Arniston Hotel

Ariston Hotel is in the town it was named after in South Africa's Overberg region, near Cape Agulhas, the southernmost tip of Africa, where the Atlantic and Indian Oceans meet. The rugged coastline adjacent to the town features the cave known as Waenhuiskrans (Wagon house cliff). Reaching the town requires a scenic drive of about two and a half hours from Cape Town.

The luxury personal Arniston Hotel hosts guests in 67 stylishly decorated rooms. The rooms feature crisp, white linens and ocean hues to create an inviting ambiance. The deluxe sea-facing rooms have private balconies with uninterrupted views of the bay's clear blue waters. All rooms are en suite, and most have a fireplace for chilly winter evenings. The rooms have tea and coffee facilities and wireless internet access.

The hotel serves delicious seafood and delectable blends of traditional South African cuisine. A cozy wine cellar can be booked for an intimate private dinner experience. To enhance their stay, guests may explore the surroundings and stroll to the harbor, where they can watch fishing boats or visit the small fishing village of Kassiesbaai. One can also walk to the Waenhuiskrans Caves at low tide or take a longer walk to Struis Point, Galjoengat, or the De Mond Nature Reserve. The area has many good fishing spots, and deep-sea fishing trips may be arranged. The waters are safe for swimming, but temperatures can be quite chilly!
