We had an absolutely delightful four-night stay at Villa Jesdene in Cape Town. The property was spotless, beautifully maintained, and incredibly cozy—perfect for weathering the big Cape storms. Every detail was thoughtfully considered, from the welcoming ambiance to the attentive housekeeping staff who went above and beyond. The owners were genuinely accessible and always ready to assist with any request. It felt like staying in a private home with world-class hospitality. This is not just a place to sleep—it’s a memorable experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for comfort, charm, and exceptional service in a stunning location.
Wild Olive Guest House
Staying at Wild Olive Guest House was a truly enjoyable experience. The property is beautifully designed in a modern Cape Dutch style, blending colonial charm with contemporary touches. The room was spacious and comfortable, and the ground-floor common areas have a stylish, nostalgic vibe that pays homage to South Africa's colonial past. I appreciated the convenience of drinks available in the fridge for purchase—perfect for a quick refreshment. The pricing was fair considering the quality and location. However, it was disappointing that supplies weren’t restocked when the owners were away. Breakfast was decent overall, though the Eggs Benedict could’ve been better—more flavorful and properly cooked. One major downside was the constant staff turnover, which made it hard to build rapport with any consistent point of contact. It felt like every time I needed help, I had to start from scratch. Despite this, the ambiance, location, and overall comfort make this a great choice for travelers seeking a unique and authentic stay in Cape Town. Would definitely recommend for those looking for character and charm.

It’s an ideal base for exploring nearby destinations like Stellenbosch, with easy access and a peaceful atmosphere. The hospitality, comfort, and overall experience made this a standout choice. Highly recommended for travelers looking for a relaxing, well-located spot in Cape Town.
Flatrock Suites
Staying at Flatrock Suites was a major disappointment. The hotel is located directly above a nightclub, and the loud music and constant laughter kept going until 6 a.m., making it nearly impossible to sleep. I booked a two-bedroom suite, but only one room had air conditioning— the other had no fan at all, which made it extremely uncomfortable in the heat. To make matters worse, the DSTV service didn’t work, and despite reaching out to the property management team, I received zero support or assistance. There were also no curtains or blinds on the main bedroom door, so sunlight flooded into the room by 5 a.m., disrupting any chance of rest. Overall, the experience was poor, with multiple basic amenities failing and no effort from staff to resolve issues. Definitely not worth it, and I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.
