We received the most friendliest service, when we arrived. The owners Jenny and Sebastian was so welcoming and me and my two kids really enjoyed it there. They offered us a delicious breakfast Saturday and Sunday and throughout, they told us about a little book store in the area that we visited three times! It was like heaven for my daughter who love bookstores. We took walks on the beach which is just opposite and took lots of photos. Manor on the bay is definitely a place I would go to again for a weekend stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, which exceeded expectations. The accommodations were stunning, with breathtaking scenery, immaculate rooms and thoughtful touches. The owners generously stocked our fridge with complimentary refreshments. Their warm hospitality, kindness and attentive service made us feel right at home. Exceptional experience deserving of 10 stars. We eagerly anticipate our next visit.

Our stay at Manor on the Bay was very lovely, a warm welcoming from the owners Sebastiaan & Jenny. Would love to come back and stay here again! Excellent sea-views from the hotel! Walking distance to main Camp's Bay. Nice and clean rooms. Cozy private pool area for the guests.

Seb and Jenny are the best hosts ever. Went above and beyond when illness struck and glue for loosing the wing mirror. Our room No 12 was superb. Views were amazing, super comfy queen size bed and pillows, spotless clean and the little kitchen was an added bonus. Jenny, your poached eggs are superb as well as other breakfast goodies. Your advise on the Wine Estate in Somerset West was the best we have ever been to around the Cape. Can't pronounce it as you said it totally different to how the English do xxx. Thank you again and wishing you all the best at the Manor. Lesley and Kevin x

This is a very nice and beautiful guesthouse, with very friendly and helpful hosts. We will not repeat everything you read in the description but some things are worth to mention. It is very close to the beach, which is sandy but there are rocks in the sea. Within easy walking distance hou have a really large beach, in the weekend crowded with families picnicking and relaxing. Nice atmosphere. Sebastiaan and his family are very helpful to make your stay as comfortable and relaxing as possible. They are always in for a chat so you feel very welcome. The pool is small but very refreshing and is a plus. We liked it very much and will come back when in the neighbourhood. Very good location to explore the beautiful coast to Hermanus. Must do !
