Sea Five Boutique Hotel

Excellent hotel, fabulous rooms with everything that you could wish for. Super hot showers, spotless throughout and lovely bedlinen. Staff were excellent, especially Jody who was so helpful and the perfect host. Nice and quiet too, away from the hustle of Camps Bay but close enough. We will def return.

We arrived early on a Sunday morning after a long 12 hour flight. We were immediately made to feel welcome and given a drink and offered breakfast. The hotel is bright and airy and so relaxing. Check in was quick and easy. We were shown to our room on the top floor which turned out to be the penthouse suite. It’s stunning. Four balconies or terraces offering amazing views of the Atlantic and the back of Table Mountain. Plenty of tea and coffee. Adequate toiletries and lots of bottled water. Everything was white and airy with patio doors to let the outside in. Breakfast included fresh fruits and yogurts. Pastries or muffins and freshly cooked items from the kitchen. Apart from being small, intimate and away from the bustle of the sea front the staff made this visit. Had we not had a planed itinerary we would have stayed longer. Cyndi and every member of the staff could not have done more for us. I really did t want to leave.

We loved this stylish boutique hotel. Our room no 4 on first floor was fabulous. Not much of a view but we spent our sunbathing time on the balcony around the pool. Breakfast was very good with a range of fruit, yogurt , cereals etc and a cooked breakfast option too. Very good service. The staff were friendly and helpful, always checking we were ok. Excellent location and couple of blocks from the beach and restaurants. Nice snd quiet after the bustle of the sea front, We would definitely come back again. I would definitely recommend a first floor room. Ours was massive with lovely furnishings and products. The well stocked complimentary fridge is very welcome .

After gaining entry to Sea Five by intercom the first thing you see are two flights of stone stairs, which were a bit daunting after a twelve hour flight or I imagine would be if you had mobility problems. However, the welcome we received from Cyndy and staff was very warm and there were many hands to help carry our bags. Once inside, the whole feeling of the place is one of light and space, and I can imagine if the weather was warm and sunny, with the doors open onto the pool and small deck it would be ideal. Unfortunately our first day there was very cold and windy, and we felt more in need of a hot water bottle! We had a garden room on the ground floor, which was great as the Wi-Fi worked in our room, whilst I understand it doesn’t in the upper rooms. Breakfast was lovely with plenty of choice of cereals, fruit, yoghurt etc, with a good choice of hot dishes to follow if required. Sea Five is ideally situated, only a five minute walk from the main beach road where many cafes, restaurants and bars can be found, but also far enough away to be very quiet and peaceful at night. We also felt very safe in the Camps Bay Area, in fact I thought it the ideal area to stay in Cape Town, with a magnificent beach and crashing waves that you could watch for hours. The staff could not do enough for you, always smiling, and were helpful confirming our car hire for us. There is a free mini bar in the room, containing wine and beer and soft drinks, plus fresh milk for either tea or coffee (a nespresso machine) All in all, this was a great place to begin our holiday in South Africa. Thank you to Cyndy and all her staff for making our stay such a pleasant one.
