Although the property is very attractive and stylish, the most exceptional part of our stay was the incredible staff and service. The genuinely friendly, highly personalized service and thoughtful offerings put most 5-star hotels to shame.

The staff is incredibly nice! Janet and the woman who works in the breakfast area in the morning were the sweetest and always asked us about our day. The rooms were very clean and the room with the plunge pool is beautiful and worth your money. I will be returning to Capetown soon and will be staying at this location again. 10/10 recommend!

These guys are stellar! Above and beyond. Highly recommend this hotel and the staff are super attentive to every detail and even out a hot water bottle in a cozy crochet sack under your sheets for a bit more warmth on those Cape Town seaside nights! Thanks PODS for a great stay:)
