Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travellers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
A wonderfully tucked away bed and breakfast in the heart of Gordon’s Bay. We needed a night of luxury and we got it at a last minute booking on a busy Summers evening. Antoinette welcomed us with treats and surprises in our room. Firstly we where very happy to see a huge size double bed bigger than most and a bath tub with lots of candles. The night was enjoyed and we slept well. Antoinette is clearly well travelled and has filled the bed and breakfast tastefully with eclectic art and memorabilia of Europe makes you feel like you are entirely somewhere else. We soaked up the sun and the views of the bay while enjoying her homemade breakfast.

We stayed at the lodge for one night but wish we had more time to stay longer. It was a wonderful experience which we really enjoyed. The location of the lodge is perfect within walking distance to the restaurants. The owner, Antoinette is a nice and very friendly person who recommended us to try restaurant Zest which was very close to the Lodge and had delicious food for dinner. The atmosphere at the hotel is very friendly and relaxing. Our room was very nicely decorated with very comfortable bed. In the evening we enjoyed nice breeze and the sound of the waves just sitting outside our room. I have to mention breakfast which was so delicious with wide variety of options! I would highly recommend this hotel!!

Gordons Beach Lodge is Probably the best BNB that i have ever stayed at. The rooms are beyond amazing with all the decorations and lets not even start with the beautiful bathrooms they have in the rooms. The service that the owners provide is Just something to experience, super friendly and very accommodating , once you step into Gordon's Beach Lodge you immediately feel like you were meant to be here. I will defiantly recommend any and all to book into this BNB as it is really that good.

I found Gordon’s Bay beach lodge to be clean and neat and kept that way through my stay. The only slight issue was it is on the main beach road which is a pro and a con in that you can walk to some very pleasant spots. The con is that sometimes the small amount of traffic think it’s a race course so once or twice and evening a vehicle is loud.

Thank you for the outstanding service and accommodation. Extremely neat, clean and best breakfast in Cape Town. Will surely visit again. The Honesty Bar is also something that you do not find every day and we enjoyed that as well.

This was an ideal bed and breakfast for our visit to Bikini Beach. Antoinette was super friendly and an attentive host. You can tell she loves what she does. The breakfast was incredible, and the view from the courtyard of the water is breathtaking. Highly recommend.

Absolutely perfect in each and every way. Loved the friendly reception, mouth watering breakfast and fantastic view. Decor and ambiance will impress any connoisseur. Situated in up marked area and walking distance to beach. Left with a heavy heart but a memory to last a lifetime. Will definately be back and recommend it to all my business associates, friends and family. Thank you Antoinette for professional and attentive service, also for your everlasting smile and kindness. See you soon.
