184 guests' feedbackThere are no words, it was incredible, everything was perfect. The cleaning lady is a gem.
We stayed at Hannic's for two days. It's tastefully and practically furnished. Very well equipped. Would love to stay there again.
Outstanding. Please visit.
Bitterly neat and everything your heart desires.
House is very well equipped with everything needed for a getaway. Very stylish and modern. We had a very nice stay for the week.
Apart from the water it was a fantastic stay. Extremely clean and tidy. Will definitely book again.
Beautiful place that just felt like home.
Excellent! Very neat and well equipped. Will definitely see you again at Hannic's Retreat!
Very nice place with lovely view of the mountain. Beautiful porch overlooking the mountain. The house itself is very well equipped with comfortable furniture and good beds and linen.
The bookings and communications were exceptional. The house is in excellent condition and extremely comfortable. We will definitely be back.
10 out of 10 for a wonderful, gem of a place. 5 star accommodation.
We had a great stay and enjoyed it very much.
Awesome place, very comfortable and clean. It was a pleasure staying at Hannic's Retreat. Will definitely go back.
We had a lovely weekend in a cozy house! Everything one could think of needing.
Lovely accommodation, facilities of the highest quality.
We enjoy Clarens every time we are there. Walking, hiking, many restaurants to choose from and good accommodations. Hannic's Retreat is one of them. We enjoyed the 2 days in full.
Our stay was awesome. We were in Clarens for the beer festival. Really neat unit, super clean, everything was catered for. Great view. Checking in was simple, as was the key drop off.
8th time at Hannic's for a weekend break and really love it there.
The house is beautiful and has everything and more that you could need for a wonderful holiday.
Had everything you would expect in your own home.
Super clean, safe accommodation. Hannic's Retreat feels like home.
My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our short stay. The home is beautiful and one can see lots of detail and care went into it to create a home-from-home feel.
There was nothing we lacked. Everything was clean and tidy. Everything worked and there is an inverter, we didn't even know about LS. We will definitely stay here again when we visit Clarens. And, the Jimny rally was a feast!
Looks like the pictures. Neat, clean, with everything you need and good security.
Hannic's Retreat was a treat! Large house furnished with everything you could need. There is a nice sheltered garden where the children could play. It is walking distance from the town square. The house is spotless and beautiful. Our preferred accommodation when we visit Clarens again.
A beautiful place with everything and more. Highly recommend Hannic's Retreat. Will definitely stay there again.
Perfectly furnished with warm blankets (electric) and the sherry by the fireplace was a bonus!
For sure the best place in Clarens to stay. The house is located within walking distance of the town center and is well furnished. Nice warm blankets and fireplace for the winter, even sherry treats too. Will definitely visit there again. House is clean and tidy and owner is very friendly and helpful. Hannics Retreat is a beautiful house and very beautiful views and a tranquility for the soul.
The personal touch was great! Towels with Hannic's name on them, the cleanliness, homely.
Clarens is a beautiful place, loved Hannic's Retreat. Clean, safe, beautiful house. The kids loved the place as well. House is fully equipped with everything one needs.
So nice and cozy furnished.
The house is particularly well equipped and clean.
Fantastic stay! Hannic's Retreat has everything one needs for some time away from home. So nice clean and tidy. Pure white linen, comfortable mattress, electric blanket for the cold. Even a heater in the bathrooms. The inverter means that you don't even have to look at the schedule for load shedding. Full DStv. Gas fireplace to further dissipate the cold. Beautiful decor with paintings and photographs for a homely atmosphere. Alarm system for peace of mind. Very clear communication with extremely complete instructions how the alarm and gas fireplace work. We don't come to Clarens very often, but will definitely stay here again.
Very clean and tidy, as well as affordable can definitely recommend!
We were 2 adults and 2 children and had a really nice stay. The location is perfect and the place is very homey. We will definitely book here again.
Beautiful unit, with everything you need! The unit is neat, clean and luxurious, and nice and spacious, especially with two small children. It is very safe, and the alarm system makes you feel more at ease! I have to say the dishwasher was definitely a bonus! Beautiful view from the porch/braai area! We will definitely visit you again soon!
The place is very spacious and super clean. Everything you could need is there. The inverter for the TV and rechargeable light bulbs throughout the house during load shedding was a big plus, as was the full alarm system for peace of mind. Would stay there again anytime.
Couldn't be better. Have everything you needed for a relaxing time - even a converter - so it wasn't totally dark when the Eskom load shedding started and could destroy the evening - Thank you!
Cleanest and neatest accommodation we have ever stayed in. Good value for money. Bonus is an inverter that keeps the power going during load shedding! Will definitely come again and not stay anywhere else.
Excellent stay.
Everything in this unit is perfect! It is beautifully clean with everything one could need. I would recommend it to everyone.
Well equipped. Pretty. Tidy. We are definitely going back again.
Clean, tidy, well upgraded, everything you need, would definitely recommend.
Very clean and tidy!
Beautiful, well equipped house. Heating required for rooms. Electric blanket is not sufficient in freezing cold rooms.
Clarens is great peaceful place. Love the versatility of the house.
Was easy to find and the location is very central. There is a lot to do in the area if you have enough money it will suffice for a short break.
Nice stay in the well-furnished house. Neat and clean. Sorry for the dirt road in front of the house which is a bit busy and dusty.
We had a great time.
Perfect for intimate gatherings. Clean and beautiful.
Hannic's Retreat is within walking distance of the town, extremely well appointed with all the conveniences, neatly furnished, and comfortable. We will definitely stay again.
Very neat and clean. Nice stay! Can't say anything negative. Can recommend it for sure. I'm coming there again!
Inverter was great with the loadshedding.
Hannic's retreat is clean, tidy and very fully equipped. It is located within walking distance of the town square. Provision has been made for power outages with lights and a gas stove. We had a great stay!
The house is perfectly located, walking distance from the town. It is very comfortable, beautiful detail inside and every comfort in the kitchen. You can stay there for a long time. It feels like my home.
Beautiful location and felt safe at all times. Bed linen and everything in the kitchen top quality. Thank you very much.
Best location and house very clean. All the facilities you can ask for.
Beautiful place with everything you need. Nice braai area and full DSTV to watch good sports.
We had a lovely 2 nights at Hannic's Retreat with our 2 kids! Clean, fully kitted and a lovely garden and braai area!
We were pleasantly surprised by the elegance with which the place is equipped. Had a great time and would like to stay there again in the future.
Cottage is comfortable and central. Recommends!
We stay here often and will continue to use the facilities.
We had a wonderful time in Clarens and our stay at Hannic's Retreat contributed greatly to the wonderful experience. The place is beautiful, spacious and everything you need is at your disposal. It's tastefully furnished and the attention to detail is noteworthy. We will definitely be back! Thank you very, very much!
Hannics retreat was a treat. The house is tastefully furnished. The kitchen is fully supplied for self-catering. They have a pod coffee machine. Just bring your own pods. They have a gas fireplace that kept us nice and cosy. It was a luxurious stay and we will definitely book it again.
The house is well equipped and tastefully furnished. The photos definitely need to be replaced as the house has new furniture here and there. The braai area is delicious, toasted on the stoep. It's centrally located, walking distance to town. I just couldn't have discovered the third bedroom's underfloor heating.
Good value for money. House kitted well with all you need for your stay and more. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be back if we ever visit Clarens again.
What an incredible experience. The house is located within walking distance of the town centre. House is equipped with everything and more. We really enjoyed the fireplace and warm blankets. Beautiful view from the rooms and nice porch with braai. Good memories were made. Would definitely recommend and stay there again. Thank you for an unforgettable few days.
Wonderful stay, will definitely use Hannic's Retreat again. Close to everything.
Excellent value for money. More than we expected. Comfortable with so many luxuries.
The accommodation is good. Unfortunately, the roads to Clarens face a problem in terms of poor maintenance.
Future guests should note that only 2 of the 3 rooms have underfloor heating. The geyser is small for 6 persons to bathe or shower, especially in winter.
Extra mile was taken to make our stay a pleasure - it felt like a cosy home with thoughtful touches. Electric blankets saved the day because the cold front decided to blow in. Well-equipped kitchen. Easy access to town and trails, parkrun. We will be back.
Will visit there again for sure. Everything you need is there. The fireplace creates such a nice atmosphere for the cold evenings. Super clean and beautiful.
We will definitely stay here again. Well appointed, perfectly located, well priced and very tidy. Most beautiful view and manicured garden. The warm blankets and fireplace left the cold behind.
Very cute place and will definitely go there again.
It was the perfect place to spend an amazing weekend with friends.
We go every 3 months and always enjoy visiting here. Definitely will again.
Fantastic place, the place will become an annual institution for visits to Clarens.
Beautiful place. Clean, nice with all the amenities. Rooms fully equipped with crisp bedding and there was no need to even share a bathroom as there are two and we were two couples. Would have liked to stay longer. The service was also of high quality. Would highly recommend the place.
We would definitely book here again, but would like to stay a bit longer to do things around Clarens. Neat, clean and spacious. All you need.
Our family really enjoyed it. Very neat home with everything you need. Great value for money in a beautiful setting. Will definitely come back. Thank you very much.
Hannic's Retreat was awesome, clean, location great and it had every you need. Will definitely come back soon.
Been at Hannic's 7 times. Enjoyed it very much and will be back again!
Very nice family cottage with good amenities. Would recommend it to anyone.
We have to thank Dewald and Fran for their willingness to deal with every problem that might arise. The place is well furnished and a lot of effort has been made to make you comfortable in an environment that can get really cold. Would recommend Hannic's Retreat with confidence.
All of the underfloor heating worked and kept us warm. Bathrooms were clean and the water nice and hot. The Nespresso machine was there as advertised. The only issue was a lack of Wi-Fi which was unexpected. Otherwise, great spot.
It was a first for us in the village of Clarens. What an incredible experience. The stay was fantastic and we will definitely come back again.
We really like the home setup. Very nice and spacious visiting setup. Braai area is covered and big enough. Walking distance to shops.
Hannic's Retreat is tasteful and has everything you need. Wish could stay there longer! Will definitely book the amazing place again.
Best guest house we have ever stayed in.
Great, friendly service from checking in to checking out, I have to compliment the cleaning staff, not often do you find so cleanliness. The house is well stocked for self-catering. Will definitely recommend to friends and family.
The only criticism/suggestion I can make is that the house is a bit cold because the sun cannot shine on the veranda. Maybe consider trimming one of the trees by the gate to promote sunshine on the porch. Only a suggestion.
Hannic's Retreat is exceptionally well-equipped. It was spotless and comfortable, with a view to the mountain as added bonus.
We arrived late afternoon and our pick up of keys was pre arranged and easy to locate. The house was spotless and very comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our night and were sad that we did not have more time to spare to enjoy Clarens and the house and all it offers. We will definitely book here again in the future. I enjoyed the fact that we had 3 rooms as we were travelling with my daughter and son who are in their late twenties so having the privacy of their own space was welcomed. I highly recommend Hannic's Retreat.
The location of the house is ideal. You have everything you could possibly need. This is a value for your money. Would go again anytime and recommend to everyone! Hannic's Retreat is a must in Clarens!
5 stars. The photos does not do it justice, home away from home.
Would definitely recommend the place was very nice. The owner was very helpful and really made an effort. Only the alarm that didn't work with the button when we pressed the button it was panic and the security came out, they will just have to fix it for the future if you really have a problem.
Great accommodation. Great value for money.
It far exceeded our expectations. Great accommodation.
Very clean and comfortable, will go back for sure. Some of the best in Clarens. Everything needed is provided. Would definitely recommend it.
There is everything you need in the house to stay there. From the underfloor heating to the gas fireplace and nice braai on the stoep. Heating in the bathrooms and fans for the summer days. Really enjoyed staying there. Just want to bring to your attention that the handle of the toilet in the master bedroom sometimes does not move all the way back.
We had a great stay and especially appreciated the dishwasher!
Beautiful, clean has everything one requires for self-catering. Breathtaking view of the mountains. We loved it and enjoyed our stay. We'll definitely be back.
This is one of the best places I have ever stayed in my life. There is everything you can think of to need, right down to a dishwasher and a Nespresso machine! It's clean, tidy and was like staying at my own home. Dewald left us a personal welcome note with a bottle of JC le Roux about it being our birthday when we arrived. I will never stay anywhere else when I go to Clarens and would recommend it to anyone! Thanks for an awesome weekend!
The house had everything you could possibly need in a home away from home. Absolutely top-notch. From the underfloor heating, indoor gas fire, electric blankets, bathroom heaters, to the welcome glass of sherry and the fully equipped kitchen (including a dishwasher). The house sleeps 6 but there were more than 6 knives, forks, etc!!! It is within walking distance to the town center but is in a lovely peaceful area.
We had a fantastic time in Clarens. Largely because we were able to stay in this fantastic house. Hanic's Retreat has everything and the house is very comfortable and stylishly furnished. Nothing was missing and we felt safe and with the cold the house was nice and warm and comfortable. We will definitely stay here again. Most beautiful view and close enough to walk!
The place is walking distance from the town center and in a peaceful environment.
Look no further for better accommodation. The booking process and check-in is easy and smooth. The house is spotless and comfortable, durable and stylishly furnished. The dishwasher is a bonus and there is plenty of cutlery and crockery. The heaters in the bathrooms are a lovely treat. Fireplace walks in the cozy living room and porch walks with the beautiful view of the mountain further ensure you a pleasant stay.
What a well appointed house, everything you can think of is there, fireplace, underfloor heating, electric blankets, dishwasher, sanitisers everywhere, hot water, lovely shower and bath, bathrooms can heat. It's an absolutely wonderful peaceful environment, oh, I wish I could always stay there, everything is so clean and tidy. Many thanks to the owner and letting agents.
Nothing is lacking at Hannic's Retreat. Highly recommend.
We thoroughly enjoyed Hannic's retreat. We wish we could sleep another night. Beautiful house in a beautiful village.
Wife wanted to buy the cottage!
It's a shame we only stayed one night, because here you can feel at home! Very clean and tidy, as well as value for money. Next time we come for a whole weekend!
Hannic is a beautiful house in Clarens. Perfectly located and has everything and more that one needs. The view of the mountains is amazing and perfect for relaxing. I would definitely recommend Hannic and stay there again.
I highly recommend. Excellent customer service. I would stay there again.
It's a home away from home and our 5th time there.
Very clean and tidy. good facilities. centrally located.
We had such a great time in this home. Sunny brunches outside with a view of the mountains combined with cozy nights around the fireplace made for a perfect family getaway weekend. Wish we could stay longer.
Hannic is a very cute place. Will definitely stay again. 3 bedrooms, very nice clean place, quality fresh linen, electric blankets, and gas fireplace. Beautiful garden with the most beautiful view. Conveniently near restaurants. Contactless accommodation worked well.
The house is very well furnished with a nice large lawn. Very neat and clean, comfortable beds and quality bedding, towels and furniture. Nice quiet environment and braai area on the porch.
Neat and clean.
Super clean and tidy and excellently furnished. Owner went out of his way to answer any questions. Was a blissful 3 days. Hope we can do this again soon!
We really enjoyed the weekend and the house with its lovely porch and braai area definitely contributed to that. You will see us again.
Super neat getaway house. Incredible attention to detail has been paid to make guests feel welcome. We will definitely visit again and definitely recommend.
Was ongelooflik lekker. Plek is so mooi en het regtig alles wat mens kort en meer. Sal definitief weer gaan!
Hannic's Retreat proved to be a luxurious surprise and value for money. Our family spent a relaxing and very comfortable stay in this self-standing house enjoying our privacy, whilst in the heart of Clarens. We hope to visit again.
Nice comfortable spacious, convenient location. Electric gate alarm, felt safe. All the amenities you require.
Beautiful, spacious rooms clean and tidy.
Hannic's is well appointed! You just want to stay for weeks! Even the smallest detail has been attended to. The veranda is lovely and even though it rained a lot we could still enjoy it outside.
Very tidy, quality linen, beds, towels, etc. House is beautifully located and very well equipped. Can recommend Hannic's Retreat any day.
I can recommend Hannic's Retreat. They even left a bottle of champagne in the fridge for my 50th birthday.
The house is well equipped with everything one might need. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay there again if the opportunity arises. The lock-up garage is a bonus for Gautengers!
Neat place. We rested!
The house is centrally located, very close to everything and very nice and clean inside.
Very nice, comfortable house with everything you need. The place was clean, the decor is very nice. The welcome jerry was a bonus. We had a great time on the large porch.
Pleasantly surprised, very conveniently furnished. Will stay there again anytime. Thank you very much for a very neat house.
Brilliant! Will definitely visit again.
We will definitely stay there again. From the time I booked until now I have received excellent service from Dewald, the owner. What you see in the pictures is what you get.
Hannic's Retreat is a very comfortable and beautiful place. Close to shops and also close to walking routes in town. Can definitely recommend and will stay there again myself. Thank you very much for a wonderful weekend.
It was such a treat staying at Hannic's Retreat. It's clean, comfortable, cosy and absolute value for money. Thank you for the stay. We will be back.
Definitely a place to visit again. Will recommend to everyone. Neat and well equipped. Value for money.
Incredible, quiet, neat place, breathtaking views of the mountain.
We had a lovely stay in freezing Clarens. The electric blankets, heater in the bathroom, and quality bedding compensated for the cold. I would recommend Hannic's Retreat to anyone and although we only stayed one night it is certainly suitable for a longer stay. Everything is neat, of good quality and well equipped.
Hannic's Retreat was tidy, well equipped with everything you need. I can definitely recommend it and will stay there again if we visit Clarens.
What a divine little spot!
The house was super neat, modern and has everything you need!
An amazing little getaway, Hannic’s Retreat has everything you need for a home away from home!
We really enjoyed our weekend at Hannic's Retreat. The house is very comfortable, well appointed, fresh, clean and with in walking distance to the towns shops and restaurants. We will definitely book Hannic's Retreat again when we return to Clarens and recommend it to family and friends as it is a wonderful place to stay in Clarens.
We had a wonderful week in Hanicks Retreat. A home away from home. It is very secure and peaceful. The place is comfortable and clean.
We enjoyed Hannic's Retreat a lot. In a cool picturesque Clarens, the warm blankets and gas stove were a great spoil.
Hannic's Retreat is highly recommended.
Hannic's Retreat is fully equipped to meet every need. The place is tastefully furnished, the beds are of high quality and we felt very comfortable and thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Clarens.
Beautiful, comfortable and spacious and all you need self catering loose standing house. About 1 km away from festive town on a gravel road. Mountain view from front large veranda. Gas fireplace, underfloor heating, heater in both bathrooms, electric blankets and lots of everything. Loved our weekend stay. Thank you.
We had a wonderful experience and the house exceeded all our expectations.
This house is better equipped with quality furniture, kitchen utensils and vanity items than any similar accommodation I ever had in South Africa. It was a pleasure to stay in this great accommodation. Imagine, a Premium DStv package, with perfect reception on all channels. Very good value for money. Walking distance to the town square. Excellent housekeeping! Thank you.
It will be my first choice if I visit Clarence again.
Recommended!
Very nice. Will recommend. Looking forward to going again.
Everything was clean and tidy.
Pleasant, clean, neat, convenient location.
We were really impressed and if I visit Clarens again I will stay at Hannic's.
We were there on our honeymoon and the place was really pretty.
Lovely, clean house with a gas fireplace in the lounge, underfloor heating in the rooms and a heater in the bathroom.
We felt very spoiled to visit such a beautiful place, with everything needed to make it a pleasant stay: Cleanliness, security, quiet environment, value for money and location close to the town center, within walking distance.
The house is conveniently located close to restaurants and shops. The place is very well equipped and really value for money. We will definitely use Hannic's Retreat again.
There are no words to explain how great Hannics Retreat is. It's the perfect home away from home where the parents can relax while the children enjoy themselves running around outside on the beautiful green lawns. Thank you, we will surely be back.
We really enjoyed the weekend. Hannic's Retreat had everything we needed, was very tidy and the service was fantastic! Will go back there anytime.
Perfect self-catering accommodation with perfect location. Painfully neat and clean, everything works, well equipped, and very beautiful. You see us again.
There is not just one word to sum up how nice it was at Hannic's Retreat. The photos on Google are true, but cannot capture the peaceful atmosphere. It was a piece of heaven! And coming from the Vaal Triangle which is flat, it was so beautiful to see the mountain from the porch. The Retreat is also very well looked after and I thought it was quite new until I looked at the guestbook. And yes, it's a shame that people don't control their children! The house is very well furnished! And with style! We chose Hannic's Retreat by mistake. But I think in terms of location, it is very well located. We will definitely book there again when we go to Clarens.
Nice and big lawn for the kids to play. Ideal for a nice weekend away.
Everything was perfect except that there were no sharp knives - just one bread knife. 8 braai tongs, but no knives!
I can recommend Hannic's Retreat to anyone. We will definitely go back there!
Unbelievably spacious, clean, beautifully cared for and equipped, centrally located ...and ... and ... and! Would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others. Absolute value for money!
We had a wonderful stay. House is very well equipped with everything you need. Beautiful mountain view from the lovely porch. We parked our car and walked or cycled everywhere we wanted to go. Very central.
This place is definitely a home away from home. There is everything you might need for a nice visit. Enough of everything to not have to wash dishes all the time (I have a little brother killed in places that have exactly six of everything and nothing extra). It was cold outside, but wonderfully cozy inside with underfloor heating and electric blankets on all the beds, as well as blankets in the living room by the fireplace. The house is very well located, and has a beautiful view of the mountain from the porch. There is really everything one needs for a comfortable stay for 6 people.
This place bowled me over. Perfectly appointed and very tidy, I've never experience anything quite like this. My family and I were very impressed! I recommend this place with confidence!
A great place to get to know Clarens. Close to everything but far enough away from it all to appreciate the peaceful Clarens atmosphere.
The underfloor heating, fireplace and electric blankets were a lovely treat on a cold evening. The space is adequate for a family with teenage sons. Everything we could need was there. Will definitely stay at Hannic's Retreat again. Thank you.
We had absolutely no problems from booking to check-in and check-out. Close to everything and go enjoy the sunset at the Golden Gate on Saturday afternoon. Everything in the guest house was neat, perfect and spotless. It was a weekend getaway that felt like a week but which I will definitely extend by a few days next time. Thank you very much!!
Felt like a home away from home! Neat and clean with everything you need!
Good location, nice view, excellent facilities, beautifully decorated and very spacious.
Lovely house complete with own kitchen and appliances and large TV. 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. House is secured by alarm. Explanation is lacking. Has a company that rents out little service. They refer you through to the owner who is not reachable. Garage did not open. No WiFi in this house. Nice town within walking distance where you can go safely in the dark. Nice meal in Steakhouse on Churchstreet (With WiFi).
