We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Bay Breeze. Miss Becky was so hospitable, I wanted to stay forever! Our room was very comfortable and they even accommodated our son's phone request to surprise us with a nice bottle of wine on arrival in our room. We enjoyed the wine on their wonderful huge covered pier over Mobile Bay. We... More

When asking the way to the b&b. Locals made us aware that Harbour Heights was not a secure area. There were constant police patrols and private security. It is mainly accessible by road walking is not recommended. We made a booking after looking it up on trip advisor. We decided to try and cancel booking.Unfortuately we only learned about the... More

Bay Breeze is just fantastic. Marlies, the owner, is just great, and has left no detail out... The rooms are very beautifully decorated, gorgeous views, a fantastic ambience/vibe and comfortable big beds. We stayed in the Honeymoon suite, which comes with an enormous corner bath, and a wooden deck. The staff at Bay Breeze are wonderful, and incredibly willing and... More

Owner and her crew top notch, the rooms are beautiful with full balcony overlooking the bay. I'm not a fan of B&B's or Guesthouses but this one I would stay in again. Complete breakfast cooked to your prefrence and drinks available both in the kitchen/ lounge area and in the room. The only drawback for me is the owner's cats... More

This was the best accommodation we experienced in South Africa. Our rooms were spectacularly clean and well-furnished. Marlise made us feel at home every day. The breakfasts were wonderful and we enjoyed sitting on the deck enjoying the view each morning. Marlise provided great recommendations for local restaurants, beaches, and other points of interest. We would return to this property... More

This B&B is all it claims to be, and I enjoyed my stay. However, access to the property demands a hire car for convenience and safety. It is very high up on Sentinel Hill and has a large shanty town surrounding it. Lawless behaviour is commonplace. The fish meal processing plant at the base of the hill produces an unpleasant...

The location is ideal as it is a... More

Wonderful! Before leaving Sweden we had booked 4 nights at Bay Breeze Hotel and 6 nights in another hotel. But guess what? We ended up staying our entire holiday at Bay Breeze, in total 10 nights. Why? Because we simply loved ths place. Fresh, relaxed, tastefully designed rooms and very valuble tourist avdvices. Add the owners warm hospitality and you... More

This is a fantastic small hotel in a great location if you're wishing to be just outside the centre of Cape Town, but still close enough to explore the Cape Town itself, Camps Bay and the surrounding areas. The hosts Ian and Marlies and the guys working at the hotel, Alex and Colin are incredibly friendly and helpful. Especially when... More
