My friend and I had planned our trip to South Africa in November of 2011 to travel in May of 2012. One week before we were to arrive in Cape Town our hotel in Bantry Bay sent an e-mail that the court had ordered them to cease operation - in a panic I looked on Tripadvisor for reviews and contacted...

We stayed here for 5 days in February 2009. Our 'room' was awsome - more like a luxurious suite - so much more than we expected and filled with beautiful lilies and roses. The view from our patio across the bay was wonderful and we enjoyed many peaceful hours enjoying the view and space. The staff were very helpful and... More

We stayed here on our first trip to Cape Town earlier this month. It's a teeny tiny hotel with excellent personal service. All the staff went beyond the call to make our experience excellent. Views over the ocean are breathtaking. Rooms are spacious and designed to be stylish and also very comfortable. Breakfast buffet is scrumptious. Location is good -... More

The bathroom is equipped with rainshower, minibar is fully stocked and the rooms are nice and spacious. Various pillows to... More
