Experience unobstructed views of the breaking waves on the cliffs right in front of this luxury house in the heart of Hermanus. Located on the famous Hermanus cliff path and within a short walking distance (300 metres) from the centre of town with its rich diversity of restaurants and other tourist attractions.
Not only is Boutique Ocean Views the ideal holiday retreat, but it also has a history dating back to the 1930s, with the heritage cottage Wendy's, on the property. Located in the heart of the coastal fishing village of Hermanus, ‘Wendy’s’ is named after a lone female whale that used to visit the town in the late 1930s. According to SJ du Toit’s book, ‘Hermanus Stories’, this whale, fondly known as Wendy, was considered one of the family by the village folk, as she returned yearly. She stopped coming to the bay in the early 1940s, but the house situated on the rocks, near that lonesome spot, was named Wendy’s cottage in her honour. The tradition continued to the 1950s when another female whale was named Wendy. The press regularly reported on the movements of Wendy and her calf.
Today we still refer to the heritage building on the property as ‘Wendy’s’, in honour of the female whales that can regularly be spotted, with their calves, for your room or the living areas of Boutique Ocean Views from the end of June to late-October every year.

Hermanus Reviews
A friendly town where everything you need is nearby.
The weather and the wine farms, as well as their Saturday market.
After leaving the Grand Lux boutique hotel we checked into the Harbour House which was accommodating and welcoming and central to everything. GLBH is out of the way for tourists unless you have a car.
Lots to see there and loved the coastal paths.
The restaurants, the calmness and of course the ocean.
Nice sea side walkway, but the center is too crowded.
Relaxing place.Beautiful sea and cliff views. Lovely shops and large variety of excellent restaurants.
Fernkloof for beautiful walks in Nature reserve. Grotto beach absolutely amazing( all facilities )Fine sand, body boarding and kite surfing when windy.
Awesome experience, atmosphere!
Beautiful coastline; touristy shops; restaurants; clean town.
I am use to Hermanus. It is our go to holiday destination.
