We stayed in the Crystal apartments for three nights, with our one year old son. We booked a studio apartment, but we're lucky enough to be upgraded to a bigger (one bed) apartment, as we were there off season. The apartment was huge with a bedroom, walk in closet, large bathroom with bath and shower, great kitchen and separate scullery... More

My wife and I had a studio apartment whilst over for short trip for a wedding. Spotlessly clean, great modern decor and facilities with wonderful views over the bay. We used the shuttle down to The Bay Hotel extensively and saved us a lot of taxi fares. We arrived late in the evening after a day flight and the reception... More

We stayed 5 nights in a very nice appartment on the second floor. The building and the appartments are quite new and in very good shape. The view from the balcony was amazing! For a family with a grown up child it was the perfect location to stay.

This is a good location, 1.3km from the beach. Quality apartments with quality furnishings. Good pools 1x cold & 1x warm, decent size. Easy, downhill walk to the beachfront. Ideal to hire a car to explore The Cape, free allocated secure space. Well sought and looked after. Never really worry about security around this neck of the woods.

We have just got back from two weeks in South Aftrica staying in the Cape Town district all the time. We spent the last five nights at The Crystal. We were gobsmacked when we saw our apartment. Although only one bedroom, it was huge and spotless with the most wonderful views. Only a few yards from a lovely long swimming... More

These are very high quality apartments in a quiet residential location but only a few minutes walk down the hill to the heart of Camps Bay and close to Table Mountain. We stayed in a sizeable 1 bed apartment on the ground floor with a handy outside dining area and great views from every window of either the bay, Lions... More

We stayed at the Crystal for 6 nights in early February, having a 1-bedroom-plus-mezzanine room on the top floor. The location is good for both Cape Town and the Cape peninsula. The position guarantees breathtaking views over Camps Bay to the sea, with Lion's Head to the right and the Apostles to the left. The swimming pools are small but... More

My husband and I spent 2 weeks here in this amazing location. Even at the end of the 2 weeks, we were still open-mouthed at the luxuriousness of the whole place! The apartment was stunning with the most amazing views - front and back! It was beautifully and tastefully furnished. My one little niggle was that I thought the bed... More
