Tucked inside the iconic 12 Apostles mountain range between Camps Bay and Llandudno, this world-renowned boutique hotel overlooks the Atlantic Ocean and offers warm, personalised service.

Head concierge Masood Sadulla has been with the establishment for eight 
years and has made such a lasting impression on guests that he nabbed the title “Concierge of the Year” at the Red Carnation Hotel Collection Staff 
Appreciation Awards Gala held recently in London.

The news came hot on the heels of Sadulla making history when he became one of only 12 South Africans to receive the coveted Golden Keys accolade, inducting him as a member of the prestigious international hotel concierge association Les Clefs D’Or.
