We stayed in Treetops and it was like staying in a treehouse! we absolutely loved it and had so much fun. the owner, Janis, said it was like “glamping” however the rooms are indoors so did not feel like camping at all. the owner and her husband were amazing and very welcoming and we had a nice cuddle with their dog, Storm. We will definitely be back as soon as possible!

    Penthouse suite is a very large room with spectacular Table Mountain view. Lots of restaurants nearby. Generator powers the entire hotel during load shedding. The staff was excellent. I had forgotten a prescription medicine. They arranged a telehealth call with a doctor who emailed us a prescription which we were able to fill quickly and cheaply at the pharmacy across the street. We really appreciated the staff's effort and the ease of the arrangements made. They also stored our extra luggage during a 4-day safari.

    We had an incredible stay at the blackheath lodge in Cape Town. Central location to other neighborhoods on Cape Town, good quality breakfast, small pool area is serene - but the best part of our stay here was the service. The concierge team (Robyn and Riano) went above and beyond to help us plan our trip, providing us with recommendations for tours, restaurants - whatever we needed. They go the extra mile to ensure that every moment of your stay is comfortable and that you have everything you need. Thank you, Robyn and Riano!
