Had a good stay. I enjoyed the terrace and the view the most. The apartment has everything you need but the furniture were slightly run down- -specially for the price you pay. You have to enter the apartment through the underground parking garage which is a bid odd and can be spooky at night. Overall the location was great and you are able to walk to the beach(20 min) if you want to. Staff was friendly and helpful. You can not beat the view!

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.

Hardly have words to describe how beautiful it is at The Crystal Apartments. It's even nicer in real life compared to the pictures. We got a room on the first floor, and it was so beautiful waking up and walking straight out on our private terrace, having a view of Lions Head mountain. Camps Bay is also the best place to watch sunsets. Our apartment was HUGE, with a beautiful and social kitchen and a lovely bathroom with a bathtub. Also very nice staff, and it felt supersafe to stay here:) No doubt where I'm gonna stay next time I'm in Cape Town!

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

hervorragende Unterkunft! Sehr schöner Pool mit genügend Liegen. Das Auto konnten wir kostenlos und sicher in der Tiefgarage parken. Hervorragende, moderne Ausstattung mit viel Platz. Die Unterkunft bietet Bügeleisen, Waschmaschine, Spülmaschine und Wasserkocher. Die Wohnung wird täglich gereinigt, sogar das Geschirr wird gespült und die Spülmaschine ausgeräumt. Schöner Balkon mit Blick auf den Strand. Einziger negativer Punkt: Entgegen der Hotelbeschreibung gab es kein Wifi. Wir mussten uns auf eigene Kosten eine SIM-Karte kaufen. Eine Erstattung wurde uns nicht angeboten.
