Récently built, this property is a gem that combines beautiful rooms and an exceptional warm welcome and service. The yellow rose suite that we occupied is simply fantastic. Excellent breakfast. We loved the proximity with restaurants: 5 to 10' walk. We can't wait to come back !

Everything !!! The rooms were large, clean & had everything you could possibly need. The welcome drink & nibbles in the sunny garden was a nice touch as well. Loved all our chats over dinner & breakfast, the hosts were so informative about the area & SA in general. If we ever come again, Glow will be on our route for sure, thank you

My stay at Valentines Hermanus was honestly the best experience I’ve had in a long time. A massive thank you to Greg and Helen —your warmth, hospitality, and attention to every little detail made this stay truly unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, we felt so welcome. The space was immaculately clean, with fresh towels provided every single day. It’s the little touches that really stood out—beautiful flowers in every corner, and the most delicious homemade rusks that made our mornings extra special. The care and effort put into maintaining the space is unmatched. You can tell Greg and Helen genuinely care about creating a home away from home, and it shows in every aspect of the stay. I honestly couldn’t recommend Valentines Hermanus more. If you’re thinking of booking—do it. You’ll love every second of it, just like we did. Thank you again, Greg and Helen!

Walking to the town centre was around 15 -20 mins. The walk very was scenic and breezy. Stefan & Nikki are great host. Both of them took time to share important information on our travels and safety. Stefan provided a list of breakfast menu in the morning and he takes great effort in ensuring we are comfortable. Do take note should you have a Sunday check in with them for advise on the check in time.
