Accommodation in South Africa
South Africa has a wide range of accommodation options - thousands of bed and breakfasts, youth hostels and hotel standards varying up to five star luxury. Use the accommodation booking engine below to compare establishments.
Top rated establishments are:
Liberty Lodge B&B, Tamboerskloof (Cape Town). Room tips - Ghandi & Madiba have good views and lead onto the terrace. |
On the Spot B&B at St Francis Bay, for its solitude, close proximity to walks along an uncrowded beach, and friendly owners. |
Christiana Lodge, in Plettenberg Bay, with its views over the marshy wetlands from the balconies, from which you can hear the frogs croaking at night. Upstairs rooms have better views. |
Cliff Lodge in Gansbaai for the views over Walker Bay. Choose the Ocean Suite on the top floor for privacy & views. Best during whale season. Ask owners to arrange a massage. |
Berg & Zee Guest house in Gordon's Bay for views over False Bay (top floor rooms are best). Leave your sliding doors open at night & listen to the ocean. |
Safety tip - try book your hotel room between the 2nd and 6th floors of the hotel, as being on at least the second floor creates a gap between yourself and dangers near reception (e.g. robberies, car-bombs, shootouts, etc...). Don't go above the 6th floor as ladders don't reach above that in the case of fire.

"In a curious twist South Africa's slow economy and resultant pull back in building activity that has limited new hospitality development has impacted positively on our business. The renewed energy for the Zimbali Lakes project has been reinforced by the continued demand for property within the Zimbali Coastal Resort. The last quarter of 2012 has seen a subtle change to the market providing a sense of optimism for 2013 and beyond. There is a sense that we have turned the corner although the road ahead is steep with many challenges." |
