What’s so Special?
The Oyster Box Hotel is a real treat and one of the top luxury boutique hotels in South Africa.
A Little bit of History
The Oyster Box has historic roots dating back to 1863, when the original cottage called ‘The Oyster Lodge’ was built.
Made of Burmese Teak, corrugated iron and re-enforced concrete, the Oyster Box was originally used as navigational beacon. The Oyster Box Hotel as such opened in March 1954, on the site next to the lighthouse.
In 2006 the property came up for sale and Stanley and Bea Tollman purchased the property. Although very run down, it was their vision to restore and develop the legendary Oyster Box Hotel to its original glory.
Building was completed in September 2009 and a number of the original landmarks remain intact, from the grand, revolving door at the entrance, to the reception and foyer with its black and white terrazzo tiles; wrought-iron balustrade and original, inlaid hand-painted tiles and friezes.
