If You Are in a Hurry
Here’s a quick list of the best hotels in Cape West Coast
The Olive Tree Villa
The Olive Tree Villa is a sustainable villa in Yzerfontein, offering free WiFi, garden and terrace. Guests can take in the garden views and spend some time on the beach. It is set 2.9 km from Yzerfontein Beach and offers a lift. Featuring a private entrance, the villa allows guests to maintain their privacy.Incredible property, stunning location with views to die for and an amazing hostess and team which all made for a wonderful stay.We booked suite 3 (sadly suite 2 was already booked) and it was lovely - large comfy bed, small table and chairs, well equipped kitchen area, fabulous shower and most importantly lovely wide patio doors so that you can sit and idle away the hours watching the sea or more importunely the whales & dolphins. Both suites are great value for money and it is was available I would encourage anyone to book suite 2 as having the bedroom and lounge in separate rooms would be preferable.There is also a lovely outside area with comfy chairs and a lovely BBQ or braai. Sadly we only booked for a couple of nights but could have stayed for several more. Yzerfontein is a little remote, although its only about an 1 hour 15mins from the centre of Cape Town, and there aren't many attractions locally beyond some wine tasting and the West Coast National Park (which is a great place to visit) BUT thats the attraction. You feel a million miles away when you are at The Olive Tree and we spent hours just watching the sea / walking on the beach it was lovely....or admiring the ostriches who wander past.We also dined at Leeto restaurant in Paternoster - Karin recommended it and it's a bit of a drive (c 1 hour) but well worth it - we had a lovely meal there.A big thanks to Karin and the team for looking after us so well - it was also great to meet Sophie who was so friendly to both of us.We very much hope to be back ..... and soon.
