    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...

    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!!!

Company information

Darrol and Hendrik make up the senior management team. After a lifetime spent in various disciplines of design (stage, film, fashion and interiors), they have acquired a wealth of references to draw on, in leading this talented team. We select our staff based on their exceptional aptitude for engaging with people and tend to favour candidates who have not worked in the hospitality industry before. Our on-site experiential training allows each individual to develop his or her unique set of talents and skills. Management invests ample time and resources in ongoing hospitality and lifestyle training of our team.

Property information

The Light House Boutique Suites is proudly owned by Dirk and Annette Hertzog. It is a fulfillment of Annette’s vision to create a sanctuary where guests could enjoy the same beautiful space that used to be their family home. The Light House is a sanctuary where guests can expect to get pampered and spoiled in a stylishly beautiful environment.

Neighbourhood information

Paarl is the third oldest town in South Africa and is known for its wine route and history. Dutch settlers first saw Paarl Rock glistening in the sun after recent rains and called it ‘Parel’ which means ‘pearl’ in Dutch. We Iove it’s authenticity. The people here are truly South African. There is a cornucopia of different cultures and languages here which make it feel authentic and genuinely South African. We particularly enjoy our local boutique wine estates; Mellasat, Black Pearl, Avondale and Druk-My-Niet. These wine estates in Paarl produce some of the highest quality, award-winning wines. Another favourite is to wander down the historic Main Road walking past numerous beautiful little coffee shops where you can have something to eat and drink.
