Detailed Reviews
We stayed 7 nights and traveled and explored all towns and places nearby, e.g. 5 minutes to Pringle Bay and 5 minutes to Betties Bay, also Gordons Bay, Kleinmond and Hermanus, etc...
Kapensis is very accessible and we had been looking forward to go back to our room with the very luxurious bed, shower and double basins after each day. The view through the large glass doors to Betties Bay was stunning.
All are very clean with cleaning services every day. If you need anything, your request is being attending to.
Breakfast every morning was also very special - you can eat everything on the menu and ask for more..
Was very special, thank you.

Excellent location, a short distance from the road, but at the same time quiet. The hotel is well-designed. Individual rooms have separate accesses from both sides - from the terrace and from the pool. High quality of services, cleanliness in the rooms. Katharina is an admirable woman, very hospitable. She booked us a restaurant in Pringle bay for dinner and it was another great experience. We traveled as a group of 11 friends for 2 weeks on bikes around the Cape Western and this was the place with the best service.

Breakfast was delicious - so many options - and you could choose to have it in your room, on your patio or in the guesthouse dining area.
Eating breakfast while staring into the mountains was a highlight for us!
There are the friendliest and sweetest rescue dogs which live on the property and my husband and I absolutely loved cuddling them and allowing them to join us for walks.
The host went out of her way to make a reservation for us at a restaurant of our choice for our anniversary, and also asked which wine we preferred for our room. There were even rose petals on the bed.
When we had a slight issue with the bath, she immediately asked if we would like to change rooms and when we happily declined, she gave us a vacant room's keys for us to come and go as we please, so we could use the bath when we wanted to.
We wish we stayed for more than one night!

A gem! The view of the beautiful nature, the comfortable bed and all the extra little details that made our stay memorable and gave us a peaceful break away from the city.
Bad weather was cheered up with a delicious Full English Breakfast made by the talented Katharina and she prepared a nice surprised for us to help celebrate a special day! The property is clean, safe and conveniently located between Pringle Bay and Betty's Bay. We will be back again, thank you to the lovely host - Katharina!

From arrival till departure we received excellent service. The lodge, and the facilities were perfect. We enjoyed lovely views and peaceful surroundings. The cute doggies are a bonus for animal lovers. The host made a dinner booking on our behalf in town and the restaurant she chose did not disappoint.

My family and I had a wonderful stay at Kapensis Guesthouse. The rooms are extremely comfortable with gorgeous views and breakfast is excellent. The pristine beaches of Pringle Bay and Betty's Bay are a very close - perfect beaches for kids to play and great for long, peaceful walks . Lots of options for eating out. Will definitely return to this lovely spot.

We turned up at Katharinas with quite short notice, but she was very welcoming, reccommended and booked somewhere for an evening meal and supplied a fabulous breakfast in the morning.
The rooms are very comfortable and decorated very well, the bed is comfortable and the choice of pillows excellent.
The views from the room are fabulous, out over the mountains and Betties Bay.
Would not hesitate to stay here againand would reccommend for everyone.
Thanks Katharina, you are one in a million :-)

It was our second visit and we loved it as much as the first time. The host Katarina is amazing... The location is fabulous and views incredible. We had the best time by the pool sipping cocktails. The food is amazing because is made of fresh local produce and with love of course... We can highly recommend their pizzas :) hmm so delicious!
If you are searching for a nice and budget-friendly getaway please choose Kapensis. You won't be disappointed! We are looking forward to go back again - hopefully soon!

A massive thank you from the bottom of my heart to Katharina and her staff for showing tremendous hospitality and going above and beyond to accommodate our little family! I mentioned in passing that it was my son's birthday and we arrived to a fully decked out room of balloons, decorations and even cupcakes and candles!! Katharina made herself available to us with all our special requests and the space was beautiful, very well stocked and spacious. I would give it 11 out of 10 if I could. Absolutely stunning!!

What a wonderful weekend experience. The guesthouse is situated in an ideal location close to all local amenities. We were treated first class and were even upgraded at no extra cost. If relaxing by the pool or watching the expansive night skies is in your itinerary, this place has it all to offer. No detail was too much, including a first class Champagne breakfast, Champagne for your own cost. There is plenty to do in the local area with first class restaurants, such as Gunucchi in Betty's Bay, and Hook Line and Sinker in Pringle Bay, to mention a few. Overall loved it and it helps if you love your dogs as we do as there are some very loving dogs at the property keeping a watchful eye over the place :-)
