It will help if you can put more lights and maybe paving to walk to the stairs for rooms 11 at night. We really enjoyed our stay. Everyone is friendly and helpfull and we would defnitively visit Manar on the Bay again. The rooms are very nice, much space and pretty views.

It is well located for lovely drives down the coast to Betty's Bay, Pringle Bay and on to Hermanus. Noleen, one of the managers recommended some fantastic wineries... More

For my birthday in September, I made a booking (with a voucher) for this guesthouse as the reviews were excellent! Unfortunately, the weather did not play along and it was extremely rainy and misty the whole day and night. This was disappointing to say the least, as we were in one of the upper rooms which usually has a superb... More

The cleanliness of the entire facility was above par. The breakfast was fresh, healthy, laid back, and served to order. The sitting area was a place that we... More

Gordon's Bay is a little sleepy, but its quite beautiful too, especially in the late afternoons. Manor on the Bay is a wonderful guest house. Extremely comfortable and elegant, it is walking distance from the beach and restaurants, and the room we stayed in had a magnificent view. Staff is friendly, and breakfast was very good too.

We enjoyed our first trip to Manor on the Bay earlier in the year that we returned a couple of months later. Karin and her team are excellent, with attention to detail in the rooms great. Staying in one of the highest rooms, the view is wonderful. The breakfasts, though modest in options, are superb. When we go a third... More

The guesthouse has breathe-taking view, the service was excellent and the rooms were fabulous, so far my best choice of accomodation. It is perfectly located for sunset walks along the beach, followed by dinner at the habour. The atmosphere is relaxing and one can enjoy range of spa treatments at the in-house salon. It is definitely a place I would... More
