An exclusive 7 room guesthouse with unique views of Cape Town

Where

Perched at bottom of South Africa’s most iconic landmark, Table Mountain, it is all about location, location, location at the Mannabay.

Just imagine waking up to the Atlantic Ocean right outside of your themed room. Well it is all possible if you decide to book that flight to South Africa. You will be within easy access of major sites such as the South African National Gallery as well as Greemarket Square and the Victoria and Albert Waterfront.

Tell me about it

You are certainly in good hands at Mannabay so much so; they have achieved a 2013 World Travel Award nomination for being one of South Africa’s most exclusive boutique hotels.

Each room has been given a great deal of care and attention and has been beautifully designed in accordance with the luxury feel.

In fact you can choose from a theme according to your own styles and tastes. Feeling Japanese? Then go for the plush Oriental room or if you feel like a taste of the Orient, then cosy up in the elegant Persian room.

From the decadent marble bathrooms to the under floor heating and iPod docks, you can really enjoy living it up in style. There are a host of luxury toiletries available that utilises only the finest ingredients from across South Africa.

This features the revitalising Rooibos not to mention a variety of different oils from legendary mountain peaks such as Cape Snowbush and Blue Mountain Sage.

Hungry for more

Whether it’s the smell of freshly ground fair trade coffee that you can wake up to or the array of innovative cocktails on offer at the lounge bar, there is certainly plenty to soak up aside from a dip in the magnificent outdoor swimming pool.

You can even have the chance to enjoy an indulgent high tea which offers a range of delicious pastries and treats.

If you are more of a bookworm then the extensive library will satisfy even the hardiest of readers thanks to an impressive array of inspiring travel literature that will put you at one with Africa.

Indulge

There is only way to really spoil yourself at Mannabay and that is to go all out and book the grandiose Versailles suite.

This is bound to make you feel like the age old kings of the glorious Ancien Régime, minus the powdered wig of course! Benefit from a range of plush furnishings and sumptuous materials that will transport you to a grand old age when revolution was in the air.

Spoil yourself with the exclusive patio overlooking a koi carp pond and vistas over Cape Town itself. If you want to take things a little easier, then the dedicated lounge offers enough opportunities to unwind while the lavish freestanding tub will enable you to feel like a king or queen.

By the way

What better way to start the day or perhaps end it with a Chenin Blanc on the wooden deck with unforgettable ocean vistas that will live long in the memory. If that’s not enough, Mannabay can also help you organise several tours to Victoria Falls, the famous Garden Route and Kruger National Park.

Game on!
