    The hospitality that Derk and Yvonne showed us was absolutely wonderful, from start to finish they could not do enough for us and be more welcoming into their home. We have traveled all over the world and this place was easily the best b&b we have...

Dirk & Yvonne Marx
At the White Pearl our aim is too spoil our guests. The rooms are individually stylishly decorated with a fresh modern look and feel. The rooms have views of the courtyard and surrounding gardens. On the upper sundeck you will have magnificent views of the surrounding mountains and sea. The guests can enjoy access to a shared lounges and garden. The property is architecturally designed, to give a feeling of space, tranquility and calmness.
Located in Hermanus, 1.5 km from the Village, White Pearl is a stone throw from the world renowned cliff paths and land based whale watching. We are situated in the sunniest part of Hermanus. Wine tasting in the Hemel & Aarde Valley is just 4 km from White Pearl.
