I attended for my special 80th birthday/family reunion dinner on Saturday 15th April 2023 together with two daughters who live in SA, my son who flew in from USA and my other daughter who flew in from New Zealand.
My eldest daughter who lives in the vicinity spoke to members of staff telephonically and met with the manager, Sonali, to make arrangements this special event. She was promised white linen tablecloth/napkins, glass and candles and extra flowers. The extra flowers were beautiful but all other promises were not kept. We had a very plain wooden table.
She were also assured that Webster would be looking after us for the evening. Webster, a lovely, charming and friendly man greeted us at the door. Thereafter we were attended by TC a very surly waiter. When I requested a bowl for my mussel shells, he just said "use your side plate" on which I had some of your delicious bread. Two cases of broken promises from an upmarket establishment was quite unacceptable.
The food was excellent and all 6 of us enjoyed it very much. The location was second to none and simply quite spectacular.

Excellent spot. Did not disappoint. Staff were incredible and of course the view was spectacular.
Rooms were great. Only down side was the bathroom was a bit outdated but pleasant overall.
Definitely recommended.

Gorgeous! Great food. The rooms are quite small though. Staff are great. The view is truly out of this world.
The Whale Suite had the best view in the world. We never left our room for two days. Webster could not do enough for us. The meals were absolutely delicious and the service was impeccable. Thank you for making our stay so wonderful. We will come back
We had an incredible experience at Head Over Hills. The staff was so friendly and helpful. It was an intimate and personal feel. We especially enjoyed the wine tasting and got to pick out a bottle to enjoy with dinner. The food was also incredible. I would recommend to anyone looking for a truly unique, special experience.
This was one of our best vacation stays to date! The hotel is overlooking a view most people would hike to see. The rooms are comfortable with expansive balconies to enjoy being a part of nature. What made this hotel stand above the rest was the owners and team, Martin, Teresa, Webster, and Zizi, who all made the stay top notch.
We started in the wine cellar with a private tasting with Martin, that recommended a variety of great selections, one of which we got a bottle for dinner. Dinner was spectacular as we enjoyed great food and a continuation of great wine.
If you are looking for a once in a lifetime view, incredible wine selection, or just a luxury stay, I would highly recommend Head over Hills!
