56 guests' feedbackWe had a wonderful stay. The room was nice and clean and had a beautiful view.
The wind blew a lot. There was no WiFi and no reception. It put me off a bit, I wasn't happy about it.
Everything perfect, very welcoming, clean and spotless accommodation and fantastic views.
We got value for our money. The place was neat. The view of the sea was breathtaking.
We were 4 adults just for a night to run the False Bay Ultra. The apartment is super neat and the owners are friendly and incredibly hospitable!
What an unforgettable stay it was. Very relaxing. Most needed. The view. Breathless. Great thanks.
Nice stay and nice view.
The view was fantastic and the unit was very clean. Not your modern type of unit, but you feel very much at home. It should perhaps be clearly mentioned that there are many steps down to the accommodation. It didn't bother us at all - good exercise. Will definitely stay there again.
Stay was very nice, very nice view. Apartment's decor is just a bit old.
Perfect view, nice and quiet for a getaway.
Breathtaking view. Hospitable owners.
The unit's decor is very "homely", makes you long for your mother's house. The location is central if you want to visit Hermanus or West Coast with Stellenbosch between the two coastal areas. Will definitely visit the Cape Sea View again.
Nice quiet environment with a wonderful view. Gas stove is an asset during power outages. Hostess very helpful!
Would not hesitate to book Cape Sea View again.
The view, place, everything awesome.
Saw dolphins and seals swimming by and looked further at the beautiful nature.
Beautiful swimming past seen by large group of dolphins and seals. For the hiker there are also many challenges in the area.
The hostess was very hospitable, it's very private and everything you need is there. Will definitely go back. An air conditioner is the only thing missing from the Seal bedroom.
The view is spectacular. Very close to restaurants and beach.
Note that there are quite a few stairs.
It was nice.
Dit was 'n Cape Sea View.
Had a very nice weekend visit.
I can really recommend Hester's apartments. It's value for money.
A great spot high above the bay with stunning views and somewhere to watch the whales and dolphins. Everything was very clean and comfortable with all the amenities you would expect. The hosts were very kind and helpful with me as I was having difficulties arranging things around the red list Covid restrictions, will definitely return for another stay.
Will definitely book at Cape Sea View again.
Would love to go there again anytime. Nice sea view, the house itself has space and the bedrooms well equipped. Was a great time with my kids.
Beautiful people, everything you need.
The apartment is well furnished, neat and clean.
The aunt was very very kind.
We had a lovely stay with such an incredible view!
Nice and safe. Awesome views.
The perfect place if you want to overlook the sea on the patio and hear the waves. A charming, quaint location with lots of character. Hester is friendly and helpful and this is already becoming my regular annual holiday!
Had a great time there, quiet, clean, tidy with the most beautiful view over the bay! Great people and people of the heart, thank you uncle and aunt!
Great place to relax and enjoy the peace and quite. Beautiful view.
We had a great time! Got a good rest.
The views across the ocean and of the mountains are absolutely stunning and breathtaking. The venue is built into the mountainside and is utterly charming.The honeymoon-suite is private with a patio and perfect for self-catering if you so wish. Cute and quaint natural gardens. For me it was heaven on earth and I shall return. Peaceful and relaxing and great to get away from the hustle and bustle! I had a warm and friendly welcome and was communicated with every step of the way. Thank you!
A nice peaceful place to relax and recharge.
The unit was neat and clean, well equipped with a beautiful sea view in a relaxing environment. We will definitely visit again.
Very comfortable, neat and clean. The most beautiful view of the sea, we just wanted to sit on the porch all day. Very private and quiet. A pleasant experience.
Very nice stay. Close to shops and central.
The sea view is of course the greatest asset of this house. It's also close to most good restaurants and malls, and close to main supply routes. The 62 steps to the Seal is a great workout every time, and comes as a free bonus! Would love to stay again anytime, but for longer!
Clean and safe. Everything you need.
This is home away from home with the most amazing view. It is a very good place to explore the Cape Town area and yet one is also happy just to sit and chill on the deck.
See stars.
Cape Sea View is highly recommended. It compares well with other destinations of comparable prices.
Nice hosts and comfortable accommodation with a breathtaking view. Very central and close enough to visit Stellenbosch, Franschhoek and Cape Town. An experience like few! We would highly recommend the accommodation and recommend Gordons Bay and the Beach.
We really enjoyed our stay at Cape Sea View. The accommodation is clean and very tidy. The view over the bay is breathtaking and good for the soul. The customer service was very good and I would definitely recommend the stay. Definitely a must experience.
A very nice place with a breathtakingly beautiful sea view. Auntie Hester and her husband were wonderful and very helpful. The place was well rested and clean. Will book there again anytime.
Everything is fantastic. Unfortunately no safe parking. The steps downstairs can be a problem for some guests - luckily wasn't a problem for me.
We had a wonderful stay! Nice spacious place, tidy and it has a veranda with beautiful views. Thank you!
The owner wasn't very friendly. The place is also not clean. I will not stay there again.
Quiet, clean, fantastic and no other words than perfect.
We got an apartment that was on the ground and you use the stairs which was of an exercising manner, otherwise it was peaceful and far from the day to day activities like shops and other staff. You have to use your transport as there is no public transport.
