Whale Away Guest House

This luxurious guest house faces the Atlantic Ocean, and is located just 5 minutes’ walk from both the beach and the centre of Hermanus. This is a popular destination for whale watching.


Situated at the foot of the Overberg Mountain Range, Whale Away Guest House offers elegantly furnished guest rooms. Guests can enjoy a free English breakfast in the dining room, or visit one of the restaurants within 10 minutes’ walk of the guesthouse.


A cliff path along the ocean front takes you through Kaapse Fynbos, a heathland habitat found only on the Western Cape. A number of outdoor activities are available, including shark diving, golfing, or quad biking.


After a day of exploring the region, guests can go for a refreshing swim in the outdoor pool. Whale Away Guest House is 120 km from Cape Town.
