Great Hotel
Quieter part of camps bay which was welcome. Underground parking was good, easy walk to restaurants. Nice rooftop bar, staff were great. Room was very spacious, bed comfy and the fridge was well stocked with food. Nice fresh bakery items delivered each morning. It was my birthday the day we left so the night before they left some treats and put a lot of effort in decorating the bed! Great hotel with a Miami Beach vibe.

It’s nice but not a 5 star
Great location and nice rooms. The balcony unfortunately loooked straight onto the street no privacy. The pool bar was nice but the infinity pool is only about 4 ft deep and not nice water, the other pool was refreshing but not very clean, overall it’s a nice hotel but nothing special.

Overall not a bad property. We stayed at two other properties in Camps Bay and this one was our least favorite. Location is great as it is right next to the beach, great view for sunset, and staff was great. Our room overall was good however it had an unpleasant smell, and when we ran the AC there was black dust that went all over the bed. To be fair we never notified the front desk, as we were only here one night - I am sure they would have fixed the issue. If you are looking for a place with a great location and walking distance to many restaurants this is a great place however the hotel could step it up in cleanliness.

Hotel is right on the beach and we had a beautiful view w a balcony. The refrigerator was well stocked with breakfast supplies and fresh baked goods would be hanging on our door every morning. The staff was also very friendly and helpful. The property is located near some great restaurants - we tried Primi (casual) one night and Codfather another/ both were fantastic and close to the hotel. We recommend reservations at Codfather since it was busy w locals which is how we knew right away it would be phenomenal. Also the hotel is close to Table Mountain, another must do.

Extremely excellent staff, I cant say enough about the staff. Everyone was so friendly and helpful from the moment we drove up to the garage. Beautiful resort with a great view. We got upgraded to a bigger room with a private pool which felt and looked like a dream house, but I’m sure other rooms are just as nice. Fridge is stocked daily with food/drinks. Good location, a short walk to everything…beach, market, restaurants, etc. The area and property felt very safe. Plenty of parking in secured garage.

A great base for your Cape Town adventure
We were impressed with South Beach and, being fractionally away from the noise and occasional seaweedy whiff of the main strip, meant that it was perfectly located in Camps Bay (still the best place to stay if you haven't been to Cape Town before). It's also conveniently located for the tidal pool where you can swim in warmer water than the sea. And all of Camp Bay's bars, cafes and restaurants are still only a few minutes walk away. Staff were always friendly and helpful as well as politely vigilant about mask-wearing (which was good!). We loved having the mini kitchen in the room too.
