Do I need a visa to travel to South Africa?
Visa requirements vary depending on your nationality. Please refer to the official South African Department of Home Affairs website for up to date information: South African Visa Regulations.
If you are travelling with children, please make sure you comply with all child travel documentation requirements. These rules are strictly enforced, and failing to meet them may result in denied entry.
What currency is used in South Africa?
South Africa’s official currency is the South African Rand (ZAR). Major credit cards are widely accepted, and ATMs are readily available in urban areas.
Is it safe to travel in Cape Town?
Cape Town is a welcoming destination with many safe, well loved areas. As with all international travel, it is important to stay aware of your surroundings, avoid displaying valuables, and follow local advice.
We provide safety guidance for each property and are happy to assist with trusted drivers, transfers and concierge services.
What happens during loadshedding (power outages)?
South Africa has experienced scheduled power outages known as loadshedding. These are a very rare occurrence in Cape Town and will likely not occur during your stay.
Our properties are equipped with inverters, so essential comforts such as WiFi remain available. We recommend downloading the EskomSePush app for schedules.
When is the best time to visit Cape Town?
November to March is summer and the classic beach season, with long, hot days and the liveliest atmosphere in Camps Bay. It is also the busiest and most in demand period, particularly over December and January, so book early.
April, May, September and October are quieter shoulder months with mild weather and fewer crowds. June to November is Southern Right whale season, and the cooler winter months bring green landscapes, cosy evenings and a calmer pace.
How do I get from Cape Town International Airport to Camps Bay?
Cape Town International Airport is roughly 30 kilometres from Camps Bay, typically a 30 to 45 minute drive depending on traffic.
Ride hailing apps such as Uber and Bolt operate from the airport, car hire is available in the terminal, and we are happy to arrange a private transfer on request.
