62 guests' feedbackHad a wonderful stay. Have a nice shower. Helpful host.
Lance is a very nice and helpful host. We had a very Lekka stay and will definitely come back again. And the timing was just perfect because the weather was nice and we even got to see some whales as well.
Close to the beach, beautiful property. The owner, Lance, is a great host, and very welcoming. Thank you so much, my family and I enjoyed our stay.
Friendly and helpful host. Place was very neat. Our visit was very pleasant.
Great location and great service from Lance.
Beautiful house and garden, and the host is very friendly and helpful.
Stay was pleasant.
The room is very private and cosy. I will go again.
It's a very cute place to stay the night. Nice cuddly and welcoming.
Was a little uncomfortable the fact that it is inside the owner's residence and we were there for a function so didn't want to go in too late to disturb anyone.
Yes, as an overnight stay.
Area very central and convenient. But the room and garden need some attention.
Lance impressed us with a warm welcome and said he had upgraded us. Our upgraded unit had no kitchen sink, the hand-basin in the TV area plug doesn't hold water (shaving and washing dishes done under a running tap: no way to properly wash dishes, which probably explains some of the dirty dishes in the cupboard. We did our best. Self-catering is tricky with no bowls for cooking in the microwave. There is one pot to use on the induction plate (no fry-pan for a nice breakfast). Fortunately, we only ate breakfast cereal there! Very weak WiFi was only available in a small part of the unit. There was adequate hot water in the shower and clean towels. The bed was cosy in spite of really cold weather. A big concern was parking in the main street. No secure parking. We had some items we couldn't unload from the vehicle. Fortunately, no incidents.
The alley way access to get into the room was smelly, the garden overgrown, the garden table and chairs needed cleaning. It was not like typical self catering places, as you had to open cupboards to get to the sink (only cold water) and another cupboard to get to the cutlery and crockery. At least it had a TV, and the bed was comfortable.
The units were dirty. There needs to be some cleaning up. Bedding and towels need to be upgraded. Breakables must be replaced. It was chipped, cracked and dirty.
Stay was nice.
The units are incredibly dirty. I had to go buy cleaning supplies and clean the kitchen and bathrooms before we could use them. The bath was taken. The dishes were dirty. It doesn't look like the place has been properly cleaned and only the beds have been made. Does not display at all as in photos. Walls and cupboards are dirty. Bed linen and towels old and different. We even had a gray PEP blanket on one bed. I am shocked that one can rent out a place in this condition. Units are not serviced daily. Breakware chipped and full of cracks.
Very weak. Vehicle must sleep in the street. Room is dirty. Spiders on the walls. Braai facilities are dirty and full of dust. Incomplete cutlery in the room.
It was very unpleasant.
Unit is well located. Close to sea and Fernkloof. Neat and well equipped. Only the parking is along the main road if that would bother anyone.
No more needed.
Just need a showcase so the floor does not get wet. The kitchen needs more crockery.
We stayed in the bachelor pad, which has a lovely private entrance with a table and chairs under the trees for our use, and plenty of old-world charm. We were very glad about the gas stove, so we could cook during load shedding, and candles were also provided. The accommodation is very central, so just a quick drive to the wonderful market and beaches, as well as local shopping centres.
Hermanus is beautiful and I will definitely visit there again.
Kitchen facilities are few.
Place needs attention, but well located. Not enough cups and cutlery according to the number of people booked.
Toilet and sink leak. Vehicle practically stops in the street.
There weren't any issues. We even took our dogs and were very happy with our stay. The only problem we had was the weather. Thank you to Lance for being so accommodating. I will definitely book with him again should we come out that way.
403 On Main makes you feel at home. Our room was equipped with everything you would need in self-catering! The area is safe. On the main street, but after 7 in the evening you hardly hear a car moving. Walking distance from the sea - swimming beach is about 5 minutes' walk. Close to everything but still not in the busy part. Lance made us feel welcome. It is bigger than the pictures make it look.
Lance is a wonderful host and made sure we were well taken care of. The bachelor pad is stunning and very well taken care of. The location is central and you can access most attractions and restaurants very easily. Will definitely be coming back!
We enjoyed our stay very much. A few meters walk from the beach. Enjoyed the beautiful views of the mountains. Would definitely stay there again.
Owner hospitable we had our own private unit with own kitchen and balcony would definitely go back again!
Although the view was worth the money, the place needs attention and a good cleaning. I wanted to check if there was anything under the sofa and the amount of dust that had collected there told me that only the top was being cleaned.
Happy with place!

Friendly reception - such nice people. However, the fridge was not on - milk was sour. Will benefit from garden care, varnishing of all wooden structures and getting the general front view neat and orderly. Main house has a window and can be seen in - therefore that room must also appear neat and orderly for guests who cannot overlook it when they check in. Porches are packed with loose furniture and don't create a good impression. Not for a guesthouse. Rooibos tea can be added to the choice of tea/coffee. The building style is unique with beautiful woodwork and stained glass windows. It can be a beautiful place for a single person who only wants to spend one night, but needs urgent attention.
The whole place could do with renovation and the garden needs tending. No pieces of furniture on the porch. Very disturbing if carpets are being vacuumed in the main house or the geyser is on.
Definitely value for money. Ideal location, on main street, but not too busy to rest and sleep. Walking distance to beach. Very clean and tidy.
Friendly and comfortable owner, with a peaceful atmosphere in the residence.
Very nice and clean place but needs some attention. No dish soap and dishcloth was dirty. Bathroom mats were horribly dirty and bathtub was dirty and full of marks. Toilet had dead spiders. Lots of broken tiles and it cut my foot underneath.
What you advertise is not what you get. The bathroom rugs are dirty and bugs were found on 1 of the beds between the sheets.
Pleasant. Will definitely visit again. Nice and quiet.
Cheap and clean. Will go there again.
Although it was probably on the list, one's car is not behind gates, and this is important to me for the future, especially if one is on holiday.
The front garden is very untidy and needs attention, as it breaks down the overall experience.
Thank you, Lance, it was pleasant to stay the night at your place. My sister and I felt safe the entire time and the facilities were neat and clean. Thank you!
Welcome was good. Lance is very friendly. Owner can pay more attention to the cleanliness of the unit as well as the garden. If the unit is renovated we will definitely recommend it.
Friendly staff. The rooms are clean, but the garden is overgrown and the parking is not behind a gate.
No secure parking, overgrown garden and furniture old and broken.
403 on Main was an ideal location for us.
Excellent location with very good service.
Slept well, but only after removing the spider from the shower! Younger people won't have a problem with the stairs, but older will! The area is beautiful and close to everything if ever you need anything. Also close to whale watching spots. Excellent location even though it's in the main street.
Very centrally located. The road also goes to Stanford and Goose Bay, which is a must for any tourist. Would definitely recommend the place. Although the secure parking is in the driveway and there is no fencing.
The accommodation is good for just sleeping over, not visiting there long term.
