Vensterklip is one of the most chilled out places on the planet. It’s quite OK to do absolutely nothing here. Just take in the scenery, enjoy our wonderful food and forget about that busy life you lead elsewhere. But if you want to push yourself, we have a wealth of diversions to help you get the best out of your time here.

Bird Watching
Verlorenvlei is a world reknowned wetland, with over 240 bird species visiting the area every year. From our Cape Nature bird hide on the Vlei you can regularly spot flamingos, pelicans, herons and fish eagles.

Kayaking and Swimming
The Vlei is a perfect spot for kayaking, especially early in the morning. The Vlei is too shallow for swimming, so instead you can enjoy our beautiful pool and lapa.
