Built into the foothills of the Twelve Apostles mountains that overlook the Atlantic Ocean, Camps Bay beach and Lion’s Head peak, Sea Star Rocks is a slick boutique hotel with only a handful of suites and plenty of personality. While the outdoor views will take your breath away, the interiors hold their own imported designer furniture, gleaming surfaces and huge blowups of Tretchikoff artworks, a world-famous seminal South African painter.

Lying up a steep, winding road and backing onto Table Mountain National Park, Sea Star Rocks allows you to be removed from the hustle and bustle of the Camps Bay Strip. The suites all open out onto expansive decks that offer unquestionably the best sunset views in the city.
