Overview
The pretty Abalone Guest Lodge is a 4-star property situated at Sievers Point, directly on the cliffs overlooking Hermanus Bay, an ideal spot for whale-watching. This small guest house has 5 tastefully decorated and comfortable guest rooms. All rooms are en suite with a private balcony or patio. Guests can also enjoy panoramic sea and mountain views from their rooms. The guest house serves a full breakfast each morning and whales can actually be spotted from the terrace as you dine al fresco. Abalone Guest Lodge is located midway between the town centre and the beautiful sandy beaches of Hermanus. The scenic cliff path to the front of the hotel is a unique whale-watching spot.

“Great accommodation, superb location, delicious breakfast, easy going vibe.”
Location 10/10- right on the Cliff Path - with great views. The breakfast was great: Both a' la carte and buffet options were great. And the kitchen staff were more than happy to make anything that wasn't on the menu.

“Wonderfully located and very comfortable guesthouse”
Ansley was an amazing host. Very personable indeed and lead a great time of (many fairly new) staff. Lovely, comfortable room, with great views. A small but perfectly adequate pool area. Great breakfasts, and the biggest surprise was to be able to have an in-house dinner cooked by an external chef. Excellent quality food and service. Good spa was again a lovely surprise. Beautifully located on the coastal walk.
