Welcoming, comfortable, priced perfectly, warm and fuzzy.

Elias, (accomodation director) is a brilliant host and immediatly makes you feel welcome. At Villa Garda is central to Cape Town city and surrounds.

Website to explain more clearly about self-catering situation.

Kamer was netjies. Self-catering was communal and located inside main house. Unable to use towels due to bad odour. Breakfast menu very limited and the same daily. WiFi too weak for video/conference calls.

Very unpleasant experience.

I had a very unpleasant stay. The accommodation was not what we expected. The host seemed unprepared for guests. The establishment was untidy, the room was small, and noise from the cars driving up and down the main road could be heard during the night. Additionally, there was no drinking water in the bedroom for my daughter and me to use. Overall, it was a very unpleasant experience for us.

Room clean, bed comfortable, breakfast good and staff friendly and helpful, especially Elias.

As above but especially the fact that there is safe off-road parking.

The pocket fitting room was not worth the price.

Room is small and only suitable for sleeping. Damp seeping through left marks on the wall. No drinking glasses in room or outside kitchenette. No ventilation in room unless the bathroom window and blinds are opened directly at the front door, which then leaves no privacy.

Buitensporige prys.

Vir die prys sou ek minstens DSTV-premium en 'n yskas verwag. 'n Gesamentlike yskas en sitkamer is nie aanvaarbaar teen hierdie prys nie. Die hoë trappe na die boonste vloer was feitlik ontoeganklik vir ons bejaardes. Ons was nie bewus dat daar boonste kamers is nie en dat ons vooraf moes versoek vir 'n kamer op grondvloer nie. Die kamer, badkamer en beddegoed was skoon en netjies. Die personeel is vriendelik en behulpsaam.

Excessive price.

For the price I would expect at least DSTV premium and a fridge. A shared fridge and living room is not acceptable at this price. The high stairs to the upper floor were practically inaccessible to us elderly people. We were not aware that there were upper rooms and that we had to request in advance for a room on the ground floor. The room, bathroom and bedding were clean and tidy. The staff are friendly and helpful.

Netjiese, bekostigbare verblyf

Baie netjiese verblyf, vriendelike personeel, warm ontbyt word oor 'n naweek egter eers vanaf 07:30 bedien, wat dit onmoontlik maak wanneer mens vroeg moet uit vir 'n voldag konferensie. Self-help ontbytkosse en koffie was wel beskikbaar vanaf 7 uur. Die verblyf sal goed werk vir 'n familiegroep, private kamers, maar groot gemeenskaplike areas waar almal kan saam kuier.

Neat, affordable accommodation

Very neat, friendly staff. Although, warm breakfast only served at 07:30 which makes it impossible when you have to attend a full-day conference. Self-service cereals and coffee were still available from 07:00. The accommodation will be ideal for families, private rooms but spacious communal areas where everyone can mingle.

Villa Garda is nommer pas vir my behoeftes.

Die kamers is ruim, skoon, gerieflik en baie mooi. Diens is besonder goed en die ontbyt baie lekker. Werklik 'n baie spesiale B&B teen 'n sakpasprys!

Stayed only 1 night - 4 adults - found the staff very friendly and accommodating.

When I'm in Cape Town again, this B&B will be my accommodation, make no mistake.

We will be back!

We booked into Villa Garda as it is close to the Two Oceans start and finish. We were welcomed by friendly staff and owner. Our room was neat, clean and felt homely. We had an amazing weekend at this place. Thank you and we will be back in 2016!
