Excellent break while still able to work remotely!
We had a magical stay at this property.
The staff and owner went above and beyond to accommodate and provide an environment for remote working. Our suite came equipped with an inverter to maintain Wi-Fi and power supply to external monitors and laptops during load shedding times.
Able to continue to work uninterrupted, gave us time to enjoy the property more and the area better, knowing that the load shedding schedule would not hinder or interfere with getting assignments out on time.
We will without a doubt recommend this property to any, and to anyone that needs to continue to work while traveling.
Would love to have stayed longer, and without a doubt will return when visiting Gordon’s Bay in the future.

Perfect for our itinerary.
The house is on a quiet street on the beach. The Penthouse was on the top level up steep stairs that were fine for our family. We were able to find places to eat nearby but we also made our way to the Waterfront in Cape Town (about 45 minutes without traffic) for dinner. There are grocery options nearby that made grabbing a few breakfast items easy. The apartment has everything you could need for making meals via stove top or microwave or barbecue. We rented a car and the garage parking was very convenient. It was a perfect place for us to use to explore Cape Town and rest our heads at night.

The perfect paradise
Our stay at 185 Beach rd was absolutely amazing. Everything from checking in to the cottage and its breathtaking views were flawless. The cottage was beautifully decorated and the undisturbed ocean views even better. I loved the upper deck and that its so close to the ocean. Jeanette and her team really went that extra mile for my partner and I and we will definitely return to this gem.

Fantastic Location, Fantastic Views
Walking into these apartments gives you a definite 'wow' factor. You cannot get better views of the Indian Ocean - just fantastic. Very comfortable large bed, fantastic bathroom and fantastic locations. Any problems we had were addressed quickly/ We would stay here again.

Wonderful place to stay. Private balcony, private sitting area and a grill on the balcony. There are shared common areas which are quite lovely including sitting area and pool with bbq area. A great place to watch the sunset and relax. The only negative to the property is very limited parking. But, that would not stop me from returning to this property. Quite nice.

ocean front apartment in gordon bay, capetown.
we stayed in the penhouse with two bed rooms for a family of 5 comfortably. we love the view from our balcony. the only problem we had was we did not know this was an apartment because it stated on the expedia as this is a hotel, and we did not have a car. it was hard to get a taxi come by. it would be a perfect trip if you have a car or schedule a private car/ taxi in advanced. this is very close to nice restaurant and you can order pizza deliver to your room at night.
