The Retreat at Waterfall Valley
guest accommodation option in Paarl
- Updated
- Nov 2026
The Retreat at Waterfall Valley sits on Waterval Road beneath the Klein Drakenstein mountains, on an estate that also presses its own olive oil. The hotel was refurbished and rebranded from Cascade Country Manor; the rooms have had their televisions removed in favour of quiet, though Wi-Fi remains. A spa offers individual treatments, and there is a living room, library, conference room and courtyard, with a new indoor studio added in 2026.
Groups of four to 24 can book breakfast or lunch on the terrace, and the property's own site notes that it has hosted weddings and links to a weddings page. Guided walks to nearby olive and wine farms are arranged. Room numbers and rates are not published; the hotel asks guests to book direct through its online system.
