The Thatch House Hermanus

We really enjoyed our stay here. The location is stunning and very peaceful. The staff especially Rory were all very helpful . We normally like to eat out in restaurants but the food here was so good we ate here twice during our three night stay. Drinks in the lounge before dinner were so relaxing and we were never rushed to sit down for dinner. Some of the rooms overlooked the lagoon but we had a mountain view which was picturesque with comfortable lounge chairs on the patio to take in the view . We have rebooked for next year but increased our stay to five nights .

The Thatch House Boutique Hotel is hands down among the top 10 hotels we have ever stayed at. We love the location—quiet and close to the water. The rooms are wonderful. The quality of the hardware is fantastic. Everything is very well maintained. The staff is wonderful, friendly, and very customer-oriented. The food was almost too good, so we certainly added some kilos to our waistlines. We had a fantastic time and can’t wait to be back!

The most beautiful thatched boutique hotel set in a very peaceful and stunning location overlooking the lagoon. Heaven!! It is about 5kms outside Hermarnous so not far and taxis available if needed. Our room, The Waterfall Suite was beyond beautiful. Honestly, have never stayed in such a beautifully decorated and clean room overlooking the stunning lagoon. The bedding is wonderful, the bed huge and very comfy. The balcony area was amazing and even had a personal sauna. The pool area is again very beautiful and peaceful set in fabulous gardens. The dining/lounge/bar area is also sublime. The food was very nice. A big thank you to Kim and all the wonderful staff who without exception were warm, friendly and wonderful. They couldn't do enough for you. Thank you. I am so sorry but i have forgotten the name of the lovely lady that looked after us most days. So sorry!! We stayed three nights and was very very sad to leave. If you want an amazing and memorable experience I would urge you to stay here. We have no hesitation in recommending The Thatch House and will most definitely return. Thank you again to everyone.

We were in Hermanus for three days at the beginning of March and had an incredibly lovely stay at The Thatch House. We really liked not only the unique location on the lagoon and the peace and quiet that comes with it, but above all the warm welcome and caring service from all team members. It was more like visiting friends than staying in a hotel. Many thanks to Lynn and Rory and all the others for their efforts. The small number of rooms and the attention and care of the individual team members made the visit to The Thatch House an unforgettable experience. The variety of drinks and the quality of the food were great. We will definitely visit The Thatch House again when we are back in the Hermanus area.

Such a beautiful hotel. Small and private with stunning views. Play area, tennis court, pool, hot tub, kayaks, golf. The rooms are huge and very luxurious. You will need a car to get into Hermanus. Staff very friendly and helpful. would recommend.

In a very beautiful and tranquil location lies Thatch House offering very spacious and beautifully decorated suites. We had reserved to suites Fern and Lagoon, and let our kids have the largest and fantastically luxurious Lagoon Suite. The Fern Suite was still very large and nice and while it didn't have the sea view of the Lagoon, it had a nice outdoor area with views of the impressive mountains. The hotel is made to feel more like a private house where you are a guest, and we especially appreciated that we never had to sign any bills when having dinner or ordering something from a bar. They also have a nice "honesty bar" which we never had time to try. Food was really good although not spectacular. I don't think we were more than 15 guests, 3-4 families, which helped making this feel much more homely than a regular hotel. The staff is very friendly and professional, and you get the feeling that they have fun together, which is always a sign of great places to stay. The place is a bit isolated so either having a rental car - like we did - or using taxis is a must if you want to try some other nearby places to eat or visit nearby vineyards. I can wholeheartedly recommend staying here, especially for those longing for peace and quiet in a beautiful surrounding.
