Sonskyn is a 5th generation beachfront home (Dated back to 1895). Our great grandmother Christina Maria Loubser/van Niekerk chose this unique spot to create a comfort holiday, entertain family & friends and to revitalize her health in this life - giving air.

We as a family (Christina, Michael and Marietjie) see it as our privilege to carry on with this tradition to offer you hearty, old fashioned, personalized hospitality at all times.

At Sonskyn ("Sunshine") you will hear the sound of white foaming waves breaking on the rocks infront of the house, to roll out onto the unique pepple beach.

Start Your day with a cup of our bottomless filter coffee. Let us spoil you with a full English Breakfast in our seafront lounge. Enjoy the unspoilt views over the Atlantic Ocean to Table Mountain & Robben Island (where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned).

Take a beachfront stroll (also wheelchair friendly) through the old village - passing three well known restaurants - one of which is "Ons Huisie", a traditionally built West Coast fisherman's cottage (1816), now a national monument.

Participate in kitesurfing, windsurfing or swimming at the internasionally reknown BIG BAY beach, or just relax on our sunstoep on the beach. For the golfers, there's a choice of two well known golf courses - Atlantic or Milnerton golf clubs, within 5 minutes range. Take a 20 minute-drive to Cape Town, V&A Waterfront or other shopping centres like Canal Walk or Tagervalley.

Experience our spectacular sunsets while enjoying our complimentory sherry from Sonskyn in our seafront lounge! Now you will find time to observe the seagulls and Tobies, second rarest bird in South Africa with extinstion!
