5-star cliffside hotel with direct whale watching from guest rooms in Hermanus

Rooms & Views

The Marine Hermanus offers individually designed rooms and suites with views of Walker Bay, the mountains, or the manicured courtyard. During whale season (June to November), guests can watch southern right whales directly from their bed without leaving the room. The hotel's heated saltwater pool in the courtyard provides a relaxing spot after a day on the cliff path.

Dining & Wine

The on-site restaurant serves fresh, seasonal ingredients with a menu that changes throughout the year. Wine pairings come from local Hemel-en-Aarde Valley vineyards, showcased during regular culinary events. Breakfast is served buffet-style with a la carte egg options, and the dining room overlooks Walker Bay.

Spa & Wellness

The Marine Hermanus includes a full-service spa with treatment rooms for body scrubs, facials, and couples massage. Guests have access to a steam room, spa lounge, and relaxation area for pre- or post-treatment downtime. The spa also offers spa/wellness packages that combine multiple treatments.

Location & Activities

The Marine Hermanus Hotel lies adjacent to the famous Hermanus Cliff Path, a scenic coastal walk that runs along the bay. It is 100 km from Cape Town International Airport and a short drive to Fernkloof Nature Reserve and Hemel-en-Aarde Valley wineries. The hotel offers guided walking tours and bike tours for exploring the surrounding area.

Events & Family

Marine Hotel Hermanus has a dedicated Events Coordinator for weddings and corporate retreats, with indoor and outdoor spaces offering spectacular views.
