Reviews for The Nantucket
"no Title"
Really lovely place to stay at while in Hermanus. Lovely rooms and services thnx to the host / hostess and helps. Always clean and very homey. We had a beautiful view of the entire Hermanus and we're given binoculars to take in the view and spot whales in the ocean right from the comfort of our room or from the balcony. Breakfast, which is included, was lovely and clearly much though is put in the quality and selections thereof, being healthy with juice, teas and coffees to accompany a balanced and great start to everyday. We were able to order takeout for lunch and supper and the drive to town is about 15 mins away where there's much to do and see and shop for. And the mall is about 30 min away [15 from town]. Thank you Nantukit it was a beautiful stay and we would definitely check in with you again!

Nice view but you have to drive to the ocean. Good breakfast but don't expect an English breakfast.

We loved this place, a highlight of our trip. Modern, spacious and beautifully decored house with lots of light in very quite area. Extremely friendly owners, delicious breakfast. We had one of the two ocean view rooms, gorgeous views. Also the mountain view rooms are nice as each room is individually styled. Lovely hound dogs.
