Colona Castle

Set atop a terraced hill overlooking False Bay, this quiet boutique hotel is housed in a 1929 villa designed in a Mediterranean style, with yellow stucco walls and a pool terrace surrounded by landscaped gardens. Each of the eight guest rooms is individually styled based on a distinct theme; for instance, the Safari Suite has animal-print pillows and Africa-motif lamps, while the Chinese Suite contains lacquered furniture and traditional folding screens. Most rooms also have an adjacent patio with panoramic views of Table Mountain, Sandvlei Lake, False Bay, and distant vineyards. Room rates include a breakfast of local organic cuisine.
