St Helena Bay Hotel & Spa

About this stay

The working harbour does the heavy lifting here: snoek boats come and go from Steenberg's Cove within sight of the sea-facing rooms, and the Vasco da Gama Monument marking the 1497 landing sits a short taxi ride away. The outdoor pool backs onto the same view, so mornings can start on the terrace watching the fleet head out before the wind picks up. Rooms stay simple rather than styled, air-conditioned with a straightforward ocean or harbour outlook and a business centre for anyone working remotely during the stay. Saint Helena Bay Restaurant is a minute's walk for dinner, and the whole address trades polish for proximity to the working side of the bay that gives this coast its character.
