The host of activities and facilities offered in this unique environment makes The Western Cape Hotel and Spa the ideal stay over venue for business travellers, leisure travellers, and incentive and conference groups. For those who simply wish to relax, de-stress and be pampered in style, the AltiraSPA offers world-class facilities and wellness programmes.

From the moment you enter the Arabella Country Estate premises, you immediately get the feeling that you are about to experience something totally unique. Even the polite efficient security at the gate, impressive as it is, couldn’t prepare you for the magnificent sights that you catch glimpses of on your short drive from the main entrance to the hotel. At the impressive hotel entrance, you again notice how efficient and friendly the hotel’s staff is.
The short walk from reception to your room is a rather pleasant experience, with views of the lagoon, golf course, pool area, mountain ranges and gardens. The walk also offers a foretaste of what the Laguna Lounge, Cristobal’s Cigar Bar and Barnabas’ Bar have to offer.

Your card key not only offers you exclusive entry into your room, but also activates the lights in the room. So, when you leave your room, you automatically switch the lights off, a great energy saving initiative, which is appropriate in this Biosphere Reserve area.
When you open your terrace door, you will notice that the air conditioning automatically switches off and when you close the door, it automatically switches on again.

The rooms too are luxurious and unique to say the least. The tasteful choice of décor clearly communicates a first world influence within a South African coastal African theme.

• Take the N2 from Cape Town over Sir Lowry’s Pass, turn on to the R43 to Hermanus, right at the R44 to Kleinmond and turn into Arabella Country Estate. Or take the spectacularly scenic coastal route (off the N2 from Cape Town) from Gordon’s Bay, passing through Betty’s Bay and Kleinmond.
