Lovely hotel facing the ocean.
Our large room overlooked the pool with views across the ocean. Huge flat screen TV (well, it was the wrong time to look out to sea for whales!), massive bathroom with jacuzzi and large walk in shower, double sinks.
Great views from the restaurant situated on the third floor of the hotel, lovely seafood, all cooked to order. The staff couldn't have been more helpful or friendlier.
It's a five minute walk from the hotel into the town centre, where there are more bars and restaurants (we loved Fusion for amazing calamari and mussels, plus the owner drove us home!).
Hermanus is a lovely small town, with great views across the bay. Do go to Bouchard Finlayson for wine tasting (back towards the Wine Village junction and turn right, 2km up the hill). It has amazing views across the valley and lovely, reasonable wines.
Hermanus is also within easy striking distance of Arniston (feet in the Indian ocean), Cape L'Alguhas (southernmost point of Africa) and be back in Hermanus (feet in the Atlanic ocean) - all in one day!
Would definitely love to stay here again :)
