Beautiful, homely but chic hotel with excellent service

The Light House was most definitely one of my favourite hotel experiences ever. Everything was of 5* quality from the moment we arrived. The team that work here are so caring and professional, they thought about everything for us. The hotel room felt really luxurious down to all the small details, very well decorated. Two course breakfast on the terrace was exceptional for the two days we stayed there. We were attending a wedding nearby so I only regretted really not having enough time to properly relax and enjoy more of this special place.

A lovely and special place to stay.

From the initial warm welcome, with a bottle of MCC, to our reluctant departure, our stay here was delightful and memorable. The room was beautiful with a fabulous, well appointed bathroom, all very comfortable. The hosts and staff were outstanding, very friendly and helpful throughout. Breakfasts are amazing and beautifully presented, an absolute joy to sit out on the terrace with garden and mountain views. I give this property and staff an unhesitating and well deserved 10.

Henrick & Darrol left us feeling the magic of South Africa and wanting to return. Absolutely fab!

Impeccably presented fare. Smelled and tasted as good as it looked. The offering was customizable, extensive and served with warm hospitality. Tableware and floral arrangements were routinely changed and always thoughtfully designed. We liked EVERYTHING!

Amazing attention to detail but a bit formal

We had high expectations after reading the reviews on Tripadvisor and I must say the place is very special and service exceptional. The bathroom is large and has outstanding water pressure. Bed and bath linen are fabulous and the breakfast amazing. The attention to detail is fantastic and grounds and interiors immaculately maintained. It's however the team that are making the difference as they go above and beyond in providing memorable experiences. Small details such as making advance dinner reservations make all the difference.

Exceptionally stunning hotel!!!

It’s the best hotel I’ve ever been in my life. Everything is great, especially hotel team which makes our stay very comfortable, Darrol, Hendrik and others ❤️ I think that it’s simply not fair to give this hotel ten points, as it deserves much more!!!

Perfect stay in this luxurious B&B

Beautiful house with stunning rooms. The service is impeccable and the food just faultless - breakfast was probably the best I’ve had anywhere - and Mika’s homemade fruit loaf, just divine! Darrol and Hendrik are perfect hosts. Mika even fixed a problem with our rental car. It is very difficult to leave the Light House, except with a promise to yourself that you will come back. Worth every penny. Thank you so much all.

A first class experience

The attention to service was amongst the best we have ever experienced. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble and everyone went out of their way to meet all our needs - even some that were not strictly their domain. Simply cannot fault anything about our stay.

An absolute gem! Bradley, Hendrik and their team were remarkable. The breakfast a picture painting. The designer interior superb. The eye for detail on everything including the ribbon on the welcome pack remarkable. Truly an outstanding boutique hotel

A memorable stay in a stunning and world class well run boutique hotel.

Though we were spending most of the time in nearby Franschhoek, it didn't hurt that the property is situated in Paarl. The property is absolutely stunning, from the entrance to the suites. The Hamptons Suite is dreamy and absolutely gorgeous. The gardens outside the dining area are meticulously curated and well maintained. The hosts and staff were absolutely fantastic and helpful.
