Hidden gem. The food was excellent Asian Fusion in a tapas (small portion) style. Offers a well considered wine list of favorites and unknowns. Wonderful setting for a lazy lunch or afternoon drinks. Hard to believe you are in the middle of bustling Camps Bay. Interesting gardens and walking paths. Flawless.
Amazing location the view from the restaurant is just stunning! Watching the sunset from the terrace whiles enjoying a delicious cocktail - unbeatable! The restaurant is nothing less than outstanding! Every single dish was absolutely divine topped by outstanding warm and professional service! Thanks Benson great job!!!
Autumn has never looked this good than how I saw it in South Africa and more precisely at Camps Bay Retreat. We’ve spent 2 nights in this amazing property and it was like tunnel through space and time, where everything had that old school charm. When we first got there it was super sunny and nice, so we took these pictures and then relaxed on the grass having a glass of wine. We’ve seen then the most spectacular red sunset. The dinner was exquisite, so was the wine and the location, a dream.
The next day was rainy with some interruptions, but I must say that it was the best rainy day of my life, without exaggeration. I cannot think of a better place to be on a rainy day than Camps Bay Retreat. The have there on the property the most amazing, funny, smart and playful dog, Bengers with whom I fell in love with and spent the entire day with her. First she came to me with a tennis ball in her mouth. We’ve played a lot, I threw her the ball and then she brought it back. When she got tired we’ve stayed near the fireplace and chilled. They have in there and impressive room filled with books, old coins, chess table and everything you can possibly need to have a wonderful rainy day.
The view from our room was like a painting where the deep blue ocean meets the green jungle of their property. It was indeed a dream and Camps Bay has been my favourite location from South Africa. I truly, honestly recommend you stay at Camps Bay Retreat for a magical and unforgettable experience.
A truly beautiful place, right near the beach in Camps Bay. Friendly, welcoming staff. Everything you could want. One small fussy complaint is that breakfast is not buffet, so you order from the menu, which is fine, but it does take a while, so if you are in a hurry to go somewhere, just plan for that. Breakfast was amazing though. Lovely place, I definitely recommend it.
This hotel has the most amazing location and grounds, with spectacular views of the ocean and Lion's head. Our suite in the manor house was also beautiful and spacious. Pity all this picturesque beauty was in such stark contrast to the dismal service we received. Staff are poorly trained and some are just flat out rude. The restaurant service was frustratingly slow (even for Cape Town) and the sunset picnic basket was a letdown. On checkout we were presented with an outrageous room bill, containing charges for accommodation we had already paid for, and room service we never ordered, and not so much as an explanation or apology has yet been received from anyone at this hotel.
