Your Arniston Spa Hotel Experience

Just two hours’ drive from the hustle and bustle of Cape Town, The Arniston Spa Hotel has long been our top accommodation recommendation for visitors to this sleepy little locale. The property is well-sized with a contemporary style that emphasises those sweeping sea views which are a stand out feature.
This 4-star spa hotel offers five types of room styles, making it suitable for all types of travellers, and it also stands as the perfect base from which to explore the surrounding area and partake in all sorts of outdoor activities. Within just a short stroll from your bed, you’ll find yourself wiggling your toes in the pearly white sand. You can swim, snorkel and picnic to your heart’s content, and if you’ve got the kids in tow, they are more than welcome to make use of the boogie boards, volleyballs kits, and soccer balls.
The Arniston Spa is exceptionally child-friendly, with child-minding services available, kiddies menus and well-organised programmes on the go during the school holidays. However, if you’re here as a couple, you can still experience a peaceful holiday filled with intimate dining experiences, sundowners at sunset, and relaxing afternoons at the state-of-the-art spa.
