The Marine Hermanus Location

Just 110 kms from Cape Town International Airport and sited on the Hermanus cliff above the old harbour, The Marine Hotel is situated on the sea front at the end of the village main street. The "whaleseye" view of life on the mainland is of a dramatic mountainscape overflowing with African fynbos, the indigenous Cape Flora.

The Marine has had a complete makeover by new owner Liz McGrath, who has taken care to ensure world class quality in the tradition of her two other hotels - The Cellars-Hohenort and The Plettenberg. The hotel has 45 individually decorated bedrooms and suites - each with private facilities. Views extend out across Walker Bay or across the beautiful internal courtyards with swimming pool and garden. Elegant dining at the Marine may be enjoyed at either Seafood at the Marine or The Pavillion restaurants with world class chefs taking care of every detail.

The Orangery is the place to wile away the day with a glass of champagne, a cocktail or even afternoon tea with nothing between you and the South Pole - other than 3,000 miles of ocean. Alternatively there is the adjoining Reading Room - perfect for quiet contemplation after a busy day’s whale watching. Peel back the silk drapes in one of our sea facing rooms to reveal the type of view dreams are made of, each a riot of the freshest, newest colours and fabrics with a real sense of escape. The bathrooms, a study in marble, chrome and luxurious deep pile towelling, the perfect recipe for relaxation amongst the bubbles. Three exceptionally talented interior designers have worked tirelessly to ensure the highest standard of style and comfort in the bedrooms. The hotel has 43 individually decorated bedrooms and suites — each with private facilities. Many have commanding views across Walker Bay or into the beautiful internal courtyards with swimming pool and garden. All the rooms are air conditioned and have mini bars, TV, DVD players and ISDN lines. Award winning Marine Cuisine - an expression of two very different styles. Seafood at the Marine is a bright new restaurant in the moderm idiom, where the only sea view will be on a plate. The atmosphere - informal and busy but with the emphasis on fresh fish and great style. The Pavillion on the other hand, with glorious views from the pretty internal courtyard through to Walker Bay is more traditional in feel. It will serve an array of the highest quality food from the kitchens of Alex Docherty. Carchele Health and Beauty Spa at The Marine is an experience not to be missed.

Stroll along the cliff hugging path to the golf club and view the miles of white sandy beach beyond. The sparkling courtyard pool might beckon, perfect for catching some African sun. Wile away the remainder of your day in the Orangery and Reading Room, perfect for quiet contemplation, a glass of champagne or planning your onward journey.
