“Great stay, lovely host!”
Came back for a second stay in the few weeks we were in ZA, due to flights disruption. As usual the property was great! Very clean and in a quiet area. The host Vanessa was most helpful again, and flexible with check in/out times.👍😁

“Comfortable, private and convenient”
A really comfortable stay in a tastefully-decorated and very private room, with all the features you could need. A very personal and informative welcome from the host Vanessa. The address is super-convenient for walking into the town and to the seafront, and without traffic noise. Highly recommended!

Vanessa met us on arrival. She is an excellent host. Loved how she advised us on things to do in the area. She went the extra mile to obtain visiting hours at the hospital for us, that was so kind. The apartment is spacious and cosy! It is stocked with everything one could possibly need for a short stay. Will definitely return.

“Excellent value for money; well located; clean, bright, spacious accommodation. We will return.”
Yellow Door does not include breakfast. It has a kitchenette to make your own breakfast to eat at the dining table or outside on the patio; or you can have breakfast in the town centre which is about 7 minutes by car. The owner, Vanessa, is very welcoming and informative. The accommodation is spacious and it was nice to have a sitting room/kitchenette/dining area separate from the bedroom. We recommend it and would stay there again without hesitation.

Beautiful property with spacious outdoor area. Clean flat, comfy beds, great small kitchen with everything you need for a short stay. Lovely hosts that live on the property. Safe area. Walking (~15min) distance from main road with restaurants and cafes. We booked the two rooms for a family vacation. Would definitely recommend for a short stay in Hermanus, thank you!
