Booking Notes

 

Stay

Please note when booking flights that we try to avoid checkins/checkouts on Sundays and public holidays (e.g. Christmas Day, New Year’s Day).

In season (mid Nov – mid March) the Club’s focus is on providing accommodation for kitesurfers, windsurfers, surfers; other sportspeople; and +1s. Out of season we are happy to accommodate other guests.

The Club is not suitable for under 16’s unless a group book out the entire property together. If you wish to arrange something like this please enquire well in advance.

Self-catered

The Club is self-catering but coffee and tea are available throughout the day “on the house” and Hayden will put out his legendary muffins most days.

About once a week we have a “braai night” when we light the BBQ and sit down to eat together. Just give Hayden whatever you want cooking on the fire and while he BBQs we all make salads.

Water Wise

Please note that although the water drought is over, Cape Town has seasonal rain and is very dry over Summer, so we aim to be “water wise”. This means short showers, turning the tap off when brushing teeth and similar water-saving measures.

Covid-19

After two seasons (20-21 and 21-22) offering enhanced cancellation and refund options we are now “back to normal” with no special or additional right to cancel for COVID related reasons. We recommend you take out travel insurance to cover yourself against the need to cancel or defer your trip for COVID or other medical reasons.

Extras and Discounts

We charge a R330 supplement for arrivals or departures on a Sunday or a public holiday in South Africa.

We offer three types of discount: “early season long booking”, “long stay” and “pro rider/team rider/kite industry”.

However: Discounts only apply in Le Morne, Cabarete, Cauipe, Qoodmans and Squamish rooms.

We don’t discount Rhosneigr (our master/premium room) or the annex (our shared room, which is the best value room in Cape Town anyway).

We discount for in early/late season and mid season (but not peak).

Discount amounts:

Early season long stay: although November is probably the best month for kitesurfing in Cape Town guests are sometimes slow to arrive, so to encourage you … if you come for most of November and / or early December we will “do a deal”. Contact us with your dates and we will make you an offer you won’t want to refuse.

Long stay discount: Stay of 15-20 nights 10%; 21-29 nights: 15%; 30 nights or more: 20% (in each case of all nights other than peak season nights). Stays of up to 14 are not discounted, sorry.

Industry discount: Discounts available for team riders and similar – availability and amount varies so please enquire.

Payment

When: We usually ask for a 30% deposit on booking. The balance is due shortly after checkin.

How: By direct bank transfer in Euro, GBP, USD or CAD. Or by Revolut. Sorry but we do not take card payments or Paypal. When in South Africa we also accept payment in local currency (Rand) cash. There are ATMs near the house.

For transfers and cash payments if you don’t pay in ZAR (Rand) exchange rates are worked out on the day of payment using the rate on XE.COM.
