The whale on main B&B was our first stop of our 2 weeks South Africa trip and we couldn’t imagine a better start. we spent three nights in this gorgeous accommodation, which is privately run by the owners Marlene and Zeno. We enjoyed every single minute, Zeno and Marlene were always helpful with amazing recommendations for food & activities. The room and breakfast were perfect. Their love and passion makes everyone’s stay unforgettable. It’s like coming home. Thank you so much for hosting us. Hope to see you again, maybe one day in Germany (Hamburg 😉).

We did not know Hermanus but chose to stay at the Whale on Main. My only regret is that we didn't stay longer. Next time we definitely will. The rooms are spacious, spotless and beautifully done out. Safe parking. Scrumptious breakfast. I cannot fault anything - from when we made the booking to when we left. Marlene and Zeno attended to our every need and Martha is ever helpful. I can recommend the Whale on Main without hesitation.

Our stay at The Whale on Main B&B was absolut fantastic. The hosts are so nice and helped us in every questions. The breakfast is perfect. Also where it is located is perfect it is directly at the cliff path where you can walk in a few minutes to the center of Hermanus. Also we loved our visit at Lizettes Restaurant (a Restaurant which was recommended by our hosts) which you reach by a few minutes walk up the street. We were picked up for a whale watching Tour which fantastic directly in front of the door. All summerized our stay here was Perfect and we recommend this for everyone for a Beautiful stay in Hermanus.
