I liked Baleia. Friendly staff and check-in, even when we were a bit late. Rooms were big and had everything needed. Location and breakfast were good. The only downside is that they seem to have run out of hot water due to a big group staying there. Considering the price, not having hot water was not great, imo. Hopefully this won’t be an issue for other guests in the future.

Friendly welcome and helpful info on local
area to spot whales and where to eat. Room was comfortable, clean and had everything I needed. Secure parking was a bonus. Highly recommended

A Very Easy to find Place
Baleia was easy to find as it was metres off the main road into Hermanus. Very secure parking and easy to access/exit on foot or by car. Characterful rooms - many set around a small courtyard with small pool. Host and staff were kind and helpful. Breakfast was very good. Value for money.

I stayed at Baleia de Hermanus for the first time in early December of 2024. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the rooms were neat and clean. The staff also organised an earlier-than-usual breakfast for me as I had to leave early for a golf tournament - this was much appreciated. I look forward to revisiting this quaint and inviting guesthouse in the near future.

very comfortable
We had a very comfortable stay at Baleia, from location to breakfast it all contributed to an overall excellent choice.
The only downside for us traveling with expensive equipment was that the door lock to the room was very flimsy, but we had no issues.
