We were told this was a 4 star BandB our experience was nothing close to 4 star. We were put into a room next to the noisy kitchen, no hot water and no curtaines. When we complained and said we wanted to leave we weren't given our money back! This place left such a bad taste in my mouth and... More

The above review is very unfortunate. The reservation was made by Angelika for her parents whom upon arrival requested to be moved into an upstairs room. We unfortunately did not have one available and could not move them right away. We offered to move them as soon as a room became available however they were not happy with this. After... More

The accommodation was satisfying, clean. The homely welcome and breakfast made it a very special stay. We stayed for 5 nights and found that Villa sunshine was centrally situated to all attractions and the beach was 5 min. walk away. The area is quiet although there is no parking and we had to park our rented car in the street.... More

Very tranquil setting. Excellent base from where you can explore in any direction. Friendly staff. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Walking distance from the sea and main road with loads of dining options. Was disappointed that only SABC & ETV was available in the rooms. Also take into account that in virtually the entire Bantry Bay you have to park... More

We spent a week in the Planet Africa Apartments which are part of the Villa Sunshine Letting concept and we loved it. Apartments were cleaned daily, with clean sheets every 3 days and clean towels every 2 days. Pool area was good with the opportunity to braai or to use the gym. 33 apartments are using the pool, but even... More

We spent 5 nights in Cape Town and surrounding towns and this was the worst of them all. Sadly, while the room looked "clean", it was not! The pillows smelt of body odor...that was a starter. The bedsheets did not feel clean. There as no bath gel or shampoo...it was just not a good experience. I guess cheap comes at... More

That this was my second stay at Villa Sunshine speaks volumes. For our first stay we had our girls and were in their self-catering apartments.This time we opted for the B&B as it was only my wife and I. As was the case the last time and given our landing time, we were conveniently picked up at the airport. On... More

We made a booking using AsiaRooms.com and were mislead regarding the price per night as well as services provided. Lady at AsiaRooms quoted us 450-00 rands per night initially and the second I agreed to go ahead with the booking she changed the price from 450-00 to 550-00. Now I did not have time to look further as I was... More

The staff and Manager in particular -Ulandi, was very accommodating, friendly and professional. Great base to explore all that Cape Town has to offer, near the beach and loads of shops and restaurants nearby. Pool area was very relaxing too. Highly... More

Airport pickup did not turn up - when we finally arrived at hotel (at additional taxi expense) & brought to owners attention he responded with extreme brusqueness implying it was our fault.The room was tired and barely cleaned. Staff ( including owner & spouse) rude and unhelpful. Whatever organisation monitors tourist accomodation in Cape Town should investigate this establishment. Its... More
