Equipped with solar inverter system Fringing beaches and Peacock Blue waters give way to undulating swells of seafoam and craggy cliffs reaching The Hemingway House in Hermanus – a slice of heaven overlooking the gentle whales in Walker Bay. This is the ultimate place to revitalize and energize, disconnect and reconnect – the home is as inviting as it is inspiring with earthy artisan finishes, and unexpected creature comforts. Clad with natural stone from the area, this enchanting home was built right on the famous Hermanus cliff path which was bestowed the honor of being an UNIESCO World Heritage site because of its biodiversity. The home exemplifies ocean and tranquility -- skirted with frilly fynbos and wildflowers and cooled by sea breezes where you can watch the changing tides and whales from your bed. Charmingly built to maximize your experience while you enjoy a gourmet cappuccino in the casual pajama lounge with uninterrupted views of the ocean, or lounge by the heated pool hidden in a beautiful Tuscan courtyard and shielded from the wind, anchored by an imposing outdoor fireplace – perfect for long meals, lingering evening conversations and a game of cards. The enchanting interior is cool in the summer with its clay tiled floors, and in the winter, the home is deeply cozy with fires crackling in the home’s eight fireplaces. Organic materials have been used throughout the home, bringing the natural world harmoniously into the home with hand crafted furniture and décor sourced artisans throughout Africa. Whether you are preparing a meal from locally caught fish or have just awoken in the one of the several ocean facing rooms – your view of breathtaking Walker Bay is unencumbered. Step out onto your private bedroom balcony to take in the salty ocean air or linger in the bathtub with complimentary bath salts and reading a booked plucked from one of the many bookshelves, the setting is quite literally jaw dropping mountains – with a backdrop of imposing mountains, and a trail that is dotted with little bays and beaches – this will be a holiday to remember. The home has every creature comfort with six gorgeous bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, three kitchens, two bars and one wine cellar – there is ample room to snack on a boerie roll and swirl an Old Fashioned, or take your time cooking a meal to remember, followed by a nightcap in the cozy wine cellar with the fire burning. During the day, take advantage of the retractable glass doors run the length of the home, opening up onto a wide verandah and pool courtyard. You’ll relive the day in your mind from a morning coffee in the pajama lounge watching the whales through the morning mist drifting off Walker Bay, and hearing the chorus of birds come to life in the proteas that surround the property, to picnicking on a hidden sandy beach, or strolling through the nearby galleries and wineries. This contemporary yet comfy and capacious hideaway, invite long conversations around the fireplace next to the pool, stargazing from the jacuzzi overlooking the water, and lazy mornings in bed. This also makes a perfect work retreat with a solar inverter system and high speed internet which ensure that you have connectivity when you need it. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Heated pool - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 6 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 7.5 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Bidet - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Books - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair - Printer ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near the bay - Near the marina - Near the ocean ### Things to do - Bicycles - Heated pool - Birdwatching nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Whale watching nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Bicycles - Garden ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 3:00 PM Minimum check-in age - 25 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Pets Pets not allowed ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a private host (a party not acting within their trade, business or profession).
