Mosselberg on Grotto Beach

Perched in Voelklip, Hermanus, this 5-star boutique villa sits above Blue Flag Grotto Beach and is minutes from Voelklip Beach and the cliff path. Fernkloof Nature Reserve and the Whale Museum are close by, and Southern Right whales can be seen from June to November. Ideal for ocean-view, beachfront escapes and family-friendly stays.

Only five individually decorated guestrooms give the place an intimate, design-led vibe. Rooms feature kitchenettes, Select Comfort beds with Egyptian cotton, private sea-facing balconies and en-suite bathrooms with twin basins, heated towel rails, deep soaking tubs and rainfall showerheads. An award-winning architect designed a huge seaside deck and pool area, and each room has its own entrance.

Soak on the huge deck or in the outdoor (heated) pool and wake up to sea-breeze mornings. The villa offers a spa with massages, body treatments and facials, bicycles and access to mountain-bike trails, an arcade/game room, a playroom for kids and BBQ and terrace spaces. Complimentary wired and wireless internet, concierge services and shuttle options are available.

Complimentary wired and wireless internet and express check-in/check-out make stays smooth. A roundtrip airport shuttle and cruise terminal shuttle are available for a surcharge, and free self-parking is onsite.

Wake up to a complimentary full breakfast served daily (8:00–9:30) or choose the à la carte breakfast on the deck or veranda around the heated pool. There’s an on-site restaurant, a bar/lounge and a beach bar, plus limited room service and in-room minibars and coffee kitchenettes.
