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.

We had a wonderful stay at Central Villas in Camps Bay! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Blessing, the property manager, who truly made our experience exceptional. He was incredibly kind, helpful, and went out of his way to accommodate all of our requests, always with a smile and a can do attitude. The villa itself was beautiful and well-located, but it was Blessing’s attentiveness and hospitality that really stood out and made us feel at home. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for comfort, convenience, and excellent service in Camps Bay.

  • Bayflowers Guest House

    Guest House in Three Anchor Bay, Cape Town
    Avg. price/night: US$178.31
    Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.4
    Superb - What previous guests thought, 370 reviews
    Fantastic guest house in a great location which is ideal for exploring the Cape. The hosts Michael and Jeanne are terrific and are extremely helpful with great local guidance. Breakfast was a real treat - most of the food is either local or home made (bread and yoghurt). Jeanne also bakes a 'treat of he day' which is always delicious. Our room (202) was excellent - large bedroom with a terrace facing the sea. The property is in a cul-de-sac and so it is very quiet. Highly Recommended

  • Tintagel Guest House

    Guest House in Gardens, Cape Town
    Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.4
    Superb - What previous guests thought, 593 reviews
    Loved our stay at the Tintagel Guest house. Big comfortable bedrooms, immaculately clean. Wonderful hosts, friendly and helpful, they happily arranged dinner reservations for us. Lovely breakfast, outside in the courtyard on good days, inside when it became windy. Secure off road parking. Great location, close to Kloof Street, Long Street and an easy drive or inexpensive taxi to all the main city centre attractions and the Table Mountain Cable Car station.

  • Cheviot Place Guest House

    Guest House in Green Point, Cape Town
    Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.7
    Exceptional - What previous guests thought, 275 reviews
    Cheviot Place is a great place in a very quiet neighborhood. The house is very charming and you can walk to places like the Waterfront or Green Point Park. There are a large number of restaurants within a 10 minute walk. On the other hand, James is a great host and has given us many good tips for restaurants, excursions, etc. In summary, Cheviot Place is a highly recommended place to spend a few quiet days in Cape Town in a family atmosphere that makes you feel at home.

    I stayed at 10 different guest houses during my trip in South Africa and Maartens Guesthouse is definitely my favourite! His warm personality, wicked sense of humour and attention to detail really makes us feel at home. He’s not only a great host but also a very kind friend. Thank you for having us!

    Great location in a quiet area, ideal for the airport, city and other destinations. Very relaxed, non-pretentious guest house. Excellent cooked breakfast, the 'kitchen sink' omelette is specially recommended. Kevin and Hermann were very welcoming and great hosts.
