The Arniston Hotel is internationally known as one of South Africa's greatest getaways. It is set in the beauty of white limestone cliffs, giant sand dunes, pristine beaches, stunning nature reserves and the aquamarine waters of the Indian Ocean.
Arniston is also called Waenhuiskrans (wagon house cliff), a name which originates from the shape of a giant's sea cave nearby. Tide permitting, the visitor can access this spectacular site.
While the Arniston Hotel offers the discerning traveller any imaginable luxury it is still perfectly well integrated into the simple world of an authentically preserved Cape fishing village.
The hotel and the villagers co-operate to the benefit of both and the restaurant's fame is based on the fresh produce caught daily by the local fishermen.
The culinary delight of a dinner at the Arniston Hotel is the crowning finale of a day well spent, since Arniston offers a host of activities for nature lovers and sports enthusiasts.
