Blouberg Beach Retreat in 7441, open January–November.
Blouberg Beach Retreat sits directly along the Atlantic coastline where unobstructed views of Table Mountain dominate the horizon, with the mountain rising 1,086 meters across the bay.
Golden sand stretches in both directions while the venue's contemporary architecture frames panoramic ocean vistas from multiple indoor and outdoor spaces.
The location captures both dramatic mountain scenery and the raw energy of the South African coast.
We have been there twice and will definitively come back. The first time round, we could, after a week add another two without fret. It is a modest place, but the welcome is warm, help is always extended and we feel at home. The pool is also most welcome and we enjoyed it every day. If you are happy with a simple and friendly holiday, it is the place.
