"A stunning, warm, cosy, comfortable place to stay with lovely places to walk for coffee, and plenty of restaurants close"

10.0

My sister and I stayed at The Lily, we loved the location, stunning views, and proximity to the beach. We felt very safe. The caretaker Donald was extremely helpful and friendly!

There needs to be a toilet roll holder in the toilet and the toilet door didn’t close

"Very comfortable and pleasant stay. We will visit again. Real value for money."

9.0

Location and view were awesome. Bedroom and bathroom very comfortable. Especially for the price. The caretaker was very friendly and helpful with all the stairs.

The little stove worked fine, but maybe the owner could invest in something a bit better. The TV service was very limited and hard to operate. Parking was a bit difficult.

"Comfortable apartment with excellent sea view and near beaches and restaurants"

9.0

The location and view are faultless, it's such a stunning part of the bay and so close to the seafront. Very easy to walk along the coast to St James/Kalk Bay in one direction and Muizenberg in the other, or take a hike up the mountain. Yes there are stairs/it's steep to access but this was expected and fine. We parked on the road outside and it was safe. Walking distance to restaurants/beaches/shops. Very comfortable bed, safe secure quiet location, good shower.

Nespresso pods for the machine; TV didn't consistently work.
