With the Twelve Apostle mountain range towering behind and the white sand of Camps Bay below, you couldn’t ask for a finer location.
The Bay Hotel is a stylish retreat popular with sun-seekers, glamour-hunters and celebrities for its retro glamour. Amazing views out over the water, plenty of space and an abundance of natural light combines with the laid-back atmosphere that permeates the resort to make it the ideal place to simply relax and unwind either before or after your thrilling South Africa adventure. Set to the backdrop of the Twelve Apostles mountain range, the location is not the only highlight to be found here. There are four pools, a spa and trendy bars and restaurants which attract the local crowd.

Facilities
A visit to Tides is a great way to start the day, with floor-to-ceiling windows showcasing magnificent views as you tuck into a delicious buffet breakfast. After a long day, head to Bistro @ The Bay where you can enjoy superb cuisine made from the finest locally-sourced seasonal ingredients. As the day fades, Sandy B Private Beach Club is the place to be. Here, suntanned socialites sip on refreshing mojitos and you can kick back and relax as you watch the sun dip below the horizon. For something a little quieter, Caamil's Bar is the intimate bar for wine, spirits and Champagne.

What's Included
Breakfast at Tides restaurant.
If you’re looking for tranquillity away from the vibrant strip of Camps Bay, head to the Mint Wellness Spa for a bit of pampering. The spa has three rooms, one which can be used for couples therapies. A spa bath is available for water treatments, and treatments can also be done around the pools so as not to lose time in the sun. Guests can choose from a variety of treatments, including facials, massages, manicures and pedicures, and make use of the sauna and steam room.
The Bay's facilities include an indoor padel court, tennis and squash courts. There's often volleyball on the beach at Camp's Bay and you are just a short stroll from shops and galleries along the promenade.
You are just across the road from Camps Bay beach, a wide expanse of sand which is popular with Capetonian families. If you would prefer a swim away from the Atlantic Ocean, both the main temperature-controlled pool and solar-heated Sandy B pool ensure comfort in the cooler months, while the cabana pools offer a great people-watching view of the main strip and beach.
Sandy B Private Beach Club is open for over 18s only.
