We had a wonderful stay at 12 Apostles Hotel & Spa and would not hesitate to return or recommend it to others visiting Cape Town. The location is spectacular, with breathtaking ocean views that make every moment at the property feel special. Upon arrival, Justin, the manager, went above and beyond to ensure we had a comfortable stay. Due to some nearby construction activity, he proactively upgraded us to a room in a quieter section of the hotel, which we greatly appreciated. We were celebrating my husband's birthday, and the hotel made it truly memorable with champagne, a delicious cake, and macarons waiting for us in the room. It was a thoughtful touch that made us feel genuinely valued as guests. The heated pool was a highlight for our family, especially the kids, who absolutely loved spending time there. The food and drinks throughout our stay were exceptional. We thoroughly enjoyed dining at The Grill, Azure, and Leopard Bar, where both the quality of the food and the service were outstanding. The complimentary shuttle service to the V&A Waterfront was incredibly convenient and made exploring Cape Town effortless. Most importantly, every staff member we encountered was warm, hospitable, and greeted us with a smile. The level of service and genuine friendliness throughout the hotel made a lasting impression. A beautiful property, excellent dining, thoughtful service, and unforgettable views—12 Apostles Hotel & Spa exceeded our expectations, and we look forward to returning.

Visiting the Azure Restaurant at the 12 Apostles Hotel in Camps Bay is a bucket list item. We opted to go there during "restaurant week" to reduce the impact that the visit would have on the pocket, and very quickly realised what a wise choice we made. The two course lunch we opted for cost R295 pp and included either a starter and main or a main and dessert with an optional wine pairing for R155. Be aware that if you opt for water for the table, this comes at and additional cost. Also note that a discretionary 12,5 percent tip is added to the bill. Meals are expensive for the average pocket, but, to be fair, it is pretty obvious that only the finest cuts and choicest ingredients are used to prepare the meals.The food is top notch; cooked to perfection and beautifully presented by well trained waiting staff. The dishes are also well chosen to cater for for varying dietary needs. Portions are adequate to satisfy, but not satiate to the point of feeling too full. The menu comprised: • Starters: Farmed salmon trout, West Coast snoek, and Saldanha Bay mussels. • Mains: Atlantic kingklip, Winelands pork, and Stellenbosch chicken. • Desserts: Hillcrest berry and caramel blondie, tropical tart, and rich affogato. ...with guests having to choose any two. The view from the balcony overlooks the ocean that's scattered with an array or massive smooth rounded rocks and I'm certain one could catch a glimpse of seals and dolphins and even whales on a good day. All in all, we had a delicious lunch and were grateful for the complimentary dessert offered to the " birthday girl" as we were there to celebrate an aoccasion. A dessert was offered to the table as well...which was a very pleasant touch. Would I done there again? Definitely, when I win the lotto :)

We recently celebrated my husbands birthday at 12 Apostles, and what an unforgettable experience it was from start to finish. The entire experience was exceptional — the service was warm, attentive, and genuinely world-class, the food was absolutely divine, and the massage experience in the Mountain Boma was pure heaven. What stood out most to us was how thoughtfully we were treated as South African residents. So often, local residents pay significant resident rates at premium tourist destinations, yet the experience can sometimes feel secondary — whether through less desirable room allocations or subtle differences in treatment compared to international guests. That was absolutely not the case here. The team at 12 Apostles made us feel incredibly valued and welcomed from the moment we arrived. Our suite was private with breathtaking sea views, which made the birthday celebration feel even more magical. The movie night snacks and milkshakes were such a fun and indulgent touch as was the birthday cake and many thoughtful treats we received throughout our stay. Every detail felt considered, every interaction felt genuine, and the entire stay was memorable for all the right reasons. Thank you to the 12 Apostles team for making this birthday celebration so special — we’ll definitely be back.

My then-boyfriend had secretly planned the most beautiful surprise picnic for us, set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Twelve Apostles, near Stanley’s Rock. I arrived thinking we were simply going to enjoy a beautiful afternoon together. Little did I know, I was walking into one of the most important moments of our lives. And then there was Lindo. From the moment we arrived, Lindo brought such warmth, care and quiet magic to the experience. He was part of an incredibly special secret, helping my now-fiancé bring his vision to life so beautifully. Every detail and interaction felt thoughtful and genuine. Lindo, thank you for the kindness, excitement and extraordinary care you brought to our day. Thank you for helping turn my fiancé’s dream for our proposal into a reality and for playing such a special part in a moment that has now cemented a lifetime. Years from now, when we tell our children and grandchildren the story of how our forever began, we will remember the mountains, the ocean, that beautiful picnic, the overwhelming happiness of that “YES”… and we will remember Lindo. Five stars simply don’t feel like enough. Thank you, Lindo, and thank you to The Twelve Apostles Hotel for giving us a little piece of magic that we will carry with us for the rest of our lives.

This is my 3rd time to Cape Town, but my first time with the leopard bar at the 12 apostles Hotel. I came to watch the beautiful sunset. But I got so much more! My server Asanda recommended the most incredible wines for me, that I would not have tried on my own. The attention to detail and the thoughtfulness was exceptional! Thank you Asanda, I will be back and I will tell my friends!!

What an incredibly special experience with the Spa team at The Twelve Apostles. We made a last-minute booking for a massage for my friend’s mom for her birthday. It was also her first time in Cape Town, so we really wanted to make the day special for her. From our very first call to the moment we arrived to drop her off, the Spa team were simply amazing. The warmth, kindness and genuine care they showed us was something really special. Nothing felt like too much trouble, and they made her feel so welcomed, celebrated and completely looked after. She absolutely loved her experience, but what stayed with us most was how wonderful the people were. You can have a beautiful spa and beautiful surroundings, but it is the people who truly make an experience memorable and this team certainly did. A heartfelt thank you to the entire Spa team for the way you looked after her and for helping us make her birthday and first visit to Cape Town that much more special.
