Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.

Absolutely amazing!!
Rented this house for a week while travelling to South africa with my family and some friends, before my wedding.
Everything went really smoothly since I booked online and Sally was always kind and reassuring with every detail.
Even though we were late for our check-in, Sally was understanding and kind and was there in person to show us around. She even left a complimentary bottle of champagne for us! The whole week was fantastic and the house is absolutely beautiful, decorated with great taste and with impressive views. The location is very convenient.
I remember I had my doubts when booking online and this was my first experience and I must say it coulnd't have been better.

Unforgettable!
We came to Sa for a wedding and stayed at No.17 with another family - great friends of ours who now live in Boston USa. That meant we were two families of 5 but we had plenty of space and the kids spent a lot of time in the pool which was a bit too chilly for the adults! Being in Camps Bay meant we were well situated for the beach, trips into Cape Town, walks up The Lions Head (fantastic views!). The house and the views from the balcony are what made this trip truly unforgettable. We hope to go back one day.

excellent location in lovely setting of table mountain
Cannot fault the property and the owners were very helpful. Sally and family were there to welcome us and made us feel at home straight away. Visited Sa for our daughter's wedding at 12 apostles Hotel in Camps Bay. Very central location for Cape Town and surrounding areas. Security very good and did not feel at all intimidated. If we went back to Cape Town would certainly stay here again.

Very happy with the stay
Spent a week at 17 Ravensteyn Road and was very happy. A beautiful home with a nice, but cold, swimming pool. Excellent view over the ocean and Table mountain.

Another Day in Paradise
This is the perfect accommodation for a family holiday/vacation. Our family of eight from Canada and Finland had a once in a life time experience. The accommodation was perfect. The mountains and the sea were stupendous. The sunsets were spectacular. Sally and Clyde were welcoming, helpful and responsive. What more could you want?

Stunning villa
We are just coming back from our holidays in Cape Town and stayed at this fantastic villa. The pictures on trip advisor do not convey the absolute beauty of the place... nor do they show the stunning scenery from the balcony, the views on the mountains and on the ocean, with a different light every evening during sunset. The house has got a great feeling to it and you instantly feel at home the minute you set foot in the entrance. The rooms are huge and three of them have large bathrooms as ensuite, which was perfect for our group, as we could all do our own things in the house without being on top of each other all the time. The pool is heated and amazing.There are two terraces and one of them has got a large table where you can eat as you watch the sunset... Sally, who's looking after the property, lives nearby and was extremely helpful. We will definitely book again on our next trip, what a gem!
