Beautiful property with wonderful amenities. Very serene place to relax.
We went during the slow season so the property was nice and quiet. Only issue was the food from room service was bland and chicken was cold. While the bathrooms are beautiful and well appointed they needed a bit more attention in cleaning the floor grout in the shower.

Our stay at Bernardus was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, everything felt seamless and beautifully curated. The grounds are breathtaking, the service is impeccable, and every detail is designed to create a sense of calm and luxury.
What stood out most was how effortlessly everything came together—from the warm welcome to the stunning setting, it felt like stepping into a world apart. Every corner of the property is a reminder that this place was created as a true retreat. It’s rare to find a destination that feels so thoughtfully run yet completely relaxed.
Whether you’re lounging by the pool, strolling through the vineyards, or simply enjoying the view from your room, Bernardus offers the perfect blend of sophistication and serenity. We left feeling refreshed, inspired, and already planning our return.

Room size was more than ample and was tastefully decorated and furnished. Hotels grounds were beautiful! Croquet lawn was a beautiful centrepiece and focal point for some well-mannered competition between guests. The 24 hour jacuzzi with a mountain view was an unexpected wonder!
The fitness centre could be better, it felt quite cramped and the cardio machines were quite old. Without a car it was also difficult to leave the premises, a walking trail (or complementary drive to one) would allow the guests to make the most of the beautiful surroundings.

Immaculate grounds on a working vineyard which supplies house wine cellar.
Nothing to complain about
9.0 / 10.0
The absolute quality of everything. It was so friendly and so comfortable. The room was great, nice touches, the cheese, Barnabus wine and drinks in room. Nice lawn area, putting fun but not Green standard; after a wine or two didn’t seem to matter.
Henry in Lucia restaurant is a gem.
Wine cellar lovely, serious wine list, do ask for the non standard list.
The gardens are pretty special especially the vegetable garden.
The food in the Lucia restaurant was pretty average. We shared a Caesar salad which was pretty under dressed, under parmesaned and under anchovied.
Julies chicken was underwhelming.
I had the ravioli which was excellent.
The crème bruleee custard was over cooked to a solid mass and the vanilla seeds hadn’t been mixed in much.
Given the excellence of everything else the food was average.
10.0 / 10.0
Every detail was attended to, including welcome glass of rose and help with bags/ room operations. Heated floors in the bath and gratis snacks in the room, comfy beds and nice pool round out what we expect from a top tier resort.
The only issue that could have made the stay better would be to have streaming TV channel access in the room's TV (netflix-prime) as we didnt have access to our binge-worthy shows at night, but it is just a gentle suggestion.

Quiet and beautiful property with views of the valley from our room. The room was lovely and super cosy!
The service door was right outside our room and so it was very noisy during our stay as someone seemed to always be there. It also made us feel like there wasn’t enough privacy if someone is outside our door all the time.

I absolutely loved everything about this stay!! The grounds, facilities, and guest rooms are stunning. The service was impeccable. Every single person who worked there was kind, accommodating, helpful, professional and made for a five star stay. This was truly one of my very favorite hotel/resorts I’ve ever stayed at and I hope to make it a regular getaway. Highlights of the trip included being welcomed with wine, playing bocce on their gorgeous grounds, taking their convertible Mercedes AMG on 17-Mile drive, a day at their spa, a birthday dinner at Lucia, breakfast in bed via room service, the adults only hot tub, and the view from our balcony. And when I left something behind in the guest room they offered to ship it to me for no charge. It made for an absolutely perfect weekend. Highly highly recommend! You won’t regret booking here. Worth every penny. I will most certainly be back to Bernardus!
loved everything!

Delightful place; peaceful in places;
Service wasn’t up to the standard of such a high ranked property; menu was lacking in vegetarian options if you stayed there for more than one dinner.

This hotel has 'ritz' like standard. All the decors and amenities are topnotch. Besides, the hotel staffs are so nice and friendly. They all have big smiles on them! I also love the spa lounge and the pool and the infinity jacuzzi areas. I feel so relaxing after spending my vacation here.
my vacation is too short... I wish it's longer... don't wanna leave.
