Places we love

A note of gratitude to the places that make our guests’ days in Cape Town, and to the people behind them.

Our own picks, never paid for. Links go to each place’s official website.

The Peninsula

  • Black Marlin

    Miller’s Point, Simon’s Town

    For seafood lunches above False Bay that our guests are still talking about at the end of their trip.

  • Cape Point Vineyards

    Noordhoek

    For unhurried picnics on the lawns above Noordhoek, the perfect pause after Chapman’s Peak.

  • Chapman’s Peak Drive

    Hout Bay to Noordhoek

    For looking after one of the Cape’s great coastal drives, and every guest who goes quiet on its first bends.

    For the view over the Stellenbosch valley that makes our guests reach for their cameras.

    delaire.co.za
