This resort has us planning our own trip!
Birkenhead House in Hermanus, South Africa, is one of those rare finds: elegant, intimate, and consistently on “best of” lists worldwide. Eleven suites. Cliffside views. Interiors by Liz Biden. And staff who seem to know your preferences before you do.
And then there are the whales. Between June and November, Hermanus is one of the world’s best spots for watching southern right whales.
We’ll make sure your stay includes private wine tastings in Hemel-en-Aarde, the perfect whale-watching suite, and those coveted dining reservations that turn a great trip into an unforgettable one.
