We really enjoyed our stay in Herold’s bay, our host was in touch with us on the lead up to the stay and then met us on the location and helped us with parking, she was very friendly. The room had a wonderful view over the beach and we loved the convenience of the restaurant next door to our stay. It had everything we needed for our night’s stay before heading off to George airport the following morning.

Beautiful spot you just have to visit

Beautiful spot and the views from the room are amazing. Nice touch breakfast brought to the room. Restaurant on the same site is a big bonus so you can sit back relax and enjoy the seaside.

This is a hidden gem for sure. The view from our room of the ocean was amazing to see in the mornings and then at sunset. We love the communication using WhatsApp. Nice to communicate when we wanted breakfast delivered and to make dinner reservations. We left a coat in the closet and the manager held it for our return through the area 2 days later. I honestly wouldn't have remembered leaving it at all. So thankful. Breakfast was a big yogurt and ham/egg sandwich that was perfect to start the day. The restaurant on-site is perfect for dinner without traveling at night. Plenty of parking on-site. We will definitely stay here on our next trip along the Garden Route.
