Camp next to a fire or wake to crashing waves
Updated: 24 June, 2021
Spend the weekend roughing it out under the stars next to a warm fire in Cederberg. Now would be a great time to take the whole family away to Hermanus and greet the whales or splurge a bit on a dream accommodation special in Hout Bay. There are plenty of choices, and we've handpicked some of the best getaway specials around town.
Start your day to the sound of crashing waves and views of breaching whales in Hermanus with an incredible room special. Set right in front of the ocean above the cliff rocks, you’re treated to restaurants, galleries, museums and nature trails all within walking distance to your seafront facing stay at the Windsor Hotel.
Accommodation special: Book a weekend and have kids under 12 stay for free at the Windsor Hotel
Availability: Now until the end of August
To do close by: Apart from the main attraction of the whales, every first Friday of the month 22 local galleries open their doors for guests to stroll through the Hermanus Art Walk

Accommodation special: The usual rate of R45 000 per night has dropped by R20 000 for a special winter rate at Samadhi House
Availability: 1 May until the end of September
To do close by: You’re spoilt for choice when it comes to dining out at Beau Constantia and La Colombe or The Foodbarn in Noordhoek
