Originally built as a Police Convalescent over a hundred years ago, the property turned to self-catering and never looked back. The beauty of the Covid shift encouraged us to create a new kind of hotel — what was once a thriving restaurant has been tastefully renovated into spaces conducive to relaxation and creativity. Ideal for workshops, meetings and intimate gatherings, or simply to relax and do your own practice.

Owner Frans Hollenbach studied Business Science at UCT and has built his entrepreneurial journey from selling hammocks and African sandals on Greenmarket Square to starting backpackers and acquiring historic hotels. He has owned Boulders Beach Hotel for 26 years. He met Zaria when she came to waitress for him 23 years ago.

Zaria holds a BSc (Physiotherapy) degree, a Polarity Therapy Certificate, and many years of yoga practice and teaching experience (not to mention those waitressing days). Her passion is understanding what really makes us unwell and how we can improve our overall well-being. She is inspired by the works of Deepak Chopra, her yoga teacher Simon Ben Avi, Dr Gabor Maté, Dr Bruce Lipton, Caroline Myss, and many others.

Madelein will be your host and looks forward to welcoming you with true South Peninsula hospitality. Her experience and knowledge of the area will make you wish you stayed longer. She has a passion for health and wellness, with lots of heart.
