Every B & B says their situation is 'idyllic' but Makapa Lodge can indeed lay claim to this adjective.
Situated in Capri Village with a glorious view of the Atlantic Ocean and Noordhoek Beach in front, the Noordhoek Amphitheatre to the right and a nature reserve with proteas and fynbos on its left, this is the perfect spot to explore the beautiful Cape Peninsula.
Set in a natural garden with guinea fowl, tortoises and singing birds (there are 80 recorded species in the area), the luxury suites and well-equipped timber cottage offer a haven after a day's sightseeing in the glorious Cape.
Comfortable bed and breakfast or self catering accommodation in quiet, safe surroundings only 35 minutes from the city centre.This friendly Cape Town guest house is nestled against the mountain in Capri Village, Fish Hoek and offers visitors to the city a comfortable stay in beautiful surroundings with beautiful views of the sea and mountains.
All this is within a short drive to the beaches at Fish Hoek, Kommetjie, Noordhoek and Simonstown. Central to whale viewing, Cape Point Nature Reserve, Boulders Beach with its famous Jackass Penguins, Constantia and other wine wine routes, Noordhoek art route, Kirstenbosch and many focal points.

Don't miss the Castle Good Hope and the Botanic Company Gardens, which lead to the Parliament buildings. Then head for the harbour and the amazing V & A Waterfront for a myriad of shops and restaurants serving fish and crayfish brought in daily by the fishermen, all that is just a drive away from Makapa Lodge. Then there are scores of little historic Cape towns and villages to the North and East, which you will definitely have to come back to explore.
