Neil, our host, was wonderful.!! So friendly and helpful - provided maps of the area with lots of restaurant suggestions and also tour/sightseeing information. He was there to help with any questions. The property itself is beautiful - a lovely garden, pool, breakfast area around the pool and wonderful artworks displayed throughout ( he provided information about the artists in the info book in our room). We loved our room - a huge comfortable bed, very sound proofed and clean. We didn't have a room with a balcony but there's a lovely balcony available just down the hall The location is perfect - right near the Hop on/Hop off bus stop which is how we got around the two days we were in Cape Town. Overall, we were delighted with Neil and the property and would highly recommend Villa Costa Rose to anyone traveling to Cape Town. Thank you, Neil, for your warm hospitality

Nothing - it was great!

Excellent location. Exceptionally friendly and welcoming team. Brilliant breakfast. The comfiest bed. Amazing shower. Absolutely everything you could need provided. Lush, jasmine garden with pool & sun loungers. Peaceful and quiet neighbourhood. Felt safe walking around; given helpful recommendations where to visit. Can go paragliding, walk along seafront promenade to The Waterfront, get the tour bus up to Table Mountain. Woolworths mini mart (which is like a M&S) 5 mins walk away so can get snacks and drinks to pop in the fridge in your room. Complimentary water in Villa. Great to sit out on balcony of an evening. Great coffee shops, bakeries, restaurants all with 10 mins walk. Highly recommend.

Noting

What a lovely guest house. The room/suite was fantastic, with a lovely balcony and relaxed seating. The entire guest house features fabulous art work by one of the owners. A lovely touch upon arrival was a bottle of white waiting for us in the fridge in our room. The location in Sea Point is fantastic. A quick Uber into town and the waterfront. The neighbourhood itself has plenty of shops and restaurants within walking distance. The seafront is lovely to walk along, however, it is not a beach for swimming. Breakfast, made to order by Neil and his team was lovely with great options. Bonus, they have a storage room so you can leave your luggage on the day you leave and it also has a shower too! So you can freshen up before heading to your next destination.

We had a pleasant stay at Villa Costa Rose. The location at Sea Point was very convenient, and the room was comfortable and well-appointed, making it easy to relax. The breakfast was fine, with a decent variety of options to start the day. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which added to the positive experience. Overall, it’s a nice place to stay with a few minor improvements that could make it even better.

The only, not really downside, was the presence of cat hair in some areas, which might not be ideal for those with allergies or a preference for spotless cleanliness.

Since we booked, Neil contacted us and helped us book a pickup from the airport (a bit more expensive than Uber but, super helpful!). When we arrived Neil greeted us and provided us with information of STUNNING restaurants and tours We booked a tour to the Cape of Good Hope through him which was great!The guest house is located right in the heart of Sea Point! It has a charming dining area where Neil makes you a delicious breakfast daily. My favourite was the eggs with bacon and a plate of fresh fruit afterwards! The room exceeded our expectations, it was really big, and after travelling for a few days staying in small rooms this was awesome! The bed and pillows were super comfy, the shower was great and when the weather was nice the balcony was a great place to relax! Neil and the staff at Villa Cosa were amazing, attentive and kind. I definitely recommend this place and my husband and I wish to come back here on our next visit to Cape Town.

Location was very good with lots of restaurants nearby and a short walk to the promenade and a red sightseeing bus stop. Neil was very helpful throughout our stay! He recommended some local restaurants, sorted out breakfast for us the night before on the days we had to be up early and let us check out an hour later as we had an issue with our suitcase zip which had broken that needed fixing. Spacious clean rooms, big comfortable bed, rooms had usb charging ports which was useful as didnt need an adaptor, great breakfast. Overall a lovely stay

The property was a great location and the decor was very pleasant. It felt like you were staying with a friend who has good taste in decorating. Our room was very spacious and comfortable. We had a nice balcony to sit on and enjoy a glass of wine with a great view of signal hill and table mountain. Breakfast in the morning was fabulous also. The location is perfect. It’s just a few blocks walk to the coastline walk. Also many different restaurants within easy walking distance.

I can’t think of anything. If I visit Cape Town again, this will be the first place I check for availability. We really enjoyed our stay.

We upgraded to the suite when we checked in. This was a bargain at only R300 more than the Standard Room. The Suite was exquisitely furnished and comfortable and had a lovely balcony with a Daybed where we could relax with our magazines and drinks. Neil is a very charming and helpful host, and even packed some goodies in the fridge in our room for breakfast when we advised that we were taking an early flight the next morning. Breakfast was delicious, with a large assortment of hot and cold food to choose from. Smudge who is the resident Feline only added to the charm and quaintness of this lovely place. Will definitely visit again.

The flight of stairs up to the Suite was a bit of a challenge with our Suitcases, but it was well worth it when we got to the top and saw the beautiful view of Table Mountain. Neil also very kindly assisted us.

This is a fab guest house, tucked away from the main road but close to all the facilities. Neil made us very welcome when we checked in and made sure we had a lovely vegan breakfast (we requested this in advance). Our room was clean and comfortable with a nice balcony. There was complimentary wine and soft drinks in the fridge which was a great touch. There is lots of fab artwork in the shared areas and corridors, produced by Neil's partner. Plus, if you like cats, the lovely, friendly Smudge was always happy to have a cuddle.

The shower pressure was a bit low.

This is such a fab little spot - a street or two away from the main hustle which means it’s tucked away from any noise or traffic. Walking distance to heaps of fab coffee shops (Ollie’s does an amazing coffee!) and easy enough to stroll into town if you’re fancy some scenery and steps in. The room we had was the double and it was upstairs adjacent to the welcome area/breakfast room, I was worried we would be disturbed when people were up early having brekky but we didn’t hear a peep. The bed was comfy, room was clean and all the amenities you need. Neil and his staff at Villa Costa are so lovely, he makes a bloody good scrambled egg and beautiful breakfast options to eat on the Patio by the pool in the morning. Neil was very accommodating and quick to respond with any questions I had which made being in a new city all the easier. Really couldn’t ask for more from your accommodation, ticks all the boxes for a wonderful stay in Cape Town.
