Wind-Rose Guest House  

Perched at the foot of the Hottentot Holland mountain range in Gordons Bay, Cape Town, Wind-Rose Guest House is a private coastal retreat with views down to the Atlantic. You're a short drive from Blue Rock Adventure Park, Waterkloof and Vergelegen wine estates, the Cape Floral Region Protected Areas and local beaches. This Helderberg Rural guesthouse is family-friendly and ideal for wine tasting, hiking and whale watching.

Spread over a hectare of indigenous fynbos, the property blends cosy communal lounges, a fireplace and a traditional South African braai (bbq) area that opens onto a crystal-clear pool. Rooms are air-conditioned and comfy with Select Comfort/pillowtop beds, refrigerators, TVs, bathrobes and deep soaking bathtubs. The vibe is relaxed and slightly luxe—your home-away-from-home with ocean glimpses and local touches.

Take a dip in the outdoor pool, hit the 24-hour fitness center, rent bicycles or unplug in the arcade and library. There’s complimentary wireless internet across the property, tour desk and shuttle arrangements, free self-parking and playrooms for kids. Expect sea-breeze mornings, a BBQ area for social evenings and plenty of outdoor trails nearby.

The guesthouse offers a 700 sq ft conference center plus a meeting room and business center for events and small meetings. Express check-in, laundry/dry cleaning, multilingual staff, luggage storage and an airport shuttle (surcharge) round out the practical perks, with complimentary Wi‑Fi keeping you connected.

Wrap up the day at the bar/lounge or fire up the communal braai for a proper South African meal. Limited room service is available and full breakfast is served daily (hours vary); nearby wine estates and coastal eateries bring local Cape flavors to your table.
