The Whale on Main B&B

The Whale on Main B&B in Hermanus is fantastic! We stayed for two days to play golf. The golf course is very close as is the walk along the ocean. Perfect location, beautiful rooms, and delicious breakfast. The conversation with Tanja was enlightening and part of the positive experience. She recommended several restaurants which turned out to be great choices. The staff are incredibly welcoming and helpful. Highly recommend for a relaxing and memorable stay.

The moment you arrive there is this warm feeling of being welcomed. Tanja and her team were so supportive and gave me a lot of great recommendations. The room was very beautiful, spacious and clean. I loved my time there and will stay longer next time.

Me and my girlfriend stayed for one night during our trip from Cape Town to Port Elizabeth. I wish we could have stayed longer due this place was so lovely and Tanja was such a great host who helped out who she could and had a lot of good recommendations around the area. I would definitely like to come back

Our group had a pleasant one night stay at Whale - and they had only great stuff to say about it :) It is quiet, very neat and just an overall accommodation choice for when visiting hermanus, be it work or leisure. Great value for money too ＜3

We had an amazing stay here. The rooms are super nice and clean , also the owners of the B&B are very hospitality. They tell you all about the good places you need to visit and had some really good recommendations for some restaurants. When you’re planning to go to Hermanus this is the place you need to stay!

We booked a stay here before Covid hit, and rebooked it for a year later but still couldn't make it, this year we finally made it and worth the wait it was. The property is stunning and the photos just do not do it justice, we stayed for 3 nights and loved every moment. Attention to detail is thorough right throughout the property as are the hosts, Geno & Marlene. Offering lots of advice about places to see and venues to eat. The property is within easy walking distance of the cliff path where you can either go to Hermanus itself in 30+ minutes or in the opposite direction to Sopiesklip Beach. If you drive into town it's about 5 minutes so all in all a great location. And if you are there at the right time of year there is a good chance of seeing whales from the cliff path and even in Hermanus itself. So if you are looking for somewhere to stay in Hermanus then you won't go far wrong at Whale on Main.
