There’s not much more that needs to be said, is there? No, is the answer. It’s pretty much all you needed to hear. Do you even need me to push you over the edge by mentioning the four-course gourmet gastronomic journey, prepared by renowned Chef Jonathan Gargan? Probably not. Seriously, get a grip – it’s […]
While our Facebook photos from the event can give you an idea of the awesomeness of the vibe that day, it can never do it justice. That is why I invented the ‘moving picture’ and, subsequently, this video. Jump in and re-live that day with us. Feel the vibe throughout your body, not just through […]
Well, ladies and gentlemen. That’s what we call a “success”. Weather-wise, Cape Town served up a typically stunning Friday evening. The sky was azure, the rays were mild, and oh hey, look at that – a rooftop covered in beautiful people, ice cold beverages, and international music superstars. Click through for the pictures.
Imagine that? Well it’s a very real thing, my friends.

Yawn.. It’s not altogether surprising that the Cape Royale hotel has nailed another World Luxury Hotel award – they are, after all, a 2oceansvibe Partner and winning awards for excellence is pretty much standard around here. And I’m not talking about the standards the hotel has set when it comes to “boutique fully-serviced hotel’ living, […]
All protocol was relaxed as we granted one photographer and virtual-tour expert (Panascape) unprecedented access to my suite at the Cape Royale hotel. As it is my primary residence, you can imagine what intimate never-seen-before details were caught on camera. The virtual tour itself let’s you cruise around the Cape Royale hotel (spinning 360 degrees […]

Look, I’m certainly not distraught at being “stuck” in Provence for the next month, but I am somewhat “irked” that I am missing out on the winter specials going on at my primary residence, the Cape Royale hotel! In particular, at1800 Restaurant and Equinox spa! So I thought I better pop them up here for […]
Is this REALLY news? I would be celebrating and popping the champagne, if the news came as a surprise. But it doesn’t. I mean, is it wrong to expect these kind of accolades from 2oceansvibe brands and sponsors? Are we not perhaps numbed by the success of the associated brands and advertisers and people on […]

Courtesy of Olmeca Tequila, Pussy Natural Energy Drink, Cape Royale Hotel and 2oceansvibe. What’s more, the only beer being served was Jack Black beer and the only wine was De Grendel Rose. Just because. All the professional behind-the-scenes pics are right here. The boys…the boys! You’ve seen that face somewhere before? The venue – shame.. […]
Mother dearest is in Cape Town at the mo and, as you can imagine, required high levels of attention at all times prior to my Los Angeles departure – including daily shopping expeditions, lunches and dinners. Between finding time to write for you and my waistline, I needed to find some time without offending her. […]

Paul from 1800 restaurant downstairs at the Cape Royale (click that if you haven’t seen this place yet) made a call to my room on Sunday night – “Thanks for the Butlers Pizza” he said, “the staff are all feeling the vibe.” Aah, good, the 10 larges had obviously arrived! Wonderful. They’ve got a lovely […]

With much confusion surrounding the names Kloof Street, Kloof Road and Kloof Nek Road, the lower portion of Kloof Street couldn’t be a better candidate for a new neighbourhood name. Forming part of the expansive Gardens suburb, this flurrying node of Cape Town’s city includes such popular haunts as the Mount Nelson Hotel, vida e, […]
This is a neighbourhood desperate for a name. It’s that part of Green Point which hosts a number of institutions. From vide e, Manos, and the Cape Royale hotel to Mario’s, Giovanni’s, Jade and Hudson’s Burger Joint – this is the stomping ground of many a Capetonian and tourist alike. “Green Point” is massive! It […]
What an important neighbourhood this is! The area that was catapulted into the global spotlight as the heart and soul of Cape Town’s celebrated fanwalk during the 2010 FIFA World Cup needs a name. As a sub-section of the greater Green Point suburb, this neighbourhood is jam packed with famous names. From the KFM studios […]
Any foodie worth his/her salt will be well aware of the multi-award winning “Best Country Kitchen” in South Africa, Mariana’s – the jewel in Stanford’s crown. Stanford, for the less-informed, is 15 minutes after Hermanus. On the river. My family are close friends with owners, Mariana and Peter. My dad gets special pies which aren’t […]
I had a dinner party last night at my penthouse at the Cape Royale Hotel, and I must just say that the star of the show (besides the Jack Daniel’s, Corona beer, Boschendal bubbly and La Fee absinthe) was “The World In Vogue” coffee table book I bought for La Muse a while ago. It’s […]
Facebook Bans Nirvana Cover, Then Says Nevermind – Facebook can’t seem to decide how it feels about nudity on the cover of Nirvana’s Nevermind. The social networking site reportedly removed – and later replaced – the artwork in its page for the 1991 album, initially finding the cover photograph violated the site’s terms of use. […]
