From its humble beginnings on the then outskirts of Cape Town in 1994 to the 4* B&B experience it offers today just a stone’s throw away from Cape Town’s most famous strip, Ocean View House has remained true to its foundation: family. A family business which welcomes each and every guest as the newest member of the Ocean View family. With breath-taking views of the Atlantic Oceans before you and the 12 Apostles mountains standing watch behind you, our guests can find peace under the ancient Milkwood trees that shade our park-like gardens while exploring the mountain stream and koi ponds that dot the terrain. Retreat to one of the spacious 24 guestrooms and enjoy your delicious breakfast in the solitude of your balcony or terrace while you decide whether to take a tour of the peninsula or perhaps heads towards the nearby Camps Bay and enjoy a luxurious dining experience amongst the beautiful young things of Cape Town’s own Hollywood. Whatever your choice, Ocean View House remains your home away from home.
