The Guardian Hermanus Luxury Self-Catering Hemel en Aarde Valley

This is our second stay we find it excellent two years ago hence our return stay this time

Pros: The views were exceptional, the house was very comfortable and well kitted out, and we were entertained by a pair of blue cranes and their baby who recently adopted the garden. The hosts are extremely kind and helpful

Cons: Can’t think of anything!

Unsurpassed

Pros: What was not to like ? I want to mention just three outstanding features. The saltwater pool of 12m to do my laps each morning, with the sundeck with lounges for during the day. The outside open air living area, where we spent almost all our time, reading, relaxing, and dining next to the braai. And of course, enjoying the magnificent view over the Onrus river and the Babylon mountain range And why do I call it unsurpassed = better than any other : Derek and Shanon. They made us feel at home because they were neighbours, not just hosts.

Cons: Two small minors : the driveway into the property (downhill) is not for the faint hearted. Although there are 4 ways in the house to make coffee, an coffee machine for drip coffee is missing.

Can’t wait to go back!

Pros: Everything, location is stunning. It’s well equipped and comfortable with everything you need. Derek the host was always on hand for any questions and we left feeling like friends. Wonderful stay.

Cons: Nothing, it’s perfect!
