The warm Indian Ocean waters play at the feet of the exquisite Views Boutique Hotel & Spa. An idyllic paradise from which to unlock the secrets of South Africa’s famed Garden Route, and a mere 20 minutes from George Airport, this luxury hotel perches high over the spectacular coastline.

The expansive Wilderness Beach is reason enough to visit Views. Here it really does seem as though time has stood still with kilometers of safe, secluded and uninterrupted beach waiting to be discovered at the bottom of the boardwalk. The coast is constantly patrolled by dolphins, often seen exuberantly surfing the break. In calving season Southern Right whales use this area as a nursery sometimes coming close inshore, allowing a privileged sighting.

Views Boutique Hotel & Spa has 18 exquisitely furnished rooms and suites designed for absolute comfort. Modern, eclectic and fresh, all have private en-suite bathrooms that are sure to delight. Natural light floods through frameless glass windows, bringing the outdoors in – offering spectacular Indian Ocean views to the south and the Outeniqua Mountains to the north.
