Friendly and great hospitality. Comfortable, modern, clean and tidy accommodation. We had our own external doors so we could come and go without having to walk through the main house, but we were connected as wel with another door if we needed to. Our room came with a fridge freezer, kettle, coffee machine, sink and a microwave. Loved the swimming pool! Felt secure and safe. We had a car and the area was a perfect base and the driving distance to lots of different restaurants, and roads easily accessible to go to Cape Town Waterfront, Bloubergstrand, Cape Point or Winelands. It feels central to the whole area. Great accommodation and lovely hosts.

Loved the hospitality. The hosts are such lovely people. They always go the extra mile. I've been checking in weekly and this is a lovely home away from home. The room is comfortable and quite stylish. As a young lady, the neighborhood is very safe and the extra effort from Noellien and her husband make is quite reassuring that I am safe and so is my vehicle. I would definitely recommend this place, especially for young ladies traveling alone.

We arrived at night thanks to an unreliable airline which changed its schedule 2 times. That is always an unsettling experience when you are not familiar with a location. So we sent a localisation to the host so that they could track us. How pleasant it was to spot someone (Sam) at the last corner waiting for some hesitant guests. We were blown away by the house, we were expecting an ordinary set up... The room was extremely comfortable, the house had been renovated and decorated with great taste. We were in a small hotel, with even probably better facilities.

Everything! Great view on the bay, great west orientation of the rooms enabling to enjoy the sunset from your room and balcony, beautiful modern house with vast bedroom and bathroom, very comfortable bed, great staff offering a great level of service and caring about making your experience as good as possible. Outstanding discussions with Ani who really helped us understand better South Africa and Cape Town and spent a lot of time with us. Fantastic breakfast. Location very practical to cover the various areas of interest of Cape Town by car, whilst being in a very safe, quiet residential area. Camps Bay as such is great, with probably one of the nicest beaches around Cape Town.
