The room was spotless and the staff were extremely courteous. From check in to check out - all the staff were extremely friendly! The room size was fantastic and very quiet too! We were pleasantly surprised at how comfortable it was and how easy it was to access the Hermanus Cliff Path.

We had a lovely stay at The Marine. The staff was extremely kind and helpful and the room and lounge were beautifully decorated. Also, it is conveniently located on the cliff path and near the shop, which was perfect. We highly recommend!

What are some of the general tips for travellers to Whale Coast during the COVID-19 outbreak?
If it's your first time travelling during the COVID-19 pandemic, you'll no doubt notice a few more restrictions and standards in place. Take note of these tips and make your escape to Whale Coast a smooth one:
  • Find out what rules and restrictions apply to both your origin and destination. It may not be possible to travel depending on local circumstances, so don't forget to check before you lock in your flight.
  • Wear a face mask during airport screening. A TSA officer will ask you to lower your mask temporarily to verify your identity.
  • To decrease the risk of cross-contamination, position your boarding pass on the reader yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your pass directly to a TSA employee.
  • TSA now permits passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on luggage. This will have to be removed from your bag for screening.
  • To minimize handling during the screening process, put items such as your keys, wallet, phone and belt into your carry-on instead of into the bins.
  • Separate any food you have for X-ray screening. Food items often trigger the alarm. Putting them in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA employee to handle and inspect your belongings.
