Khaya Kite and Yoga House

There is not a lot to say, except that you just have to go there and feel it yourself. This hostel made me feel so welcome from the first day on. Most of the people stay there for a long time, so it feels more like family. There are a lot of activities organizied by the hostel as well. Note that it is a really lively hostel and people tend to hang out in the garden late. But everyone is also super respectful and I never had problems in the 8 bed dorm. There is pool, sauna and a hot tub, which are all well maintained and evenings with Braai are always special as well. Getting so much love from a hostel is unique, and I can't wait to come back to this place.

I would like to give a quick shout out to the Khaya crew. Khaya House is not a hostel - it’s a place where you arrive, you feel like home and you never want to leave. Miri and Luke create an unmatched energy with their volunteers and all the people who stay there. Everybody is super caring, friendly, open and energetic. From inspiring work chats, to braai nights, pizza party’s with amazing music, hiking multiple times per week, kiting, yoga classes every day to movie nights - you won’t be able to miss anything.They even have a sauna. The only thing is… you just don’t want to leave. And then on top of that the best dog in the world… Khaya herself. 😊 Thank you for this incredible home away from home.

After my stay, I can highly recommend this hostel. The atmosphere is incredibly pleasant. The hosts are welcoming, knowing so many interesting insides , and create an environment that felt like a small family. They also offer many exciting group excursions that you can join. If I'm ever in Cape Town again, I will definitely stay there again.

I absolutely loved my stay at Khaya!! ❤️ Genuinely one of the top 5 hostels I’ve stayed in the world. Miri is so incredible and quite literally anything you want to do in Cape Town, she can give you advice about. Luke is also an absolute gem and icon and Beauty will truly make you feel at home! But most of all, Khaya the dog really made this hostel a 10/10 for me. 🥰 The dorms are nice and pretty spacious with a space under your bed for lots of storage. There’s many bathrooms across the house so you never have to queue for long (if at all). There is a large front yard and backyard if you’re looking to workout, do yoga, or just lounge in the sun. There’s also a POOL, SAUNA, and HOT TUB! If you’re a digital nomad, you will be cruising here. The wifi is pretty good and there’s a couple of places to co-work with others, and a smaller space if you’re looking to take a call. Whether you’re stopping by for a short while or longer, I’m sure you will enjoy this hostel!!

Fantastic hostel! The vibe was amazing. Super friendly, open, and welcoming. Easy to meet great people and feel at home. I loved the planned activities. Well-organized and made the whole experience even more memorable. I would definitely stay here again!
