My wife and i had the pleasure of spending an evening over at Aloe Guest House. We had such a relaxing time away from home, that we will definitely return for a longer stay. The hospitality shown by John and Lesley was amazing!

Lovely accommodation. Beautiful room, furnishings. Excellent personal and friendly service. We stayed in the 2 bed apartment. Great for families with young children too. Very central and easy walking distance to Hermanus town.
