The 20 Best Boutique Hotels in Western Cape (2026)

Guest Review: Fantastic hotel, with friendly and very helpful staff only too happy to help. Rooms were spacious with an impressive choice at breakfast every morning. Perfect location just off the main street, with all shops and restaurants within easy walking distance. At 3pm every day, a freshly made (and always delicious) cake was laid out for residents to enjoy.

Guest Review: The environment was beautiful and relaxing. The restaurant had amazing food that made me feel fresh and revitalised. The chef even took the opportunity to explain each meal which was a wonderful surprise. The hotel is very much comfortable but what brings the magic is that they are very much environmentally conscience (using coffee beans instead of pods). The pool offered me a great experience as a vacationer. The landscape is so beautiful that I got lost in it. The only negative thing I have to say about it is that I had to leave that place. The staff were amazing and I will definitely go back.

Guest Review: Our stay at Garden Route Safari Camp was absolutely unforgettable! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel more than welcome – we felt instantly at home. Their warmth, friendliness, and attention to detail were truly exceptional.The food was very good, exceeding all our expectations with every meal. It’s clear they put a lot of thought and care into the dining experience. Our safari guide was amazing – knowledgeable, patient, and passionate about the wildlife. They took the time to explain everything in detail, making each drive an enriching and fascinating experience. It was heartwarming to see how well the animals are treated and respected here. We honestly could have stayed much longer. The camp is a gem, and we can’t wait to return for another adventure. We hope that when they will also start with Day visits, this experience will not change for the ones who stay over night!
