Hamewith Penthouse - Seafront Views
We had a lovely few days in this apartment, views were spectacular and the living space was great for spending time watching the whales. Would recommend to anyone visiting Hermanus. 2 min away from lovely restaurants.

*Self-Check in - Whale Watching Paradise -Central*
We had a superb time, awesome location, can't ask for more.

Seaside Serenity: Marine Terrace Retreat
We loved Ethan's place. Absolutely perfect for our needs. Fabulous views Location is really great. Right on the cliff path, 2 mins from 2 rock pools, 5 mins walk to shops and restaurants. Ethan was very responsive and helpful. Thank you....we'll be back!

Seafront@ The Birkenhead private pool - Inverter
This is one gorgeous home and getting to experience the views from the patio in real life is something else! It’s apparent that the owners make full use of their wonderful property as it’s very well stocked! Lying in bed hearing the ocean is sublime! Loved how we could simply walk everywhere and there is also a fabulous coffee shop called Oskar’s 100m away which we frequented regularly during our stay! Would recommend this home in a heartbeat!

Whale Song
What an incredible location with the greatest views. Lovely Hermanus never seems to fail. Array of restaurants to choose from on your door step.

17Marine/Apt.101a/Sea-Facing/Inverter/BBQ/Parking
Always a pleasure to return to 17 Marine. We are already planning the next one. We love this stunning home which overlooks the ocean. The location is perfect and the ocean view is next level. Thank you again to our lovely host, we had yet another amazing experience.

Stunning ocean view house with indoor pool
A stunning, spacious house in a prime location with a breathtaking view you could admire forever. The amenities leave nothing to be desired.

VillaVue Superb Sea Views - Shark & Whale Watching
Beautiful views, very quiet neighborhood, large house, well equipped. We were 2 families and stayed for 2 nights, everything worked out perfectly. Bertha is a great host, thank you very much.

Ons C-Huis: Gansbaai Seafront, back-up power
The C-Huis was an excellent AirBnB. For a four-bedroom, three-bathroom home, it is incredible value for money. The sea view from the open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge area is unbeatable, and we saw whales in the bay. The home is modern, well-maintained, spotlessly clean and the kitchen is so well-equipped with absolutely everything for cooking, baking, braaing, chopping, roasting, toasting, air-frying, and everything in between. The linens and towels were excellent, and the beds very comfortable. The washer, clothes dryer and dishwasher are great to have and dish wash powder was supplied. A nice touch to find the freezer with ice trays ready to turn out ice on arrival. We will be back!

Beach Haven House
Great location, great communication and welcome from the hosts and overall a perfect get-away for families

Welsh Whales - De Kelders Getaway
Enjoyed staying here. Attended a school sport tournament and appreciated the extra space. Also enjoyed the fact that one can walk to the local restaurants.
