Schulphoek Seafront House

Staff are excellent....

Hidden gem Nomfundo and her team are fantastic. Service excellent. View spectacular and dinner and breakfast 5 star. A hidden gem.

Wir hatten einen wundervollen Aufenthalt in diesem Hotel! Die Lage ist einfach unschlagbar – der Blick auf das Meer ist atemberaubend und sorgt für pure Entspannung. Das Personal war außergewöhnlich freundlich und aufmerksam, sodass wir uns von der ersten Minute an willkommen gefühlt haben. Der Service war erstklassig, und das Frühstück ließ keine Wünsche offen – eine große Auswahl an frischen und hochwertigen Speisen. Wir kommen definitiv wieder! Das einzige Manko, die Anfahrt ins Hotel, da man an einer nicht sehr schönen Gegend vorbei kommt. Im Hotel fühlt man sich aber definitiv sicher! Fahrservice in die Stadt von Hermanus vorhanden!

Our room was beautiful with a spectacular view. The staff could not be more helpful. The shuttle bus was a bonus that we didn’t expect. The food was delicious. The only minor downside was the colour (grey) and size of the pool - although it was always spotlessly clean it appeared a bit murky. However, it wasn’t - it was just that it was painted grey.

Beautiful interiors, a truly lovely (and lavish) breakfast, comfort + style, plus warm, friendly staff = FIVE! 'Schulphoek House' certainly earned a top score in my opinion for all the aforementioned and more. There is a small plunge pool, plus a spa and sauna, the gardens are both pretty and functional, you are steps from a coastal walking path, and there is a shuttle that will get you into - and back from - town as needed. [Thank you to Albert for the punctual, safe driving!] Add on that Hermanus is one of the premier whale watching spots on Earth, that you are a short drive from insanely beautiful beaches, plus a 15-minute drive from a world-class wine region ('Hemel en Aarde') and you're winning everywhere *The only query I had with this place is: location. It's somewhat oddly located on a quiet, small suburban street approx. one hour's walk (or 15 minute drive) into central Hermanus. That said, there are some restaurants and other services at this western end of town. All said, highly recommended!

The staff at Schulphoek welcomed us with open arms and big smiles. For the four of us (Heleen & Frank, Petra and Ronald) it was our very first visit to the Hermanus region. Our travel agent suggested staying at the Schulphoek and we glad she did. Wonderful, spacious rooms, great views, huge breakfasts and shuttle service to/from Hermanus. Big thank you to all staff members for making this 2 night staying very memorable. Hope to be back !
