Located at De Kelders, Walker Bay opposite Hermanus on the Whale Coast, the Whale Sanctuary Lodge is a truly unique destination. Comprising only six private, en suite rooms, this modern, but homely lodge is, as its name implies, a sanctuary from the frenetic pace of daily life. Built virtually on the Walker Bay shoreline, every room at the Whale Sanctuary Lodge offers breathtaking sea views and unsurpassed luxury.

At the Whale Sanctuary Lodge, European chic meets African elegance. The clean sophistication of exquisite marble and granite finishes blends seamlessly with the deep browns and blacks of rich leather furnishings and earthy tones of traditional African décor, to create a haven of luxury and serenity. Every room at the Whale Sanctuary Lodge is a unique experience in style and serenity - the perfect place to escape the world and rediscover the art of relaxation.

Situated right next door to the Whale Sanctuary Lodge is our in-house restaurant. The warm and cosy wood-built restaurant offers a selection of mouth-watering dishes in a setting that will make you want to linger and relax over a bottle of wine, long after you've finished your meal. The restaurant comprises a small, intimate main seating area, but also has two completely separate dining rooms to cater for private functions, conferences as well as business lunches and dinners.

The massive wooden deck that opens off the main eating area has views over the bay that will take your breath away, and is the perfect setting for an indulgent afternoon in the warm sun, with the whales and the sound of the ocean as company.

The restaurant is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner booking is essential. Be sure to try the chef's delicious original Cape Malay lamb curry. It's a true taste of the Cape.
