Wonderland was the most special place I’ve seen so far. The views you can get from around this house leave you in awe. Literally a dreamhouse with everything you could wish for. Waking up in this quiet jungle like atmosphere with the sounds of the nature gives you amazing morning energy. The staff of the house became almost like friends, they are incredibly sweet characters, everyone special and very helpful. The breakfast was super tasty including Eggs, with veggies & bacon, croissants and a breakfast Smoothie, always fresh on the go. Checking in and out was easy and fast. The host Patrick did a wonderful job with arranging all of our wishes so you can keep on dreaming. When you enter Wonderland you don’t want to leave anymore. There are so many things to discover in this house, you could spend a whole week venturing around. If you do want to leave, we also booked a Vineyard tasting right next door at Constantia Glen with an amazing Mountain View. Through an easy app system called Mydestination I booked a massage on the roof of the house in a green oasis which felt like a jungle. The masseuse was top notch.

    We enjoyed every single moment at Poseidon! It's a place of exceptional friendliness, comfort and hospitality! The location and view of Chapman's Drive and the entire bay are outstanding! The rooms are both stylish and cozy with a nice personal touch. The living room is really an invitation to both a quiet evening at the fireplace or a chat with other guests or the very interesting and friendly hosts. The breakfast was incredible!

    Great location to explore various highlights of Cape Town and surroundings. It is also an excellent place to just relax and enjoy the garden and views. Outstanding breakfast. Hout Bay has a fair amount of nice restaurants. We stayed for 5 nights and would come back again. Luis was a great host.

    The house is in a quiet, secluded location, but only a short stroll (or very short drive) from town. Our well equiped spacious room looked out onto a lovely green, hillside garden; plentiful birdsong and butterflies. We breakfasted and "sundowned" each day on a veranda directly outside our room. It was all delightful. Msrtin and Sue, the hosts, were charming, friendly and helpful in all things. We could not be more pleased we stayed at Hout Bay Hideaway and will do so again if/when we revisit the area.
