Very nice golfcourse. Enough to play for. Beautiful accommodation. Little bit “big” for personal treatment. Nice pool and wellness area. Gym is ok. Restaurant ok . Not fine dining, casual. Our room was more than excellent. King Suite 531. We view on pool and hole 8 and estuarium.

My wife and I stopped over at Arabella Golf Resort and Spa for three nights. The staff were absolutely amazing, the food brilliant, the breakfast exceptional! In addition I had an accident involving me to be rushed to the emergency section of Mediclinic Hermanus. The duty Supervisor realised the urgency, and treated me whilst the ambulance was en route. Quickly fixed up, the staff Supervisor at Arabella personally drove to collect us and take us back to the hotel at 1.30 in the morning. A very well managed hotel with professional staff that use initiative. Great work Arabella, we will be back. Highly recommended. Thank you!!
