Overview
3About Retreat
Retreat lies in Cape Town's southern suburbs, just off the M5 near Steenberg and Lansdowne, with Muizenberg and False Bay a quick 6 km hop away. It's handy for day trips into Claremont, Rondebosch, or down to Fish Hoek and Noordhoek, while the N1 and N2 connect you to Citrusdal or Knysna for longer runs. Cape Town CBD is 22 km up the M3, and CPT Airport is about 30 km off. Over 20 fast chargers dot the area, handy for EV drivers doing the peninsula loop. The Zandvlei wetland right on its doorstep gives Retreat its own quiet, tucked-away feel.
