Fantastic accommodation, gorgeous property, stunning views from the room, and 5-star guest service. It was so lovely, we decided to stay an extra night at The Bay Hotel. Convenient to everything, including the airport. I highly recommend this one!
The hotel is beautiful decorated from the lobbies to the rooms. The views are stunning! I took advantage of their spa and the treats were just what I needed. The women were terrific and so friendly!
Excellent hotel right on the beach front, plenty of options for food and drink within easy walking distance. Only slight down point was the swimming pool was extremely cold & was too cold to get in.
The location is special. Dissappointed that they have eliminated their high quality restaurant, now not much more than a deli. Breakfast buffet included was great
Very clean property, nice staff, good food. What wasn't good is the fact that they told us the pools were heated but they were ice cold. The rest was awesome, really! We enjoyed every minute.
This hotel is central camps bay. The room was spacious and comfortable. The view was amazing with a balcony that overlooked the pool and the ocean. If you’re looking for a beach vaca spot this is it!!
The bar and eating areas (and options) in the hotel are not great, the location and walking distance to other venues are. They hotel is getting a bit dated though.
