My wife and I stayed in the Thatch House with our 11 month old baby. At the last minute, my in-laws also happened to be in Hermanus, unfortunately the Thatch House was fully booked but the staff were very helpful in arranging for them to join us for dinner and drinks at the hotel both nights. We had a wonderful stay and they were very accommodating of our young daughter - we particularly want to thank Michaela, who was so friendly and helpful. The hotel itself is beautiful and set in immaculate grounds with stunning views. The pool was very welcome after a hot day in Hermanus and both the restaurant and breakfast were excellent.

Perhaps the most beautifully decorated hotel we have ever stayed in. It is superb and not to be missed. Splurge for the ocean view, you won’t regret it.

Die Lage des Hotels ist einmalig, ebenso das Haus selbst. Für dies klare 5 Sterne, wie für das Essen. Mein Problem waren Insekten (nur) im Bett des zweiten Schlafzimmers und wie das Management damit umgegangen ist. 1. Manager: Die Insekten sind harmlos, wir wechseln das Bettzeug 2. Manager: Die Insekten stechen, wir müssen Chemie einsetzen 3. Manager: Durch den See sind die Insekten allgegenwertig, man muss damit leben. Fazit: Das Bett konnte nicht benutzt werden, mit ca. 200 keinen Insekten teile ich kein Bett. Das Verhalten des Managements war mehr als seltsam. Eine Entschädigung für die Nichtbenutzung des zweiten Raumes (Bett) wurde abgelehnt.

This was one the best overall experiences we have ever had. The staff exceeded our expectations in every way. The suite was more than we could have asked for, the grounds were far more beautiful in person, and the attention to detail in every matter was incredible. I would highly recommend this booking!
