Hout Bay Reviews
Beautiful place
Vibrant night life. Big variety of restaurants and food. Clean beaches and market has a big variety of items. Great way te spend a summers day. Packing is limited though so getting there early is key.
We had a wonderful time e.g. at the market.
Beaches, restaurants, friendly people.
The views, everything.
We have always loved Hout Bay.
I love everything about Hout Bay and about. The hosts are very welcoming and the presentation of everything was up to standard. The breakfast is delicious 😋😋😋
We have always loved Hout Bay. Scenic, peaceful, lovely eateries and shops.
A secluded little town with tranquil seas, a place to reflect and be close to all amenities needed.
Lovely beach and restaurants near by, surrounded by scenic mountains.
The views!
