I really don't think that words could depict how beautiful this hotel is. Spacious, luxurious and refined. Service and whole experience is subtle and relaxing - had to remind myself that I wasn't staying in a private villa. Would go back to Cape Town in a heartbeat and stay in Sea five, amazing.

We stayed for a week at Sea Five in March 2012. Marco, Rose and the team do everything they possible can to make your stay an oustanding experience. The position of the property is great in that you can walk to so many fabolous restaurants. We will be back! Paul and Katriona

The Seafive is the ultimate expression of subtle and private luxury. With sweeping views over Camps Bay, this boutique Hotel is a heavenly and elegant retreat!! Marco, the general manager, has unparalleled taste and savoir-faire, which make the stay at Sea Five a unique experience. The staff are professional, attentive and very friendly. Overall, this is "the place" to book... More

We started our holiday in Cape Town with 4 nights at the Sea Five. Up on our early morning arrival, Rose met us with a lovely smile and a coffee..... just what we needed! Our room was fresh with a New England, yet modern feel.... with all the mod cons. Breakfast was amazing. Fresh, homemade and of high quality. Marco... More

We stayed three nights at the end of our holiday after stays in a number of outstanding boutique hotels and guest houses in Southern Africa. Sea Five stands comparison in terms of the overall modern design of the building and the size and convenience of the rooms. It is located on a steep slope on the hill above Camps Bay... More

Boutique is the right word for this hotel - its chic interior just oozes style and luxury. Located 2 streets back from the seafront at buzzing Camps Bay, it's an ideal base to explore the Cape area. Marco, Rose and the team make you feel at home from the moment you step through the door and look after you as... More

As part of a three week family holiday, my partner and I stayed here for three nights with my parents. I am not sure what could be done to improve this place - they try so hard and everything ends up perfect. We were met by Rose extremely early in the morning after our flight to Cape Town landed at...

We recently spent 4 nights in the Ocean Suite at Sea Five and had a very enjoyable and relaxing time which was just what we needed after 2 weeks travelling around South Africa. Once we found the hotel, which was a little tricky as there is no signage outside, we were met by Elvis and then introduced to the hotel... More

My wife and I spent five nights at Sea Five and enjoyed all our time there. The staff there are so hospitable that they really don't come across as employees. They are more like friends who want you to have the best time possible. The location is great - just up a hill from Camps Bay beach, this affords you... More

When we arrived in our room and looked at the view it took our breath away. A stunning place with a stunning view and stunning service. Rose, Marco and John made our stay a real treat - we couldn't have ended our honeymoon in South Africa any better. A really relaxed feelbut with nothing being too much trouble - candles... More
