Camps Bay Beach is a ten-minute walk away, and Table Mountain National Park is nearby.

Wellness & Spa

The Mint Wellness Spa offers treatments in forest spa pods with private hot tubs. The spa includes a sauna, steam room, and spa lounge with relaxation areas. Spa facilities are available for all guests, and open-air baths are also part of the wellness offering.

Activities & Sports

A private padel court and a tennis court are available for guest use. The hotel provides tennis equipment and has direct access to walking trails on the reserve. Beachfront location allows swimming in the Atlantic and sunbathing on sun loungers by the pools.

“Camps Bay Retreat offers a unique, secluded experience on four acres of private nature reserve. I especially like the blend of old-world charm found in the manor house, contrasted with the modern wellness amenities like the forest spa pods. The location, slightly removed from the bustling Camps Bay beachfront, creates a serene escape with easy access to both the beach and hiking trails.”
