LaFontaine guesthouse is perfectly situated, eg. walking distance to the village or spreading into the vicinity of Hermanus. Hospitality is great and staff is friendly. Breakfast is fine especially the fruitsalat.

Our room was beautiful & we did not want for... More

Great location, hospitality and food. Comfortable room with a fabulous view but sadly the whales were away when we visited. Gail was a fabulous hostess. If you like dogs you'll love the place. Recommendation for restauarant (lemon butta) was also spot on.
