Facilities & Activities

Facilities include a heated swimming pool and a relaxing sun deck with ocean views. If you’re lucky, you might spot a Southern Right whale whilst chilling on the deck (whale watching season is from June – October). The seafront location lends itself to strolls along the beach, leisurely picnics (baskets can be arranged by the hotel), swimming in the fresh Atlantic Ocean, sunbathing, or surfing for all skill levels. Surfboards and wetsuits are available for rent close-by and lessons can be arranged. In season, guests have the opportunity to catch their own West Coast lobster, which can be prepared for dinner.

The area is great for nature walks and cycling, and horse-riding on the beach is popular, offering a new perspective of this beautiful coastline.

Spa treatments, including massages, are available upon request, perfect to help you relax after a day exploring the stunning Peninsula!
