Hermanus is built along the shores of Walker Bay near the southern most tip of Africa.

The quaintness of the original village can still be seen in the renovated fishermen's cottages, many of which have been converted into shops and restaurants. Enjoy alfresco dining around the fountain at the Village Square, while waiting for a whale to appear, or just enjoy the passing trade. The vibrant music of the local Marimba Band will undoubtedly get your feet tapping!

When you become just a bit too relaxed for a trip to the beach, simply cool down in our crystal-clear pool situated amongst wild olive trees in a sun drenched courtyard.  Or sip a sundowner from your vantage point in the Rocky Lounge, next to a crackling, open fire place, watching the shadows lengthen on the fairway as another perfect day draws to an end in Hermanus.
