Customer service was great - we had lots of issues before travelling to SA and BlueViews were very flexible and accommodated all of our awkward date changes. We were staying in Penthouse 2 which was lovely on the surface, very big property with 5 bedrooms. Only criticism would be the property looks very tired now. Kitchen is good but sofa is worn, paint/plaster chipping, fireplace looked broken?, outdoor area needs a good clean (lots of dirt within the sofa covers on the outer seating areas). As we were only there for 2 days it wasn't massively inconvenient but we had initially booked to stay for 5 days and this would have been very disappointing to have paid so much and had this standard. Bedrooms otherwise clean and team fairly responsive - we had heavy winds the afternoon we checked in and all outdoor furniture flew into the pool, the pool guy came the next morning to remove everything and clean the pool. Good security and location, and great garage for parking.

We were a group of 12 and we stayed at their Terrace property located on the main road. The apartment consisted of 7 bedrooms (2 on the 2nd level and 5 on the 3rd level). We were very happy with the well furnished spacious bedrooms and the gorgeous sunset view smack in the middle of the living room view. The kitchen was well stocked up with all the essential crockery+cutlery and brownie points for the Nespresso machine! They also had street parking on the sidewalk which was a big plus for Camps Bay.

A couple of downsides were:
1. The load shedding-not really in their hands but the backup was only for the common areas and limited to 1 table lamp in the bedrooms.
2. We had help from the housekeeper but getting so much luggage up on the 2nd and 3rd floor can be a challenge.

Very cooperative and professional management who were prompt with their replies. Overall, a smooth experience and a very memorable stay.

We were very generously welcomed to Penthouse 4 by friendly and helpful staff who escorted us to our apartment, ideally situated in the most beautiful and serene location in Camps Bay. Spoiled by outstanding views overlooking the beach, glass-like tidal pool and Twelve Apostle mountain range from both the upper and lower levels. We had gorgeous Winter weather and bided our time watching swimmers enjoy the tidal pool morning to evening throughout the weekend. The apartments were fully equipped so that we could enjoy making dinner together as friends and family, the soft gowns, hair dryers and bath and swimming towels meant we could pack light. The interiors are minimal, stylish and spacious.  We were able to walk everywhere that we wanted to go - into Camps Bay to all our favourite restaurants and to the beach just right across the road. The apartment was immaculate on arrival and fully serviced during our stay with full attentive staff who were always available, and the unit was secure with an alarm and covered parking bay. We enjoy sundowners from our balcony on sun loungers alongside the swimming pool, and since we were feeling very lazy on arrival the staff arranged champagne, wine and milk for our early morning Nespresso cappuccino. My favourite moment was taking a bath while looking out over the bay, since one has a full view through a large window from the bathroom and bed. It was also very quietly located and comfortable. I would love to go back again and left feeling totally rejuvenated after my stay here!

Positives. Awesome location with amazing balcony views, and great facilities in the Penthouse. Issues were fixed quickly when asked and the staff were responsive.
Negatives. For the price they need to put solar power or a generator to compete with other places as the loadshedding was up to 3 times a day, and you can't see at night, cook, or use the laundry. The gym is not available to Penthouse guests despite advertising the facilities in every room via the South Beach booklet.

Hi Charlie, Whilst we are pleased that you mostly enjoyed your experience in the Penthouse, I would like to respond to the negatives. We do have battery/inverter to keep some of the lights on so we can only assume that it was an error on our behalf in not showing you how these operate. It is however correct that during power outages the appliances do not work but this is usually at night and therefore not a major inconvenience. Regarding the gym, this is available to Penthouse guests on request and subject to availability. Thank you for your constructive comments and we will ensure this does not happen to future guests. Warm regards, Blue Views Team

I just love the natural light in the building, the insane views from the big Balcony and the spacious rooms and comfortable beds. It was such a treat waking up and having the ocean right in front of you. You can’t possibly get a better location than this, close to the beach and the vibey restaurants in Camps Bay and also if you need to pick up some groceries, all so close by. Really loved my stay 😀 thank you

5/5 stay. Safe, secure, great location. Came on a girls trip and it was lovely. We all felt safe, there are four loungers and a big pool, only thing is pool can be quite cold at times but the sun shining makes it refreshing to dip in for a bit. There are two great bedrooms with en-suites. Very spacious and modern area, highly recommend. Should you need anything there is a reception team 10 minutes walk away or 4 min Uber away.

Beautiful penthouse apartment with 360 views of the sea and mountain ! We had such an amazing stay here, the penthouse is beautifully modern and open plan. The location is perfect just outside of the hustle and bustle of Camps Bay so its so peaceful and quiet whilst being close to everywhere.

A superb apartment which was ideal for our family party of 9 people including children. In a quiet area, walkable to Camps Bay. We didn't have a car and took advantage of the service provided by the managing company to buy initial supplies. Afterwards we were able to buy what we needed from the local supermarkets [Maybe 3/4 mile away]. If we were to return again to Camps Bay / CapeTown [transport needed to get there] we would have no hesitation in booking here again

Blue views apartments was an amazing experience. Beautiful apartment in a beautiful setting. The staff were incredibly helpful and welcoming .
They organised a pick up from the airport when we arrived, and at that point we were introduced to Jerome. Jerome then became our private guide for all our trips in Cape town and the surrounding areas. Jerome enhanced our trip with his knowledge of South Africa and the history of Cape Town itself. Jerome also suggested places to visit that we would not have discovered without him, including lovely restaurants and wineries.
An incredible four days which we will never forget. Thank you so much.
