Beachfront House - Hermanus Whale View is located in Hermanus, 2.7 km from Village Square and 6 km from Hamilton Russel Vineyards, in an area where cycling can be enjoyed. The apartment is in an area where guests can engage in activities such as fishing and hiking.

The apartment offers a barbecue. A private beach area can be found at Beachfront House - Hermanus Whale View, along with a garden.

Excellent location. Most of Hermanus is higher up above the sea but this is at sea level. Sea views from the lounge and two bedrooms are fantastic - the pictures don't lie. Full of seabirds and we saw dolphins (it wasn't whale season). There's a walkway, lit at night, to walk along the sea and from there climb out on the rocks, or you can just relax. There's lots to do in Hermanus - lots of lovely walks, restaurants, beaches, boat trips and even wine farms. Everything is drivable within a few minutes but you will need a car. Host was wonderful and the apartment is gorgeous - full kitchen and spacious. Braai and table on the deck outside. Nice pool in the complex and felt very safe. Also a squash court (we didn't use it).

We really got everything we needed during our stay. We had enjoyed so much the double kitchens, the braai area upstairs, the table tennis and the wet suits. This was really a perfect getaway. The house is also full of peronal touches and arts from the owner. We love them. Will definitely come back again.
