Future Found Sanctuary in Hout Bay by Newmark

Amazing destination hotel. Staff were excellent and facilities too. Stunning scenery. Can't wait to go back. Absolutely loved it!!!!! Its a total gem. We had a brilliant time. A relaxing sanctuary. Would definitely recommend to friends and family..

Our last stop of our 3.5 week tour of the Western Cape was 2 nights in a room in the Villa Verte section of the hotel. It actually has 3 separate parts with the recent introduction of the 2 pod rooms in the forest (of which will try next time). Huge room in Villa Verte with a good sized balcony overlooking the forest below. Plenty of facilities on hand in the room with a great sized bathroom to boot. But this place is not about the room its about the whole experience and how it makes you feel that your watch is going bcakwards! Pool at the Villa Verte and pool at Maison Noir take you pick! Breakfast at either location if you want. Cup of coffee? just ask one of the butlers who will happily provide (Thanks Keith) Staying in for dinner than just let them know and they will offer you a menu choice and we did that at the communal table in Maison Noir. Glass of bubbly? Keith or Prosper will oblige. Great gym and the first one I have ever used on holiday. Steam room? Of course you can. Massage? Yep got that as well. How about a movie? Well you can book the cinema room and order fresh popcorn with your glass of fizz. What a place ! Big shout out to Andrew the manager for his friendly engaging chat and all the tips he gave us for our next trip (we are definitley doing the Karoo mate). 2 nights felt like a week and we dined out at La Colombe on the 2nd night. Definitley a haven to return to in 2026!

This hotel is truly exceptional. The rooms, the grounds, the staff and the food are all amazing and we had the most wonderful stay. We left feeling so relaxed, and it is one of the few hotels I’ve stayed at that I have been sad to leave. We travelled around Cape Town and Franschhoek and stayed in various locations, and this was a perfect way the end our trip. We are already looking to book for next year. I highly recommend booking half board because the chefs are so talented and the food is delicious. We stayed here with the expectation that we would probably still eat out every night, but after the first meal we had, it was clear we would be eating at the hotel every night. Referring to Future found as a hotel feels wrong, as it really is a sanctuary as they call it in the name. It is boutique, luxury and personal. Thank you so much to the whole team there who made our stay so special.

I can barely begin to describe how wonderful this place is - and selfishly part of me is hesitant to write a review because I want to keep it a secret and be able to always go back! Put it this way - my husband and I could quite literally feel our blood pressure drop upon stepping foot into Future Found. We were able to completely relax during our stay - started every day off with a cold plunge in the natural pool, followed by amazing breakfast with fresh fruits and vegetables grown on the property, followed by treatments in the spa that blew our mind, workouts in the gym, hikes on the property, pool time, naps, and wonderful dinner with new friends. It sounds hyperbolic, but this place is perfection. We could not have asked for more in an experience or a stay. Prince, our property butler/concierge, went above and beyond for us, as did the entire staff. Thank you to the founders, the staff, and everyone who makes this place the incredibly special and unique place that it is (I also very much appreciated that there was not any plastic on site!!).

What an incredible place and stay! We stayed here for two nights on our honeymoon, and we were blown away. Really one of the most beautiful and tranquil places we've ever stayed. It feels like staying in the most gorgeously designed mansion, and the staff were wonderful and personal. We were lucky to get upgraded to an even more amazing room than we booked, and it was such a treat. We had a lovely dinner on the property, and we also had amazing massages in the spa - highly recommend

Exceptional reception and friendly staff. I was given a warm welcome and didn't wait long to receive my accommodation and upon arriving at my stay, I was welcomed with good clean facilities. Thank you for the amazing experience. I would definitely recommend this stay to my friends, family and colleagues.
