Pros +
- size of room and cleanliness and outstanding service of the people working there
- Charming, clean and great location! Wonderful breakfast! Free parking and very secure!
- A huge disappointment
Cons -
- lack of some plates and cutlery which would be useful when ordering takeaways.
- Nothing really.
- We were told that we had forfeited the welcome wine and chocolates as THEY had decided to move us up 1 flight, to same floor as a senior guest.No hot water, no water pressure:- after 5 minutes bath-water was less than 5cm deep.- Showering with ONLY warm water trickling out was cold and took forever!TV & DSTV was on top of and at the back of the cabinet, so had to hold remote over head to change channels.Bottled water in room was unpleasant tasted of chemicals.Breakfast room/restaurant was separate from the hotel and difficult to reach in the rain, especially for an elderly or disabled guest.Restaurant staff weren't friendly, lunch was bland and the omelette was more like an egg-pancake or crepe!Check out was only at 11am, but we made the mistake of paying for all extras on the way to breakfast - we returned to find the door wide open, the bed stripped, all our belongings pushed to one side and accessible to everyone - with no staff member in sight!At over R14000 for 3 guests for two nights - you expect better quality and service!

Stunning antiques and vintage furniture and decor in foyer. Friendly, helpful and communicative staff. The owners made us feel so welcome. Stunning pools and gardens and most convenient adjacent restaurant. Safe parking and just far enough from business precinct to be quiet. We were most generously updated to a lovely , quiet suite with private balcony overlooking the pool/garden area.
No bar, but drinks could be ordered.
Staff. Location , the concierge Leann was so fantastic!!! I can’t say enough about how fantastic everything was!! From arranging transportation to and from the airport to every little detail. I can’t imagine staying anywhere else should I go back to Hermanus!!
Nothing. You cant improve on perfection!!
The hotel is lovely. Beds are so comfy and large! Breakfast is amazing with a lovely view of the sea.The Pool area is fabulous with a great pool bar. Over all, we had a fabulous stay.This Hotel comes Highly Recommended.
Breakfast, Room , View were superb. great value.

WIll return with the Whales.Many Thanks Misty your welcome and Hotel never ceases to amaze me. 5 stars all the way.Will be returning with the Whales Regards Catherine Cape Town
Very clean and friendly staff
Breakfast was too basic for the amount you pay
Good value for money.Friendly staffClean premise and room
Windows cant open properly.Noisy extractor fan
Big rooms and walking distance to Town.
No lounge to enjoy coffee or a glass of wine and enjoy the views.
We Loved Misty Waves,Most Beautiful view combined with the Luxury of the most Stylish Room, excellent Location. Thank you for Sharing your Beautiful Boutique Hotel with us.Deon and Denise
lovely hotel and the staff are friendly. It is value for money. They upgraded us when we checked it which was a lovely surprise. Bed is super comfortable and the room is lovely. We would definitely go back.
It would be nice is there was a shower cap and just a little cosmetic box with earbuds etc in the bathroom. otherwise no complaints.
Nice restaurant on site. Beautiful self catering unit. Safe parking. Close to town with very good restaurants. Easy check in and out. Definitely recommended.
The main bedroom has an aircon but the 2nd bedroom in the family unit has bi aircon or fan. When you open the windows you get all the noise from the street. A fan would have been very nice. Also shortage of pillows in the second room.
The experience was great!
the toilet water was running the entire time! Because the hotel was not fully booked... it would of been nice to have been upgraded or given a see view option
Good location, Hermanus centre is a short walk. The breakfasts are good with a good selection.
Nothing to add
Pillows were just hard, and the air conditioner was too small for the room.We stayed at Misty waves previously and was in the hotel itself, we expected the same, but we were off location in a flat nowhere close to what the quality of hotel rooms
We live in Franschhoek and enjoy visiting Hermanus, a friend had suggested Misty Waves and we where not disappointed, in fact we where given an upgrade of room with a sea view which was much appreciated.Lovely staff and a very good place to stay.
Having to leave the beautiful room. But we will be back.
Our stay at Misty Waves Boutique Hotel in Hermanus was absolutely unforgettable. The hotel combines old-world charm with modern comforts, creating the perfect setting for a relaxing coastal escape. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and genuine hospitality.The room was spacious and beautifully appointed, with stunning sea views that made every morning feel special. We especially loved sitting out on the terrace, watching the waves and enjoying the wonderful weather we had.The location is ideal—peaceful and quiet, yet just a short walk from Hermanus’s vibrant town center, scenic cliff paths, and top restaurants. Whether you're there to unwind, whale watch, or explore the coast, Misty Waves is the perfect place to stay.Highly recommend for anyone looking for a romantic getaway or a serene seaside break.
Amazing view from balcony. Great breakfast. Lovely bedStaff so friendly and helpful. Secure car park Easy Walk into town for restaurants and shops
This hotel is very quirky. Bit dated decor but that’s the fun side of it. Has a cinema room also!
