Escape to the Beach, hotel in Wilderness

Featuring pool with a view and views of sea, Escape to the Beach is a recently renovated guest house located in Wilderness, 100 metres from Wilderness Beach.

This is the best Guest House that we have stayed at ever in SA. We have been coming to SA since 2017 and have stayed at some fantastic places. The staff were great and everything went smoothly and seamless. We holiday in SA twice a year now and will stay here now on every trip. Also the heated pool was almost like a hot tub!

We loved it here. It was just beautiful and we'd have loved more time to relax in the very inviting relaxation spaces. The meal was great, my partner is a vegetarian and he felt it was the best veggie meal he'd had on our trip.

    Very peaceful and quiet location. Amazing to be able to open up the bifold doors fully and appreciate the view. Comfortable beds, hot showers and a really helpful host. Really nice touch that coffee/tea etc provided. Priscilla was so helpful and went out of her way to make sure we could access activities when our SIM cards weren’t able to call SA numbers - we really thought she was a great host!
