Planning to swap the European winter for a Cape Town summer? ☀️

If you’re looking at travel between December and March, this is the time to start turning those plans into bookings.

At Crayfish Penthouse, summer means coffee overlooking the harbour, days exploring Cape Town from a central base, and the option to come home and spend the afternoon by the rooftop pool. Stay comfortably for longer, with the V&A Waterfront, restaurants, and much of the city nearby.

And while winter continues back home, your evenings can end on the rooftop with a cocktail overlooking Cape Town as the sun goes down.

Why visit Cape Town once when your route can bring you back?⁠
⁠
For international travellers exploring the Western Cape, Cape Town can be both the beginning and the end of your journey.⁠
⁠
Start with a few nights at Crayfish Penthouse. Recover from the flight, explore Cape Town and enjoy having your own apartment in the city before collecting the car and heading into the Winelands.⁠
⁠
From the Winelands, continue east and spend a few days exploring the Garden Route. Then, as you begin the journey back towards Cape Town, turn down towards the Whale Coast for a stay at Crayfish Lodge in De Kelders. Here, the city views are replaced by Walker Bay, coastal walks and, from June to November, the chance to spot southern right whales from shore.⁠
⁠
Finish where you started with a final night or two at Crayfish Penthouse. Return the rental car, enjoy one last Cape Town evening and wake up ready for the journey home.⁠
⁠
One journey, with Crayfish waiting at both ends of the coast.⁠

What if your plans for the day were simply… upstairs? ☀️

The rooftop at Crayfish Penthouse gives you plenty of reasons to stay put. Find a spot to sit with a book, cool off in the pool overlooking the city and harbour, or fire up the braai and enjoy lunch with Cape Town spread out below.

And when afternoon turns to evening, pour a cocktail and stay for the sunset.

Sometimes enjoying Cape Town means seeing more of it. Other days, it means finding a good spot above it.

What makes a work trip feel less like work?
📍 The CTICC across the road

Walk to your conference or meeting without planning your morning around Cape Town traffic.

💻 A proper place to work
The dining table gives you room to open the laptop, spread out your notes and get through what needs doing.

📶 Reliable WiFi
For calls, emails and everything that follows you back from the meeting.

🍽️ Food without another journey
YU and MRKT are downstairs at The Onyx, with plenty more within walking distance.

🏋️ A gym in the building
So fitting in a workout doesn't require leaving The Onyx.

And when the laptop closes, you still have a private apartment eleven floors above Cape Town to come home to.

If today was your first day in Cape Town, here’s exactly how we’d spend it. 👇⁠
⁠
Start with coffee at the Penthouse before catching an Uber to the V&A Waterfront. Head out onto the water for a boat cruise, then stay for lunch overlooking the harbour before spending the afternoon exploring Zeitz MOCAA.⁠
⁠
By evening, there’s no need to make another reservation. Head back to The Onyx Hotel , order dinner from YU downstairs, and enjoy it eleven floors above the city.⁠
⁠
One full day in Cape Town, without spending half of it getting from place to place.⁠

You start to notice it from eleven floors up☀️

The light stays a little longer over Cape Town, afternoons begin to feel warmer, and the balcony starts calling you outside again.

Winter is making way for spring, and from the Penthouse, you have a front-row seat to the change. A glass of champagne overlooking the Cape Town harbour, doors open to the city, and an extra hour of daylight to decide where the evening takes you.

A new season in Cape Town is almost here.

For South African itineraries beginning in Cape Town, we offer our guests two distinct stays connected by one coastline.

Start at Crayfish Penthouse, a private penthouse at The Onyx in central Cape Town. Here, our guests have easy access to the V&A Waterfront, Atlantic Seaboard, restaurants and galleries, while enjoying the space and privacy of their own apartment.

Continue to Crayfish Lodge, 2 hours away in De Kelders on the Whale Coast. Set above Walker Bay, our lodge offers ocean views and access to one of the world's best land-based whale-watching destinations during southern right whale season from June to November.

Together, our two properties create an easy city-to-coast itinerary for international travellers who want to experience more of the Western Cape without adding complicated logistics to their trip.

The best part of a long conference day might be the walk home.

From the CTICC, Crayfish Penthouse is just across the road. A few minutes after your last meeting, you can be back at The Onyx penthouse, laptop away, shoes off and heading upstairs to the rooftop.

Swim, stretch out beside the pool, or simply take some time above the city before deciding what to do with the evening.

Because a good location doesn't only make getting to work easier. It gets you back to your own time sooner.

By the third night, you're not really unpacking any more. You know which side of the lift to stand on. You've found your favourite coffee shop, you know your YU order, and you're starting to settle into your own little Cape Town routine.

The penthouse is starting to feel like home.

Two bedrooms, a full kitchen and a private rooftop. Built for stays of three nights or longer, in central Cape Town, within walking distance of the V&A Waterfront.

What does having Cape Town on your doorstep look like at the end of the day?

After exploring the city, come back eleven floors up, pour yourself a cocktail, step onto the deck and watch the harbour change as daylight disappears.

That's the freedom of staying at the Crayfish Penthouse. A private apartment in the heart of Cape Town, with the space to experience the city on your own terms and somewhere you'll genuinely enjoy coming home to.
