General Information

The Ocean Eleven Luxury Guest House is situated on the Whale Route in the Cape Area, in the quaint coastal town of Hermanus on Walker Bay. Although the Hermanus village is small, it has a city-like infrastructure and, having been a popular coastal holiday destination for over a hundred years, there are a myriad of things to see and do.

Ocean Eleven Guest House offers guests luxury accommodation right on the cliff paths overlooking the ocean. The colonial style luxury guest house exudes the grace and style befitting a destination which has the reputation of being the "Riviera of the South." There are ten beautifully appointed rooms made up of three standard, five deluxe and two suites, each with an all-embracing sea view over Walker Bay.

All along this coast avid whale watchers can see the Southern Right Whale swimming and simply interacting within the sheltered bays and coves where they venture close to the shore to mate and give birth to their young.

Not only does Hermanus offer the best land-based whale viewing in the world, with guests of Ocean Eleven being able to watch these creatures from the comfort of their suite, but the local "Champagne Air" is also believed to have restorative qualities and many travel to this coastal town for recuperation and wellness.

When visiting Hermanus, a host of adventures await you, from sea kayaking and paragliding to great white shark diving. The Hermanus golf club offers world class golfing and if this is not enough the famous Arabella golf course is but minutes away. The pristine beaches, charming village shops, variety of restaurants, cliff paths and nature reserve, all nestled between an incandescent mountain range and the spectacular Atlantic Ocean make the Ocean Eleven Guest House the perfect destination for a coastal holiday.

The Whales

Hermanus, with its infamous cliffs and incredible views over the ocean, can be easily described as one of the best places in the world to come and see Southern Right whales.
