Excellent B&B!

Excellent location very close to the city as well as main attractions like Table Mountain and Kirstenbosch. Our host was extremely gracious and went out of his way to let us in after hours late at night after our flight was delayed and to answer our questions. The on site parking is very handy for our rental car and the complimentary breakfast is delicious. Would highly recommend this spot for 1-3 travelers looking to see the area!

Cape Town is a gem!

I am a single female traveler. I loved this bnb. Elias was helpful and attentive, my room was beautiful. I used Uber to travel around capetown and I had no problems with safety or scammers. Cape town is my favorite leg of my journey.

Hotel stay

We stayed here for 10 days and enjoyed our stay here. The rooms were clean and well decorated and we had use of a communal fridge and microwave. The environment was very relaxed and was good to chat to people. Breakfasts were excellent with a wide choice, served with a smile. It was good to be able to use the pool. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. We would recommend Villa Garda as a place to stay, it was in a good location from both the airport and the V and A Waterfront. The downside was a lack of good eating places within a short walking distance, though good for fast food, but was fine if you had a car. Overall we had a very enjoyable stay here.

For us, the wifi wasn’t the greatest. In the morning it was too noisy. The location was good and the pool was great too.
