Design Hotel
It's one of the prettiest stretches of beach we've ever seen, Camps Bay located 10-minutes outside central Cape Town offers a suburban beach bohemia laden with chic bars, cool eateries and a burgeoning scene of design hotels like POD. Walls of glass, concrete finishes and infinity pool that wow define this three-floor architectural compound with mountainous Lion's Head backdrop. What feels like a private beach club; visitors lumbar around indoor-outdoor spaces that surround a lobby lounge of wrap-around sectionals dotted with petrified wood cocktail tables. A small bar tucked inside an alcove of reclaimed wood paneling divides the lounge from a 8-table dining room where morning breakfast is served till 11am in summer. And just outside is the pool deck, compact in size but just big enough to layout on afternoons when the 25-steps to the beach simply feels to far away from the bar.
The Room
Sexy beach pads do offer a “pod” like feel with wrap-around walls of glass, shiny white floors and step-up wooden platforms that cocoon the main sleep area of even entry-level suites. Mountain rooms are the most compact in the house, integrated loft spaces where bathroom and bedroom are one in the same with cutout windows in just the right places to reveal Lion’s Head. Select luxury rooms offer private plunge pool with futuristic lounge furnishings and in-room sound systems that brings the party to your own pad complete with mini-bar and cocktail service from on-demand bartenders.
