Perfect location, amazing staff
The waterfront is an amazing place to stay in Cape Town. The staff is amazing, the security is super secure, it’s easy walking to the Waterfront and the Hop On, Hop Off bus. It’s one of my favorite places to stay!

The property itself is beautiful, especially along the canal. However, we found the location and reception very hard to find, as did several Ubers that we tried to call. This made things challenging as we did not want to walk alone at night and needed pickup. Also, there were some cleanliness complaints with our unit, although management was responsive.

Lovely apartments, great location
Beautiful location, very well maintained grounds and apartment itself was in great condition with everything needed. The only gripe was that Hotels.com directions take you to the MindPearl building which used to house the admin, on the other side of the complex.
Having asked a security guard where we were supposed to go, we drove round and got into the complex but were then left with a bit of a struggle to find reception. Once there everything was good!
The short walk into the V&A along the water was lovely and there are great views wherever you look.

Great place to stay with friends!
Loved staying here! Close to all the action! Especially great to travel as friends because it provided a great place to visit in the evening instead of in hotel rooms. Would love to return again.

Spotless and all around excellent apartment
Spotless apartment overlooking the marina. Short walk to V&A shops and the countless outstanding restaurants. Excellent location. Check-in after 3pm might be a bit challenging so get written directions in advance so your taxi can go to the right location for you to check-in 24/7. Very friendly everywhere.

Outstanding accommodation Waterfront Cape Town
The apartments in the Waterfront Village are exceptional and the perfect place to stay in Cape Town. Safe, comfortable, quiet, clean and spacious apartment in a gated community; parking spaces available; exceptionally helpful staff; five minutes safe walk to the waterfront with a myriad of restaurants and shops; host of different tour boats available within walking distance ... all against the backdrop of Table Mountain.

The location is unbeatable, a safe 5 min walk to the V&A waterfront. Secure parking, friendly staff. The apartment was spacious and clean with in suite laundry and a dishwasher. More than enough space for 4 adults and our view to the canal was beautiful.

This was a good first step for some of my family members. For regular travelers like myself, I'd recommend starting at Boulders Beach or other places on the ocean.
