Staff (esp Sam, Venessa and Vim) was excellent in this boutique hotel. Was very personable and always with a smile. We stayed for a week so we got to know them. We got the biggest room they had and it was worth it. It was too cold for the pool, but it looked nice. The upstairs terrace was the perfect place to watch the sunset with Table Mountain in the background as well. Also loved the free breakfast. Not only did they have a small spread with baked goods, fruits, yogurt, n breads, you order from their breakfast menu! We tasted most of it and we liked all of what we tasted. Def have the pancakes. They have a prof coffee machine so you can order however you like your coffee. Also we had one dinner there and the seafood platter for two was yums. It’s like <30min away from V&A wharf but it’s worth it. Def rent a car though. I stay here again and would recommend this hotel! Oh the beach! Just a short walk to the beach which was really nice with all the flora blooming. Twas nice and relaxing just to go there in the morning walking all that breakfast I just ate. Thanks to all the staff again!
