Ocean Eleven is a Cape Cod, Colonial style luxury guest house, situated on the famous cliffs of Hermanus. The picturesque mountains beyond gently embrace the phenomenal, all encompassing vista of Walker Bay. In keeping with the utter elegance of Colonial architecture, the Ocean Eleven main house was built with high ceilings, tall windows and teak floors, all features – and thus the grace and style – have been retained to this day. Ocean Eleven Luxury Guest House boasts ten beautifully appointed rooms made up of three standard, five deluxe and two suites, each with an all-embracing sea view over Walker Bay.
Accommodation
Situated on the ground floor of the luxury guest house, are the three standard rooms, two of which are in the original house, and therefore have the original floors, high ceilings and windows that open out onto the garden. The third room, adjacent to the swimming pool, features French Doors leading out onto the deck and all three provide en-suite accommodation with a shower. There are a wide variety of Deluxe Rooms, three of which are situated near the pool – either upstairs or on the ground level. The fourth room has a separate entrance and its own balcony and the fifth, situated in the old house has the original floors, a walk-in dressing room and French Doors opening onto the garden. All Deluxe rooms are en-suite with a bath and shower. Both suites on offer are situated loft-style in the old roof of the house and are spacious, air-conditioned and have en-suite bathrooms with a bath and shower. The first, is the Honeymoon Suite for newlyweds, while the second includes a sleeper couch that can accommodate a third person for Bed & Breakfast at an additional fee.
Activities
Hermanus, with its infamous cliffs boosting 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. The best time to spot the whales is between May and December when they leave their Antarctic feeding ground and travel to the warm waters of the Cape Coast. All along this coast, as well as from the comfort of The Ocean Eleven Luxury Guest House, 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.
