This is a beautiful location, the stunning view is the star and the staff are very pleasant and polite too. We had a number of small issues though with our room’s hot water and heating. Meaning we had to move room and had issues with the new room once in it. The staff did their best to help as they always seemed to do and they ended up resolved so it wasn’t the end of the world. We enjoyed the breakfast and found the meals perfectly adequate. We loved the old colonial style of the decorations and the local neighbourhood of Camps bay and the beautiful little pools everywhere and the stunning draw bridge. The padel tennis court was a nice touch. Overall the place feels nearly luxury but not yet quite there. This is not because of lack of effort. The staff are really great. With a few polishes and amendments to the overall standard this place would be of the first class - it was a very good experience just not a great one.

Beautiful property but breakfast needs attention!

Camps Bay Retreat is beautiful, we loved our stay, especially with having a wood fired hot tub. The breakfast was extremely disappointing with no continental buffet and many options not available on the small menu (avo, english muffin, tomatoes). We were also the last to order a coffee as there wasn't enough milk (this was at 08h30am in the morning). For a 5 star establishment, the breakfast is rated 3/10. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay.

It was very close to beaches. Property had many magical gardens & wood-burning hot tubs throughout the gardens that U can reserve… Absolutely magical & very friendly staff.

Loved it!

What a cool and unique hotel concept! A beautiful, old building makes up the core of the resort, with several newer houses around it that have been converted to hotel rooms. Multiple pools, nature paths, a pickle ball court... there's something for everyone. Plus, it's a very quick walk down to the beach!

Booked a room at Camps Bay Retreat for NYE - they told me my reservation was at Bay Hotel. That is NOT what I booked, but with it being NYE there were no other options around Cape Town. Bay Hotel is an entirely different property in an entirely different location. Not only did I have to stay at this property that I did not book, they would not provide any compensation for what they admitted was THEIR MISTAKE (a "system issue"). Beware of this bait and switch tactic they are using to show photos/descriptions of the Camps Bay Retreat to sell rooms at different properties. DO NOT RECOMMEND.

Manor has a Old World charm. Room was clean, large and well thought out. Staff were extremely helpful when called upon. Allowed us to relax and explore Camps Bay easily with a short drive from location. Grounds are well kept and offer quiet. View of water from the grounds is great while enjoying a drink. Enjoyed the stay and wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

When I stayed at The Camps Bay Retreat for the first time, a few years ago, I immediately realized that that I had found somewhere unique, special and breathtaking. It was unlike any other place I have stayed, and I have lived in four countries and have been fortunate enough to travel in the past. Every staff member and the especially the manager, went out of their way to fulfill every need, wish and want. I have stayed at The Camps Bay Retreat three times, and it is impossible to properly explain what is so incredibly special about it. One has to experience it. A wide expanse of ocean is one’s furthest view, and then the trees and plants and flowers and lawn that sweeps down the the gradual hill in front of the the majestic, old Manor house, and then less gradually, eventually down into a forest of naturally growing vegetation. The path down has hidden delights. The privacy and space of the land around and below the property, with tall trees and the abundant plants and flowers, are a perfect experience. The food is delicious and I ate food I had never tried before. I am very glad I did. The beds are very comfortable and each room is perfect in a different way. My love for history and the past made the main house perfect for me. There is a wonderful library and The Camps Bay Retreat, would always be my first choice, anywhere in the world, to stay and spend time.

Classical Gem on the Beach!

Absolute gem! Breathtaking location, walking distance to beach. Extremely comfortable beds, clean, quiet, very spacious and very friendly and personal service. A little odd is the inclusive breakfast, which only allows one pick off an a la carte menu. So if you have an omelette, but also want some fuits and yoghurt, you get charged extra. Dear Management, something to look into. Otherwise an absolutely wonderful stay and thank you very much for the upgrade!

Piece of nature

We didn’t really know what to expect, but this was amazing! From the deck house you literally have a view of the ocean, little nature reserve, Lion’s Head and the Twelve Apostles! We went for a walk on the grounds, swam in the mountain pool, played with Bangers the dog, had a massage, they squeezed us in at the restaurant even if it was fully booked and breakfast was amazing!

Great stay for some time out.

The cabins across the bridge are cosy and private. Leave good out for a minute and there is a trail of ants though. Breakfast is excellent. Gorgeous tennis court that is available to be booked by guests whenever. Excellent location. Incredible views. Really helpful staff.
