Yes, it is a bit of a drive into Gordon's Bay, but if it wasn't you wouldn't get the breathtaking views over False Bay. We stayed for 4 nights and would have happily stayed longer. Our 'room' was very well designed with plenty of space to spread out. The bathroom was spacious and well appointed, as were the bedroom and... More

The thing you notice first are the views across the whole of False Bay, which are absolutely breathtaking! We stayed for 3 nights at the end of a great holiday around the Western Cape, and what a way to finish our trip. The warmth of the welcome we got from Marianne and Alex was very genuine and inclusive. They really... More

Unfortuately we had just one night at Apricot Gardens. Really nice, spacious and well equipped rooms. Quite amazing and beautiful views over False Bay and Cape Town. Delightful pool. All in all a great place to stay, and convenient for the Airport.

We'd been there for 14 relaxing days. It's a central place to visit the whole Cap Aerea and Marianne and Alex will pamper you with everything you need. Even the breakfast is great - fresh baked bread, fruits and a mystic juice every day! We felt very comfortable and will come back next year.

Apricot gardens is a place to put on your list. A very rustic and lovely place at Gordon’s Bay. Very well situated near CapeTown International airport and near downtown CapeTown, but far enough to escape the city hustle and bustle. The beaches at Gordon’s Bay are not that interesting, but you don’t have to go there. You don’t want to... More

The previous reviews have said it all. Apricot Gardens should be a must on everybody's itinerary if they travel along the Garden Route. A very big thank you to Marianne and Alex for making our stay so enjoyable.

Apricot Garden is a real find. Alex and Marianne are friendly hospitable hosts who always have time to talk to their guests and do their best to make everything as perfect as possible. The location is truly beautiful situated on the mountain side overlooking False Bay all the way from Table Mountain to the Cape of Good Hope. Alex's evening... More

We spent two nights here and would love to have stayed much longer. The views of the mountains and sea are spectacular, particularly at sunset. The room was very clean and spacious and the breakfast area, verandah and pool area all beautiful. It is a place to go and relax - so quiet! Alex and Marianne were wonderful hosts and... More
