Everything was a discovery; every ambiance would lead you to something unreal, magical. Words really cannot describe the beauty of this gem. It’s really a different concept from common hotels and an experience that it’s worth the try. Also the staff is amazing.

My partner and I had an amazing stay at Bluemarie’s Retreat. Jan and his wife were attentive, accommodating hosts that went above and beyond to make our stay special. The room we stayed in was modern, spacious, clean and had everything we needed. Breakfast was 10/10. The location is also central and easy to navigate. Will definitely be back again!

Cozy rooms and nice ambience, convenient position close to beaches, shops and restaurants but also Constantia wineries and Cape Town city centre. Definitely good value for the money. But the real plus of the lodge is its host Alex, who made his best to make us feel at home and enjoy our staying at most. Our trip would not have been so rich and pleasant without his precious advices and suggestions and, of course, his famous smoothies!

A very aesthetic and beautiful place. The view and the air are amazing. We stayed in a large apartment — bright and spacious. A transfer from the airport was arranged for us. After a long flight, we were able to sleep well on the comfortable bed. The owners - Jacques and Jenn are warm and welcoming people. The service staff is friendly and attentive. The entire estate and the surrounding area are harmonious. If you exit through the gate in the backyard and walk through the vineyards, you can reach the Groot Constantia estate and the Simon’s restaurant. You can also hop on the red bus and enjoy an exciting sightseeing tour. One of the best places we have stayed in Cape Town.

We enjoyed every single moment at Poseidon! It's a place of exceptional friendliness, comfort and hospitality! The location and view of Chapman's Drive and the entire bay are outstanding! The rooms are both stylish and cozy with a nice personal touch. The living room is really an invitation to both a quiet evening at the fireplace or a chat with other guests or the very interesting and friendly hosts. The breakfast was incredible!

Great location to explore various highlights of Cape Town and surroundings. It is also an excellent place to just relax and enjoy the garden and views. Outstanding breakfast. Hout Bay has a fair amount of nice restaurants. We stayed for 5 nights and would come back again. Luis was a great host.

The house is in a quiet, secluded location, but only a short stroll (or very short drive) from town. Our well equiped spacious room looked out onto a lovely green, hillside garden; plentiful birdsong and butterflies. We breakfasted and "sundowned" each day on a veranda directly outside our room. It was all delightful. Msrtin and Sue, the hosts, were charming, friendly and helpful in all things. We could not be more pleased we stayed at Hout Bay Hideaway and will do so again if/when we revisit the area.
