliff path and into Hermanus to eat. Book if you want to eat out in Hermanus - the kitchen facilities are excellent but we wanted to eat out and our preferred places were fully booked on a Tuesday night

    A fan in the bedroom please - and a flat sheet (the winter duvet was too thick and very hot)!

    The location could not be more perfect, within walking distance to the little town, restaurants and all the quirky coffee spots etc. The decor and attention to detail truly exhibits the owner's passion for this little place.

    We had no air conditioning in the property and so was a bit warm during the night.

    Fantastic stay at The Vishuis. Property is really nice and comfortable. Location is ideal within Hermanus. Marc gave a great introduction when we arrived, not only telling us everything we needed to know about the property for our stay, but gave really good suggestions of things to do in the local area. Would definitely like to return in the future.

    I liked everything about my stay at The Vishuis!

    The room was super spacious, and looked out onto tranquil setting. It was in a great location - just a few mins walk from Checkers supermarket, coffee shops and the main restaurant and shopping 'hub' of Hermanus. A very quiet spot and facilities were excellent. Marc gave excellent recommendations for places to eat and things to do in the area. Loved my stay at The Vishuis.
