60 guests' feedbackLovely and safe getaway.
Would recommend Steenbok House anytime. Our hostess, Phillippa, went out of her way to make everything as comfortable as possible for us, she even bought electric blankets for all the rooms when we found out ahead of time if there were any. Thank you Phillippa, we really appreciated it.
Great that each room has its own bathroom. Nice beds and good bed linen. Kitchen is well equipped. Friendly service and fantastic that it is designed against load shedding.
Nice balcony where you can see the mountain and listen to birds.
Very clean and fresh linen and towels and warm welcome and communication. Delicious fresh flowers in every room. Feels like my own home, beautiful and modern. Apartment is also equipped with inverter, so there is always light and hot water and fast WiFi.
A pleasant guesthouse with good views and very accessible to the Hermanus city centre and all the attractions. Lovely terrace with view of the mountain.
The house was very nice and tidy. Everything we needed and the hostess went out of her way to make everything comfortable.
It's in a quiet area. Especially enjoyed the silence and calm. The weather was very lovely warm.
Good accommodation, but was very dirty, floor, carpets and crockery.
The place was very neat, people were very hospitable.
Place had an inverter with all the loadshedding and people go out of their way to make it nice. Beautiful flowers in the house.
The location is quiet and secure but within easy access of shopping areas, the beach and whale spotting sites. It is, too, only a short, always scenic drive to many places of interest. There are many cafes and restaurants to choose from catering to diverse tastes.
It was indescribably delicious. The people were friendly and therefore your "home away from home".
Phillipa was friendly and helpful. The place is surrounded with the tranquility itself and well equipped. Will go again.
It was a nice break away from home, we could have a good time and relax.
The unit is very neat and has everything you need. Phillippa is a very friendly hostess and made our stay very pleasant.
Friendly welcome, very clean and comfortable close to town.
The most delicious shower facilities. Extremely comfortable beds and bedding. Lovely porch with mountain view. Kitchen very well equipped. Centrally located. Dogs could move safely.
Phillipa made us feel very much at home and Steenbok Huis was beautiful. Everything we needed and more. We are really looking forward to our next visit there! I recommend Steenbok House to anyone who wants to explore Hermanus and to those who want to relax. It was also wonderful that our woolly-haired child was welcome.
So peaceful to sit on the porch in the mornings and evenings and listen to the birds. Lovely apartment with everything you need. Very central, especially for parents who come from far away with children who have to play sports in Hermanus. Very close to Hermanus High and Primary School. Quiet peaceful neighborhood.
Amazing stay. Hosts were very helpful, made us feel very welcome, even offering advice for safe running routes. Within walking distance into town yet far enough from town to be peaceful and quiet. Accommodation has everything one needs and was very clean. Accommodation is exactly as shown on website. Will definitely visit again and highly recommend for anyone wanting a little break away from city life.
Lovely, peaceful place. Phillippa is very friendly. Will definitely go there again. Accommodation is neat and well furnished.
Stunning area, calm and relaxed outside of the tourist chaos but very central to easily access all tourism attractions, from the New Harbour to Grotto Beach!
Great central location - 5 mins to the main town. Phillippa was friendly and welcoming. She was also quick to reply when we had a question. Safe and secure garden area which the kids could explore. WiFi worked perfectly. Would recommend and happily book again. We appreciated the clear communication from Phillipa prior to our arrival.
The area is very safe and close to the shops.
Phillipa was on hand to give us a friendly welcome and her mum even provided us with a camp stove and flask in case loadshedding got in the way of things. Lovely quiet area, just what we needed to unwind.
Steenbok House was nicely central for all the activities we planned. It shares an entrance with the resident family.
The host was friendly and welcoming.
Lovely location and spacious with a stunning view.
Very nice and neat place. I will definitely recommend to my friends.
If you are looking for a break from the city or just everyday life, Steenbok House is the place to go! I am definitely going to Steenbok House again, it is a wonderful house with a beautiful view. Perfect location, close to everything. Phillippa is extremely friendly and made us feel so at home.
Had a lovely stay at Steenbok house, the hostess went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed. Would highly recommend it to anyone.
Phillippa was such a nice host, we received a warm welcome from her. The place is so neat and modern (the pictures really doesn't lie, what you see is what you get) and safe. Loved the comfortable beds, the peaceful area and the beautiful views from the balcony. I would definitely recommend Steenbok House to anyone.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Steenbok House.
A comfortable bed and a comfortable couch is very important. Well maintained kitchen and absolute cleanliness - we got it all.
Baie veilig vir honde, toe tuin waar hulle heerlik kan speel! Elke kamer het sy eie badkamer wat lekker is vir privaatheid.
Philipa was very hospitable and helpful the place was very neat enjoyed it a lot.
Owner was a very generous guest, Place was pretty neat, photos don't lie. Would stay there again anytime.
Steenbok House is a beautiful flat. Loved the comfortable beds and beautiful linen. The en-suite bathrooms were most delightful, the best showers in the world with the warmest water. Great host Phillipa and her sweet parents.
Very friendly check in, and so much appreciated the beautiful fresh flowers! Thank you Phillippa! Excellent comfortable beds, nice bedding and lovely showers , so convenient each room with own bathroom, everything exactly like in pictures. Well equipped kitchen, cleaning detergents supplied. WiFi worked fine! But bedroom doors stuck in frames and could not open from inside! No soap or gel of any kind for hand wash like expected, even in the most basic cheapest accommodation, even more so during Covid crisis. Used sponge in kitchen and very used swab. Dirty socks found in bedroom drawer! There is a security door but we were asked not to close it as it might offset the alarm in main house, so actually there is no security door. There is no secure parking, it is off street parking open to street, in front of garage that seemed to be empty . We where told that for the second half of a six night stay the garage will be available, but then at the time where told "no, the owner has changed his mind". I paid cash upon arrival and did not have correct amount. No need for a receipt but also never received the change!
The apartment is very well equipped with everything we needed. Very clean and tidy, as well as friendly owners. Would recommend to anyone.
Suited our needs to perfection.
A cute place with enough space for 4 people and everything you need to relax.
Phillipa was an awesome host! Accommodation was as good if not better than the pictures. Matched exactly what we expected. Already have a booking for December!
Thank you to Phillipa for going above and beyond making sure we are settled in and even after returning home contacting us to make sure we are safe. The pictures do not lie and we enjoyed our stay at Steenbok House. Everything was so clean and inviting, the house truly had everything we needed and so much more. The area is safe and peaceful, me and my parents will definitely be coming back soon.
Very nice place in a great location close to the centre of town. Philipa was very attentive and check in and check out was very smooth. The place has everything you could need. Definitely recommended.
The detail is remarkable. Even fresh flowers as a welcoming gift. Host is very friendly. The photos don't lie.
The accommodation is recommended because we enjoyed it a lot. The patio has a view on the most beautiful mountains. Very neat and owner makes you feel welcome.
We were very happy with the place. It is very neat and beautiful. The place has a very nice atmosphere. The neighborhood is very quiet but still close to everything. I would definitely recommend it to family and friends. One suggestion I might make is to change the cover photo to a photo of the kitchen or living area. It just gives the proper impression of the place. Besides that, it's an incredible place.
Would recommend it to anyone. It's safe, peaceful and neat.
Me and my family did enjoyed our stay. The house is clean and equipped with everything we needed. Will definitely stay there again.
I can really recommend it.
Has the basic necessities in a place that creates a homely feel away from your own destination. Thank you. Will definitely recommend.
Thank you, Phillippa, for the friendly reception and helpfulness. We stayed in a very neat apartment. Safety gate at stairs was very convenient as there was a crawling baby in our company. Very quiet area with beautiful mountain views and conveniently close to shops and restaurants. Will definitely recommend it.
Thank you Phillipa! It was a very nice weekend in your apartment. Very neat and nicely equipped. I would definitely recommend it to everyone. And we will definitely stay there again when we go to Hermanus. 5 stars for you!
We had a great stay in Steenbok House and the owners were very hospitable. It's neat and has a lovely kitchen and living area with a balcony. It's close to the town centre and easy to find.
A lovely, modern, newly redone residential unit. Very neat and clean. Apartment very safe, cars unfortunately only street parking (but maybe it's safe enough for Hermanus?). Lovely towels! Only and biggest drawback was the cold shower due to 'solar-geyser' system. For me it is unfortunately non-negotiable, I am 100% in favor of green energy, but there must be a 'back-up' system to make sure guests can have a hot shower or bath.
Steenbok House is definitely value for money. It is located in a perfect setting and is close to shopping centers as well as the sea. It's safe, peaceful and there is so much to do! Owner is also wonderful and friendly and easy to talk to. A place that can definitely be recommended.
We enjoyed our stay in Steenbok House so much. The hostess was excellent and made us feel so at home in Hermanus. She was simply our all-in-one during our time there. I would recommend this fantastic spot to anyone needing a peaceful getaway by the sea.
