Thank you for being the perfect host.
The house was outstanding, the view superb and it was an excellent experience overall.

I rate the house we lived in a 4 because we did not get the house we paid for and the pool area was not neat and tidy where we lived in.

The establishment's response:
We feel the guest was given an exceptional offer. It was their honeymoon and we offered the privacy and luxury of an entire house rather than merely a room within a house as per the booking.

I took my family for their first holiday in Cape Town, and were blown away by the hospitality from Marcus and his team. This truly was the best holiday experience. The best part car hire at a reasonable price. Thanks again Marcus, we will be back next year, especially for Nyami's perfectly fried eggs.

The staff was very friendly, the establishment is in a safe environment, I can still stay there some other time. Homely environment however I still think they can still improve on privacy.

The establishment needs some maintenance or major refurbishment, it would be nice if the owners can inset tv sets in each room, the improvements will obviously increase the tarrifs

The establishment's response:
I don't know, what maintenance he meant, but we're busy now in low season
with the usual maintenance one cannot do in high season (painting, etc).

My husband and I stayed at Camelthorn Lodge in March 2011- very short stay. We will return anytime. Marcus and his team made us feel at home away from home. Beautiful homely place with amazing views of both the sea and Table Mountain. Great value for money.

The place is very clean and has a good vibe, the staff is welcoming. Marcus is a polite helpful man. Thank you so much for your hospitality, the location is ideal just a few minutes walk from the buzzing bars and trendy beaches but still in a calm area overlooking a stunning view. I travel alot, i have been to many guest houses but Camelthorn Lodge is my favourite.
