Friendly and great hospitality. Comfortable, modern, clean and tidy accommodation. We had our own external doors so we could come and go without having to walk through the main house, but we were connected as wel with another door if we needed to. Our room came with a fridge freezer, kettle, coffee machine, sink and a microwave. Loved the swimming pool! Felt secure and safe. We had a car and the area was a perfect base and the driving distance to lots of different restaurants, and roads easily accessible to go to Cape Town Waterfront, Bloubergstrand, Cape Point or Winelands. It feels central to the whole area. Great accommodation and lovely hosts.

Everything! Great view on the bay, great west orientation of the rooms enabling to enjoy the sunset from your room and balcony, beautiful modern house with vast bedroom and bathroom, very comfortable bed, great staff offering a great level of service and caring about making your experience as good as possible. Outstanding discussions with Ani who really helped us understand better South Africa and Cape Town and spent a lot of time with us. Fantastic breakfast. Location very practical to cover the various areas of interest of Cape Town by car, whilst being in a very safe, quiet residential area. Camps Bay as such is great, with probably one of the nicest beaches around Cape Town.

We had a wonderful stay at Central Villas in Camps Bay! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Blessing, the property manager, who truly made our experience exceptional. He was incredibly kind, helpful, and went out of his way to accommodate all of our requests, always with a smile and a can do attitude. The villa itself was beautiful and well-located, but it was Blessing’s attentiveness and hospitality that really stood out and made us feel at home. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for comfort, convenience, and excellent service in Camps Bay.
