About La Fontaine Hermanus

La Fontaine, a four-star guesthouse, is a family-run guesthouse in the centre of Hermanus. Famous for its prime whale-watching position, the guesthouse gets its name from its location next to the fresh water fountain around which the village of Hermanus was once founded. Every room is individually decorated with a tasteful blend of colonial style and relaxed beach comfort. The guesthouse offers decadent breakfasts to start the day and an inviting pool to take a dip in on hot summer days. And beyond the guesthouse itself, Hermanus offers a host of activities for you to enjoy. Wander through art galleries, shop in local boutiques, go wine tasting, and of course, feel the sand between your toes at beautiful beaches in the area. Ask your hosts for recommendations of their favourite restaurants and secret hikes.

It’s famous for whale-watching, but the wine is also worth a taste in this laidback coastal town.
