"Whale Rock Lodge is a lovely place. Very much a home away from home. Staff welcoming and efficient. We had a room in The Villa; a separate building to main house with it's own entrance and car park but only 30 steps to main building. The room and bathroom were large with fridge & tea/coffee making facilities. Good sized balcony with comfortable seating. The 2 pools - larger at main house and one at villa had plenty of sunbeams and other seating. Pleasant sitting rooms in both buildings. Excellent freshly cooked breakfast or buffet style continental. Cliff walk into town takes approx 40 minutes but too far out of town to walk for dinner. No Ubers and only a limited number of taxis in Hermanus."

"Great location. Very friendly service. The pool area seems a little outdated and visitors are in general in their late retirement age. But we still loved it . Breakfast and food was amazing ! "

"Really comfortable and spotlessly clean, excellent breakfast and friendly helpful host. Definitely on our go back to list."

"This is in the top 3 of the best value for money accommodation we've ever stayed in! Why? The location, the welcome, the room, the SUPERB breakfast, the local knowledge and advice, the electric bikes we hired. And in particular the way hosts Stefan and Nikki interacted with us and the other guests, somehow bringing us all together which enhanced the stay even more.We made some great contacts with people who had stayed at Penguino previously .... which speaks volumes in itself. Hermanus is a lovely, chilled-out place and when we go back we will be staying here again."

"Excellent with one or two reservations. The staff were wonderful in every respect. The apartment we chose was very good size with a comfy bed. Easy to use aircon. Our only reservations really related to future rather than the here and now as some of the fixtures and fittings are already failing a bit."

"All were very helpful and friendly and gave good advice on eating out options. Also kindly arranged for the International rugby to be on the TV - thats good personal service "

"Our room was beautiful with a spectacular view. The staff could not be more helpful. The shuttle bus was a bonus that we didn’t expect. The food was delicious. The only minor downside was the colour (grey) and size of the pool - although it was always spotlessly clean it appeared a bit murky. However, it wasn’t - it was just that it was painted grey. "

"Exceeded expectations "
