Cozy Camps Bay House with mountain and sea view

View

Unit was clean and comfortable with off road parking provided. Staff were friendly and helpful

Advertised as having gym facilities, gym is very old and likely more of a safety issue. The pool was clean and available but couldnt be used due to workmen being present in the area during our stay. The main aircon unit was not working. The upstairs toilet developed a leak in the early hours of the morning. It was repaired the same day, however looking at the flooring this doesnt appear to be a once off incident. The living area and bedrooms were clean and comfy but the kitchen and bathrooms need a revamp.

The view

The view was great.

AVOID! The property listed is completely misleading as the pool, gym and lower area are all communal. The host is extremely rude and uses the constant excuse of “if you wanted all of it then go somewhere else to pay more”. It’s her common response listed in all the reviews outlining that the pool, gym, etc are not private but communal. At this point it is a very tired excuse and this property should be taken off Booking.com. Her messages to me were extremely rude and not what you expect from any person, let alone someone in the hospitality industry. Also the garage and driveway are not included, which was listed as private parking (not the street parking you actually get). This is your typical Camps Bay mansion that has been converted into 3 properties to rent. This would have been fine if it was clearly listed in the accommodation listing. I would never stay here again and highly recommend that no one else does either.

Amazing location, nice view, large apartment, host was great

The apartment/chalet is beautiful, spacious and comfortable and we had a great time. Also the challet needs some maintenance work, which to be clear, it didn't bother us at all. It has a great vibe, a bit 70s cape town! However, the description is misleading. We were under the impression that we booked an entire property but in reality within the property there is another house and some rooms that others rent. The host should update the description and clearly state that the pool, gym, entrance and outdoor area are shared. Did not make a difference at the end because we had a great time, even extended our stay.

The balcony with view is nice but mainly you see the front houses. If you arrive as a woman then a woman show you accomodation, if you are a male then the owner, which we noticed first time in all experiences. The beds where very comfy and nice! And the area is very quiet.

The pool is public, not as its said its private pool. The air condition was turned off probably to save money during season, instead there was a fan which makes noise as a boeing. The showers are tiny and old, not comfortable at all. There was no welcome simple thing as a bottle of water even. No water, no tea or coffee or even a bin bag, we needed one and when we searched the only one plastick bag bin was only exactly on the bin. The night light on balcony are so bright that you cant even look on them from main sala. Most of furniture looked very old, specifically the stove. The price is exactly how the house looks like
