Airport pickup did not turn up - when we finally arrived at hotel (at additional taxi expense) & brought to owners attention he responded with extreme brusqueness implying it was our fault.The room was tired and barely cleaned. Staff ( including owner & spouse) rude and unhelpful. Whatever organisation monitors tourist accomodation in Cape Town should investigate this establishment. Its... More

We stayed here for two nights and thought it was perfect. Close to great restaurants, the beach and fantastic views of table mountain. Would recommend a stay here to anyone. More

Very welcoming and almost like your own lilttle space for a few nights. Great sounds from the beach nearby, cozy porch made private by a clever curtain, super comfy beds, clean, and very hospitable staff and owner. Staff helped us get a car (sorry to say you will want one). Breakfast was included and we enjoyed it, cheeses, jams, eggs... More

Just 5 minute walk up the hill from a beautiful seawall that makes for great walking. Room and ensuite were tidy, clean and nicely furnished. No TV in room, but a nice one in the communal living room downstairs. Everyone told us it's safe to walk during the day but not at night (anywhere in Capetown). We did this and... More

We stayed for three nights in Feb 2011. The guest house is very clean and ideally situated for seeing cape town if you have a car. Very helpful staff making restaurant reservation, enquiring as to whether table mountain visibility good and suggestions for tours etc. The breakfast was served outdoors and was delicious. The honesty bar was useful to end... More

My husband and I stayed here for the first two of our eight-night stay in Cape Town. The room was very bright, clean, and reasonably-sized. It also had a very nice bathroom and opened out onto a deck. Breakfast was delicious. The location is pretty good--it's in a quiet neighborhood and a 10-minute walk to anywhere you'd want to go...

We just returned from 4 nights at Villa Sunshine. I am a corporate event planner and my husband was with Westin for years so we have pretty high standards and this property EXCEEDED our expectations. Located 3 blocks from the sea walk, it was a $3.00 cab ride into the main part of town. And two blocks from the "hop... More

I saw a NEW advert, posted 26 Dec 2009. I followed the link to verify it is a reputable or traceable supplier advertising for self catering apartments during January 2010. The advertised price was R500 per night per apartment. [Hidden Web Address] When I made enquiries the price was now suddenly: It is available for the time you have requested... More

This enquiry came in over the weekend when our newly appointed intern was on duty. She quoted the client the standard daily rates of the apartment completely forgetting that the special was running. Unfortunately mistakes are made especially when new staff members are appointed, however it was rectified by me as soon as I realised (the very next day) incorrect... More

Villa sunshine is ideally located between the great landscapes of lionshead and the ocean as well as capetowns city center amenities and the fantastic beaches of Camps Bay and Clifton. I stayed there during a "driving licence free" period ;-) for ten days and had enough options to stay away from boredom. It's a five minutes walk to the ocean... More

The Villa Sunshine Guest House definetly lived up to its name. A very bright lively house that is centally located to everything you would want to do. Yet still quiet and relaxing when you're ready to turn in for the night. The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend taking the self-driven tour of that they... More
