We had a wonderful stay at Central Villas in Camps Bay! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Blessing, the property manager, who truly made our experience exceptional. He was incredibly kind, helpful, and went out of his way to accommodate all of our requests, always with a smile and a can do attitude. The villa itself was beautiful and well-located, but it was Blessing’s attentiveness and hospitality that really stood out and made us feel at home. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for comfort, convenience, and excellent service in Camps Bay.
