    The air con units should be on the other side of the building and not on the balcony. It was very noisy when people in the neighbouring had the air con on so couldn't keep the balcony doors open.

    Short 10 minute walk up and downhill to the main street in Camps Bay. Very safe area. Beautiful view of the sea.

    I recently rented this place and had an incredible experience! The staff went above and beyond to ensure our comfort, offering assistance with anything we needed. Moreover, the owner displayed remarkable generosity and understanding when we encountered a situation. Their kindness truly made our stay memorable and enjoyable. Highly recommend this place to anyone seeking not just accommodation, but genuine hospitality!

    Sometimes it was hard to communicate with the guesthouse but that was mostly because of booking.com and not the guesthouse. The ladies on site at the guesthouse during the day were always so helpful and kind.

    Gorgeous room! Comfy bed and lovely shower. Location was perfect to walk down to the Main Street of Camps Bay but also nice and quiet and safe feeling. There was also a market right on the corner in sight of the guesthouse for if we wanted snacks etc. AC also worked very well for our weak northeastern US bodies.

    Needs some TLC. It felt more like a boutique hostel with shared facilities - All perfectly acceptable but I found little to justify the price tag and left feeling somewhat cheated after finding a better apt for a 1/3 less.

    Pleasant stay, clean, comfortable and very welcoming staff. Kitchen useful and well equipped if a little grungy. Pool larger than many in these smaller properties. Nothing much in the area but 15 min walk downhill to Camp Bay.

    The hotel is a dated and needs some attention - a few cracks and infiltration signs. Nothing major. No breakfast, which was not a major issue because there is a delicious cafe close by.

    Large room with a gorgeous view. Excellent location in Camps Bay. Comfy beds and friendly staff.

    The position was not ideal for us as 2 of our party have mobility problems. However, we got round this with UBER.

    The staff were very helpful and welcoming. Particularly helpful with regards to a couple of special requests we had. The downstairs room was easily accessible for my husband, with only a couple of steps for access and a large walk in shower.

    Sunbeds need better cushions very uncomfortable and shade needed would have used the pool area more if provided

    Very relaxing the young ladies who looked after us were exceptional nothing was too much trouble. Quite an uphill walk from restaurants and bars but citibus passes helped and Uber a couple of pound back if late returning last bus just after eight .

    Everything was good but common kitchen and the swimming pool could have been cleaner. The kitchen looks a little bit smudgy.

    It’s nice accommodation and it is situated 10-15 minutes by walk from Camps Bay beach, and 2 minute walk from product supermarket. The room is very spacious with exciting view on the mountains and house terrace also has a nice view on the Ocean. Good for 3-4 days staying.

    Most beautiful place, very quiet, great view friendly people, was so easy to book only paid at the facility..I took my wife for our 11th anniversary there as we were already on holiday with our kids..walking distance to a shop restaurant and beach..9/10 overall
