We stayed only for one night as we had a wedding up at Suikerbossie, but we were welcomed like old friends and Maryann and Marieka really went the extra mile for us. The location is great, with only a short walk to the harbour and beach. The breakfast is truly what you would expect from South African hosts - ABUNDANT,... More

The Beach House in Hout Bay, South Africa is heaven on earth. From the moment we stepped into the house we felt we were home. Our host Maryann and Marieka are the most welcoming hosts I have ever met. They were always accommodating and you always felt you `re special. On our first day I was asked what I liked... More

We can't thank the staff enough for our stay here! We spent 5 nights here in December and they made my girlfriend and I feel like family. The location was perfect, breakfast was spectacular and the hospitality was the best we had encountered almost anywhere in the world. The rooms are spacious although quite basic but there's so much to... More

Large rooms and some with a beach/harbour view. It is on a busy road so you will get some morning road noise as the local town gets on with the day. It has secure off street parking and a great common area with and outdoor relaxation space next to a sparkling pool.

A lovely place to stay at if you are planning a couple of days in Hout Bay. The rooms are clean and nice and the rooms on second floor have got a lovely view ocer Chapman's Peak and the mountains. Wonderful breakfast, especially the continental - with fruit, muesli, a big fruit platter and a lovely muffin.
