Good location, comfortable apartment and helpful staff. It was strange and unhelpful that there were no instructions as to how to work the oven - it took staff time to work it out themselves.

Very impressive

Easy to find from the airport. Staff really helpful. Apartment was on ground floor near pool, so great access to pool area. The room was very clean and had everything needed for a few days near camps bay. Room was cleaned daily with fresh towels so all in all very impressive - and great secure parking.

Location, view and actual apartment was good - poor communication on booking (booked an airport transfer and no one turned up) - facilities also poor within complex - lift wasn’t working for the week we were there and had to carry luggage up and down 3 floors - and air conditioner didn’t work in bedroom - reported it to reception and they said they would fix, however, at no time during the week did anyone look at it

The apartment was spacious and had a fridge ,freezer ,washing machine etc which was great . Lovely views . Attention to detail lacking however . Having to ask for a plug to have a bath is not acceptable . A broken fan isn’t either . A shame as it would put me off returning.
