The Whale on Main B&B

“The perfect stay in Hermanus”

The place was absolutely wonderful, with meticulous attention to every tiny detail—everything was beautifully decorated, spotless, and impeccably maintained, creating a warm, welcoming vibe. Michelle, who greeted us, was incredibly kind, friendly, and always ready to help. The breakfast was fresh, homemade, and matched the same thoughtful care that made the whole property special. A truly lovely stay in Hermanus that we’d highly recommend! A scenic 25–30‑minute walk along the Cliff Path, with stunning ocean views, leads straight to the Old Harbour.

We had a beautiful stay at this extraordinary property in Hermanus! The location is simply dreamy—right on the cliffs, perfect for amazing walks with breathtaking views. The owner was incredibly friendly and warm, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. We were especially thrilled by the breakfast: personalized, lovingly prepared, and exceptionally good! There were so many little goodies and thoughtful details that made the stay truly special. A place full of charm, warmth, and attention to detail. We enjoyed every minute and would return anytime. A wholehearted recommendation! ❤️

The guesthouse was excellent, crafted with love and attention to detail. A friendly woman welcomed us at the reception. The breakfasts were tasty, and the parking was covered. The nearby Cliff Path trail is picturesque.

“I loved my stay! My husband and I were treated with so much kindness, respect and professionalism.”

The breakfast was excellent. As Muslims, we only eat strictly halal, and the kitchen staff were very accommodating and made us feel welcome. Thank you! The Wi‑Fi was problematic; in Room 6 the TV wouldn’t connect to our YouTube and Netflix accounts, and the connection was slow. On Sunday, 25 Oct, we had no Wi‑Fi at all, and the front desk struggled to fix it.
