Full self catering facilities were ideal. Location was ideal as well. Comfort and experience was wonderful
The towels could have been of better quality, more than one was needed on a daily basis. Need for improved power supply is needed during load shedding

I cannot begin to emphasise quite how stunning the views from Funkey Villas are - we overlooked the ocean with a backdrop of the 12 Apostles and Lions Head Mountains. The property is really lovely with kind hosts who really demonstrated an attention to detail - even down to guidebooks and useful travel bits left in the property. They also very kindly had a bottle of wine waiting for us upon arrival, as well as helped with 5 (rather heavy) suitcases up the stairs. We felt very secure here, and the only wish is that we could have stayed longer.

EXCEPTIONAL EXCEPTIONAL EXCEPTIONAL. you've got a Crazy wallpaper-like mountain view (table mountain) Crazy sea view, serenic property alll around and Dope pool and pool view. I couldn't wait to give a review . Safety wise: thieves would have Long day and time trying to get through ATLE ASt 3 doors/gates just to get to YOUR place then they have to get through your villas door . as a foreigner that took days to master opening them so get ready . the whole area is safe as I a bahamians first time walking in that area even for half an hour felt safe . not a soul is watching you. yous be surrounded by hundreds of cameras in the area so good luck robbing lol. Crazy good restaurants. I've even stayed home for days just to enjoy the views inside and out. PLEASE make sure to clean your lenses and get a good camera for the sunset and sunrise it's to die for. Staff wise once again the owner ms Nada is the sweetest young lady and highly mannered including Ms Noma(hope it's spelt right is just the sweetest. I don't know what possessed me to book this place I just know it needs to possess me again. it'll take HOURS giving a review just Please don't hesitate to book. i highly appreciate every single person that made my stay in camps bay perfect! DO NOT hesitate
only thing I hate is the perfect view showing off whether it's raing or sunny. the place is too clean and the security is a work of art !

We had a lovely stay at this accommodation! Was greeted warmly by the host! Comfortable accommodation! Host had left us a lovely bottle of wine which was much appreciated. Beach nearby. Camps bay centre a 20 minute walk but slightly hilly walk back.
We were happy staying here , the only thing we were not a big fan of was the toilet which as an extension to the bedroom just had a screen to separate from the main bed, a door would have been preferable. But apart from that we were happy with everything.

Great location, large and bright common areas with pretty views of the water, and comfortable beds. There is a coffee shop a 2 minute walk from the house which made mornings ever more pleasant, and walking to the commercial part of Camps Bay was a nice, mostly flat, 10-15 minute walk. There is no assigned parking spot but parking was always available on the street, right outside the door, and the area felt safe. Communication with the hosts was easy and pleasant. The kitchen is somewhat equipped, and had enough tools so we could cook a meal or two at home during our stay, as well as a braai.
The rooms were large and comfortable but there is no privacy when using the bathrooms (which are all en suite) if you are sharing a bedroom, since there is no real separation between the shower or toilet other than a glass divider or a small wall, depending on the bedroom. In other words, no matter the purpose of your bathroom use, it will be your roommate's business--this was true in at least 2 of the 3 bedrooms. This may not be an issue for everyone but it is worth noting.

This is a beautiful apartment in a lovely quiet area a short walk from town. The bed was amazing, the kitchen had everything we needed and there was a BBQ even though we didn't use it. I could live here, it was so nice. Camps Bay has lovely restaurants looking out to sea. We got Uber's home rather than walking back in the dark.
If I had to think of something..... the apartment we were in had a very open plan bathroom/toilet with the bedroom. We didn't mind so much but you might want your partner to leave the bedroom before using the toilet :-)

The location was excellent, and we felt safe the whole time. The apartment was huge and so clean. Nada and Alex were so helpful and friendly. We instantly felt right at home and had everything we needed. The outdoor space is a bonus, and even though the pool was cold, our boys still enjoyed it!! We would love to stay again and would highly recommend this apartment.

We had the pleasure of staying here for our honeymoon. The villa was beautiful, and the views of the sea and mountains were breathtaking. Nada was a fantastic host - friendly, great communication and couldn’t do enough for us. The location is great, a short walk down to the beach and Camps Bay had a nice welcoming vibe, with only a short taxi ride into the centre of Cape Town. Nada gave us some great recommendations for food and coffee in the area. We will be back soon!

Very good location. Bootleggers and Hussar Grill in walking distance. Very kind personell, especially Norma and owner Nada. Very good beds. You do not feel your partner turning, which is a big advantage for me. Nice, little yard. Gas and electric oven, when there is load shedding, you still can use it. Plenty of windows which can be opened and are secured.
Toilet has no door, that is true. But you can always sit in the living when your partner wants to have more privacy. The grill is quite rusty. Perhaps a cover would help?
