"Clean and organized room, fresh towels daily and non-invasive and friendly staff and management. Lovely breakfast. Was great to have use of fridge, freezer and ice available for cold drinks. "

"Awesome service, loved the attention to detail."

"Had 4 enjoyable nights in very good quality accommodation in a superb location - only minutes walk to the centre of town.

Would certainly stay there again."

"Very comfortable, and Frank was a very hospitable host."

"We had a wonderful weekend (3 nights). The room was very comfortable and the large bathroom with shower very clean. The under carpet heating was great on our first night when it was a little chilly.

"We had a wonderful weekend (3 nights). The room was very comfortable and the large bathroom with shower very clean. The under carpet heating was great on our first night when it was a little chilly. Breakfasts are great and Frank (our host) very attentive. We felt well rested on our departure. There is no doubt we will make use of Baleia again.

Oh yes...we saw plenty whales as well! "

"Enjoyed our stay at Baleia. The room was large and comfortable. Breakfast was extensive and tasty. Frank's recommendations for different places to whale watch were most welcome to get away from the hordes.

Would highly recommend to future travellers."

"Very clean, tidy accommodation, good breakfast and friendly service. Very good value for money, we would come back again."

"It was great"

"Thank you."

"Restful decor, spacious bedroom and well appointed bathroom"

"The owners were really welcoming. Going inside of the place it was really beautiful. I've never come across a more clean and neat place. Everything was modern to perfection.

"The owners were really welcoming. Going inside of the place it was really beautiful. I've never come across a more clean and neat place. Everything was modern to perfection. The room was graciously spacious. It was fresh and clean. It was so comfortable that I felt very much at home. I went away for some alone and relaxing time, and that is exactly what I got here at this lodge. It was so peaceful, and very quiet. I left feeling refreshed and relieved. Staff were also friendly and helpful. I would go back at any time. "

"We had a nice stay and we enjoyed it very much. The accommodation was great and we got exactly what we wanted. It was clean, neat and comfortable. "

"Good accommodation for one night stay and good breakfast."

"Baleia Lodge is easily found on the R43 on the way west from Hermanus, about a five minute walk from the town centre. It is beautifully appointed with large comfortable (fine cotton sheets and excellent pillows) bedrooms and nicely finished en-suite bathrooms. The rooms open onto a sheltered courtyard where there is a small plunge-pool. The hosts are friendly and attentive without going 'over the top' and the breakfasts are good and filling. Cars are parked within the walls and security gate. All in all this is an excellent place to stay and we will stay longer than the two nights next time."

"We had an absolutely lovely stay at this Lodge. The room was neat and clean and the host and hostess were great. I have already recommended it to people and would certainly stay here again."

"Baleia Guest Lodge is a welcoming and neat guesthouse. The staff were really friendly and the stay enjoyable"

"My wife and I enjoyed our stay at the Baleia - both Chris and Janke were very friendly and helpful and the guest house is very conveniently situated about three minutes walk from the sea front."

"A warm and friendly welcome by Chris and Bianca was the start to a great stay in the Baleia Guest Lodge.

"A warm and friendly welcome by Chris and Bianca was the start to a great stay in the Baleia Guest Lodge. A brief orientation of the lodge gave us an insight into the simple yet well decorated establishment. The bedrooms and bathrooms are huge, comfortable and very clean, all leading out onto a common courtyard with a splash pool where one can laze away the days. Breakfast was a grand feast of fruits, cereals, yoghurts and a breakfast menu that beats anything I have tasted on all my travels. South African hosts definitely have the edge when it comes to delighting the guests and Baleia Guest Lodge tops my list. I shall return. "

"Was really great! Beautiful room and breakfast & welcoming hospitality.

"We really enjoyed our stay at the Baleia Guest Lodge. We are four adults and wanted to spend just one day in Hermanus to watch the whales and we must say that the Baleia is a very good place because it is very close to the town centre so that you can leave your car there and just walk to the coast and the restaurants. The rooms are very nicely furnished and the two hosts extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast was great. The house is just very close to the main road, so in the morning it is a bit loud."

"Very good set-up and charming host.

The place is very nice and quiet"

Thanks for a lovely stay in a lovely place."

"The property was very clean presentable and exactly as described. We were welcomed and left to our own devises but help and attention was there at hand. What a fantastic breakfast. We will be back to visit on our next SA. trip, possibly early next year."

"We had a lovely time in this spacious and beautifully decorated lodge. Great tasting breakfast! The lodge is perfectly situated, not far from the center of the town.

All and all I would recommend this lodge to my friends."

"Had a great time at Baleia Guest Lodge. Very easy to find, and the rooms were large and spotless. The pool area was very sheltered although not large but it enabled us to catch some rays of sun. The breakfast was superb and the service very good. Loved the "honesty bar"."

(RoomsForAfrica Translated)
It is in the city centre of Hermanus. It doesn’t have sea view, however only a 5 minute walk to the beach.
It is really a beautiful B&B, nicely furnished and nice big and clean rooms. The owners are friendly and we got a fantastic breakfast every morning. Recommended.
"

"Can recommend this guest house wholeheartedly. Spanking clean accommodation, great breakfast and friendly host. Will definitely stay there again! "

"Excellent accommodation. Very clean and neat.
Beverley & Frank were very friendly and helpful.
Breakfast was great.
Thank you."

"Had a brilliant stay. Accommodation was first class, breakfast excellent, pleasant relaxing courtyard with small pool. Would definitely go back."

"We stayed only one night but found the accommodation very comfortable and conveniently located for both walks along the coastal path and to the restaurants in the centre of Hermanus. Lovely breakfast, the individual fruit salads were exceptional."

"A very well run and kept lodge.
The accommodation and facilities were as expected based on the information given in the advertisment.
I was made to feel very welcome."

"The place was easy to find, and we were able to walk to and through the main part of town. The room was very pleasant and spacious, clean and comfortable. Our door opened up right onto the pool area--a small, very brisk pool. Our host served a very nice breakfast and was very helpful in pointing out what to do on our brief stay. We did drive down to a grotto on the beach and had an evening picnic, and when paragliding became a reality, he was very helpful in providing directions to the take off site. If we are ever in Hermanus again, we would not hesitate to stay here as opposed to trying something else. "

"We booked this lodge for 6 nights and we enjoyed every day. It was spacious, clean, had very good breakfast, and the establishment has very nice and helpful people. It is close to the centre, which is a walking-distance and is even safe at night.

It is an excellent place to stay in.

"Ottime stanze e discreta colazione. Proprietario cordiale. Parcheggio un pò risicato.
