Rooms with Sea Views
Amakhaya Lodge has a King Room with Sea View, a Double Room with Mountain View, and a Family Room. Every room has a view of the sea or the mountain. Each unit comes with a flat-screen TV, an electric kettle, a refrigerator, and a private bathroom. Some rooms open onto a balcony with sea views. The Elephant Room is spacious and overlooks the bay. The Family Room is large, clean, and has a terrace. Kitchenware is provided for guests who want to cook.
Pool and Hot Tub
Outside, the lodge has a year-round outdoor swimming pool, a hot tub, a sun terrace, and a garden. The pool is heated. Guests can use the shared kitchen, the outdoor fireplace, and the barbecue facilities. A lounge and outdoor seating area are also available.
Leisure and Local Walks
Sandy Bay Naturist Beach is 2 km away. World of Birds is 2 km away, and Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden is 12 km away. Table Mountain is 18 km away. The owners know the Western Cape and can suggest walks, including a route on Llandudno Beach. One owner, Glen, is a licensed guide.
Location and Getting Around
The lodge sits in Hout Bay, about 15 minutes from Camps Bay and 5 minutes from Chapman's Peak. It is a short drive to Woodstock and the Constantia wineries. Hout Bay Harbour and Cape Point are also nearby. Cape Town International Airport is 32 km away. Free private parking is available.
Services and Practicalities
Free WiFi is available in public areas, and an invoice is provided. The hosts are reachable and helpful. They can arrange airport pick-ups and excursions, and they run a car and Harley motorcycle rental service.
“This lodge sits at a really advantageous spot, away from the city bustle yet a short drive to both Camps Bay and the dramatic Chapman's Peak. The heated pool and available kitchen are certainly draws, but what stood out most was the genuine hospitality and the opportunity to tap into the owner's local knowledge for excursions. It strikes me as a place that truly wants guests to feel settled and informed during their stay.”
