ocean view gem

beachfront room ocean view fine view

I had a beachfront room a short distance from the sand. hearing the ocean at all times was very soothing. the view included table mountain, robben island, and the coastline! the bar area provided shelter from the wind while preserving the view.

I experienced a slight delay before i could access my room. I waited in the restaurant area, though the staff didn't notify me when it was ready.

My beachfront room gave me direct access to the sand. the view included table mountain and robben island, i found this very pleasing. the bar area provided shelter from the wind. I could still admire the view. ample and safe parking added to my convenience.

i found that the hotel's distance from cape town cbd meant i needed a car to access attractions.
