Tucked away on the slopes above Hout Bay’s picturesque harbor, The Hout Bay Hideaway lives up to its name—offering a tranquil, luxurious escape that many visitors say feels like discovering a well-kept secret. With breathtaking views of the ocean, mountains, and lush indigenous gardens, our guesthouse is more than just a place to stay—it’s an experience that captures the soul of coastal Cape Town living.
What sets The Hout Bay Hideaway apart is its intimate charm and sense of seclusion, all while being conveniently close to the beach, shops, restaurants, and some of Cape Town’s most scenic drives. Whether you’re here to explore Chapman’s Peak, enjoy the local markets, or simply unwind, this is the perfect base for it all.
Each of our beautifully appointed suites is designed with comfort, privacy, and individuality in mind. Antique furnishings, private terraces, and thoughtful touches create a warm, inviting atmosphere that guests often describe as “a home away from home.” Wake to the sound of birdsong, relax by the saltwater pool, or enjoy a glass of wine at sunset with panoramic views stretching across the bay.
We pride ourselves on offering warm, personalized hospitality. Whether it’s a local restaurant recommendation, help with planning your day, or a peaceful moment in the garden, our goal is to make every guest feel welcomed and cared for.
In a world of big hotels and crowded tourist spots, The Hout Bay Hideaway offers something rare—genuine peace, character, and connection. It’s no wonder our guests return again and again. Come see why we’re one of Hout Bay’s true hidden gems.
