The Details
POD Camps Bay sits on the slopes above Camps Bay, the Atlantic seaboard strip widely regarded as Cape Town's most glamorous beach address. The hotel looks out over the Camps Bay shoreline on one side and the Twelve Apostles mountain range on the other, with Lion's Head visible from the upper suites.
The architecture is deliberately understated: modern, clean lines and a green-build approach that lets the natural setting do the talking. The boutique scale, seventeen rooms in total, keeps the atmosphere intimate and the service personal, suited to a couple's escape or a longer Cape Town stay built around the city's beaches, restaurants and wine country.
Accommodation
Deluxe Suites
The 75 sq m Deluxe Suites are the flagship rooms, with an open-plan lounge, dressing room and bathroom, a double rain shower and bath, and a private balcony. Set on the first and second floors, they take in views of Camps Bay beach, the Twelve Apostles and Lion's Head.

These 45 sq m ground-floor rooms open onto a private pool deck with a plunge pool and a sunbathing patio framed by the Twelve Apostles mountain range.
