- You love a small, intimate vibe (only 11 rooms) where staff know your name

常見問題與隱藏小貼士

Yes, current branding and major listings specify 'Adults Only', creating a quiet atmosphere.
Is there a gym?
Yes, a small but functional gym is on-site, plus a sauna.
How far is the city center?
It's about a 20-25 minute drive to the Cape Town City Bowl or V&A Waterfront.

內幕秘訣
- ✨
Ask Fabian or Jo for dinner reservations; they have pull at local hotspots like Foxcroft.
- ✨
The 'on-the-go' breakfast mentioned on Expedia is likely a data error; expect a proper sit-down garden meal.
- ✨
Request a room with a bathtub if that's important to you; some only have walk-in showers.
出發前需要知道的 5 件事
💡The owner is Ralf Schumacher, former F1 driver, which explains the German satellite TV channels.
💡Some booking sites weirdly list housekeeping as an 'extra charge' – this is likely a glitch, but worth clarifying.
💡The 'Standard' rooms are quite small for a 5-star property; the upgrade to Suite is worth the cash.
💡It's not a hotel in the traditional sense; it's a large, staffed estate, so the 'front desk' isn't a 24/7 bustling lobby.
💡The WiFi is fast and free, making it a surprisingly good spot for digital nomads seeking quiet.
