The hub of the famous Whale Route, Hermanus provides a number of opportunities for recreation and relaxation. During your stay at the Auberge Burgundy Boutique Hotel & Spa, you can easily visit the popular local restaurants, the craft market, boutiques, art galleries and quaint shopping malls. The beach is also just 50 metres away, offering a variety of water-sports and nature tours. Auberge Burgundy Hotel and Spa was a perfect choice for our short stay in Hermanus. My wife and I loved how the property felt like a quiet corner of Tuscany, with warm colours and a relaxed atmosphere. The location couldn’t have been better, right in the heart of town and close to the water. The pool was excellent, a real highlight, and the staff were attentive throughout our stay. It’s exactly the kind of boutique hotel that makes a quick getaway feel special.

Dining options include the hotel’s acclaimed restaurants, where guests can savour award-winning cuisine. The Square Restaurant, with its striking glass roof, offers a bright and inviting setting. The on-site Angsana Spa provides a range of health and beauty treatments for those seeking relaxation and rejuvenation. Gem in Cape Town Our stay at The Vineyard Hotel was almost accidental—just a single night stopover in Cape Town before heading deeper into the Western Cape. Yet what we discovered felt nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, we were struck by the beauty of the setting. Nestled in the heart of a bustling city, the hotel felt like a secret sanctuary—an oasis where the gardens seemed like a direct slice out of the Garden of Eden itself. The lush greenery, perfectly tended grounds, and tranquil atmosphere transported us to another world. The facilities were absolutely world-class, and the staff went above and beyond in every possible way. We wanted for nothing. Every detail was handled with seamless care and warmth, leaving us feeling both spoiled and at home. The food was exquisite—among the finest we’ve ever tasted in all our international travels. Each dish was crafted with a depth of flavor and artistry that elevated the dining experience to something unforgettable. Although our stay was brief—just one night—the impression it left on us will last far longer. We are already dreaming of our return, when we can take our time to savor this incredible place again. The Vineyard is truly a gem of Cape Town, and we cannot wait to return.
