Hotels at the V&A Waterfront offer a unique experience inside a neighbourhood that has been alive for over 160 years.
From intimate boutique properties to five-star resorts, every hotel here sits within a working harbour, a creative economy, and a community where there’s always a reason to stay a little longer.

Living at the V&A Waterfront means living inside one of the most connected neighbourhoods in Africa, with everything that comes with it: security, convenience and a view that never gets old.
At the V&A Waterfront, people come together to work, visit, create and belong. More than a destination, it's a neighbourhood of opportunity, supporting 30,000 direct jobs and contributing R45.9 billion to the economy.
A new stretch of Cape Town’s Atlantic coastline is being opened up to the city. Over the next 15 to 20 years, this R20 billion-plus development will bring new homes, hotels, jobs, public space and a protected bay for swimming, kayaking and boating. A 540-metre seawall will help protect the coastline, while a new coastal walkway will connect the V&A directly to the Sea Point promenade.

The Breakwater offers 150 apartments on the Atlantic side of the V&A Waterfront, with views of Table Mountain and the ocean from many of its units. It's the ideal address for those who love a quiet sanctuary that’s still connected and feels like a community. The Oranjezicht City Farm Market, Victoria Wharf and Mouille Point promenade are all nearby, and the main routes in and out of Cape Town are easily accessible.




The Breakwater offers everything you need to feel at home, including 24-hour lobby security, a residents-only gym, an 18-metre rim-flow pool and free uncapped Wi-Fi.
Many of the 150 apartments look out over the Atlantic Ocean and Table Mountain.
