Dining options for conference groups
- Hotel Restaurant - For bigger groups. Large tables are set in the main restaurant and delegates have the option of an à la carte, buffet or set menu.
- Bar/Patio Area - This is a more informal dining area. The bistro has a beautiful seawater aquarium and leads onto a large patio, which overlooks the
- Hotel Cellar - This private venue with its relaxed atmosphere offers a great opportunity for team building. It is transformed for the perfect dining experience when a long table is set and plenty of candles are lit. Menu choices are the same as above. Maximum of 30 people.
- Fish Braai (weather permitting) - Enjoy a relaxed evening around the hotel pool in the courtyard. Guests are encouraged to choose their own fish directly from the community’s small commercial fishing fleet when they return from the day’s fishing. The fish is then prepared in the hotel’s kitchen, and served with a variety of other seafood and meat dishes.
- Kassiesbaai (private dining venue) - This is a community project in historical Kassiesbaai, a living monument village where guests are looked after by the “retired ladies” of the village. A mere 800 m from the hotel you will be hosted in a typical limestone home with thatched roof and a wood-burning stove. The food is local fare, especially fresh fish.
