Pod Luxury Stay

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 3 weeks ago
This is one of the best stay’s I have had in South Africa and worldwide. The staff, the bar, the food, the luxurious room and each architectural detail was second to none. The access to world class restaurants are also right on your doorstep. I will most definitely be back soon.

We stayed for 3 nights and were more than satisfied with our Camps Bay hotel selection! Everything was a 10/10. Excellent location, stylish rooms, fantastic breakfast and many little extras that other hotels would charge you for made our stay a wonderful experience. Special thanks to Nick and team for inspirings us on trips and trails around Cape Town. The Lion‘s Head sunrise hike was mindblowing. Would come back anytime again!

Loved our stay at POD. Staff so friendly and our room was spacious, modern and great ocean views. Breakfast was great and close walk to beach. Our flight was delayed at checkout and they were so accommodating and helpful. Will definitely come back.

So as a start I didn't like the location but that is not the hotels fault. It had been such a long time that I have been to South Africa and Cape Town I only used to visit for day trips. As a student I used to like Camps Bay which is nearly 20 ago...

So but the Hotel was nice. Not really big but the rooms had everything you need. The pool was a bit small and not super tempting but that's it.

The one thing my friend and I both noticed was that the staff was super friendly and helpful. So the staff at this place was the best!! At reception and at the bar both super.

So if you would want to stay at camps bay ( super touristy and not even really pretty) I would totally recommend to stay here.

Booked POD last minute on the recommendation of a colleague and we were not disappointed. We booked a suite and a twin pool room for our group and were delighted with the location, the quality of the accommodation and the staff were beyond brilliant. Breakfast was very good with a great choice of quality offerings. The beach is on the doorstep and there are a host of restaurants along the strip. The POD team went out of their way for us, making reservations and recommendations to make our trip as enjoyable as possible. Big shout out to Nick for his superb advice on just about everything in the vicinity.

I would unreservedly recommend a stay in the POD😃

Room tip: Splash out on the suite -101 had superb views and a balcony overlooking the beach.

POD Camps Bay exceeded our expectations for our four night stay. The service was fantastic and the team really took care of our needs. The breakfast was amazing and on days we left early we had breakfasts and coffees ready for us! The location is very walkable to many restaurants and the waterfront!

Room tip: If you plan on using this as home base for CPT exploring the old recommended a rental car, they will park for you, or Ubers!
