The location
I did not experience a welcoming feeling There is a very heavy smell coming from pipes in the basement parking and going all the way up to the room. There is no hairdryer in the room and there is no plug point close to any mirror in the room
Very tidy. Well decorated . Friendly staff. Beautiful view.
Too many stairs for the over 60s

The view Assistance by the lady on duty Cleanliness Under cover parking
No one to receive us Front door was blocked with wooden pieces. Could not reach door bell No answer when we phoned for assistance.
Accommodating and friendly staff. Awesome view.
The bed was very wobbly and squeaky.
Had a pleasant weekend always feels like home away from home. The staff is great and the breakfast superb. Always a great time at oceans nest 🥰
Friendly service and comfortable stay.

Not enough bedding
Staff and owner very pleasant
Everything.
Nothing.
There was a problem with the wi-fi the whole time. The other visitors noise was very annoying.
Die Lage ist wunderbar.
Am Tag der Ankunft war für zwei Stunden wegen Umbaumaßnahmen das Wasser abgestellt. Geht gar nicht! Am dritten Tag fiel der Strom aus, wir konnten keine Steckdose nutzen, außerdem fiel der Boiler aus, somit kein warmes Wasser zum Duschen. Außer wegen der nicht funktionierenden Steckdosen wurden wir über die Ausfälle nicht informiert. So geht man mit Gästen nicht um.
Everything
The views are unbeatable, and the staff are super friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious!
Our bed was very squeaky, so if you could just change the base, it would be 100%.
The room with balcony has a beautiful sea view, loved it.
The bed was not sturdy enough
Good value breakfast. Host and staff were friendly and helpful. Beach is accessible by foot.
The hosts were welcoming and exceptionally kind and helpful when had a problem.
Nothing we could think of.
The property is so clean. And in a beautifully breathtaking place.
Nothing
Good view at the pool.
Very musty smell, mould growing on the bathroom tiles and ceiling. Lots of damp. Wifi very poor, hardly ever connected.
The breakfast was great. Rebecca cooked whatever we wanted.
The beds are uncomfortably firm.
Location was good
Limited parking Security a concern as the cleaning staff regularly left our room unlocked
our room the bathroom was terrible. Floor and walls were dirty shower water did not drain out flooded the floor the basin is coming out the wall. The blinds were old and in a neglected state. Pool area also needs work. The staff was amazing!!
the shower needs serious work!
The view
How old and weary the building and rooms looked. Not good value for what we paid. Expected a lot more
I loved the view that the property has. It looks like a postcard… so beautiful!
Personal war sehr freundlich, die Lage ist gut Das Haus ist in die Jahre gekommen
Loved the setting, very nice people, lovely little place with a stunning view.
The location, the stuff was friendly
Overrated and overpriced. You can get much better and cheaper places in that area. Also, the welcome was quite poor as we were only asked if we wanted to book extra breakfast, but otherwise, nothing else was explained. Like how to get after hours or where the car par is etc...
Comfortability and the face fact that we weren’t being bothered at all
They didnt inform me before hand about the room that i picked . I went for my honeymoon thought i was sitting the front room but got one were the view was facing construction for the same price without warning me before hand
Conveniently located
Accommodation in need of an upgrade. Photos on booking.com is outdated. Allot of the advertised items are either not working, broken or not there. My room's aircon was broken and the property made no attempt to have it fixed. Instead I was given a small fan as compensation. Breakfast is not great and not at a standard expected for the price range.
Was cute
Uitzicht, locatie, schone kamer, vriendelijke ontvangst

Everything was great we loved our stay🤗
Oceansnest Guesthouse is idealy situated and provides breathtaking early morning and sunset views of Table Mountain, Table Bay and Robben Island. The guesthouse is within walking distance of a number of swimming beaches and a variety of restaurants and coffee shops, and approximately 30 minutes drive from the V&A Waterfront The management are very hands on and are always available to assist with any enquiries. The communal areas, rooms, and facilities are very well maintained, and always clean. Oceansnest Guesthouse has been added to our list of favorite getaway destinations.
The 2 x parking garages are a bit small and it can be a bit of a tight squeeze to get your vehicle in and out when full

I stayed 3nights, 1st day my room was not cleaned I had to do my own trash and run around asking for toilet paper When they finally came to clean my room, they did not change the sheets

Some repairs needed in shower area. Paint peeling of roof in chunks. And shower takes long before hot water final comes out.
It was clean and staff was friendly
Room was very small and no appliances Just a small refrigerator. No ventilation as there is no balcony with a small window
The location, the VIEW, the bed was really comfortable, easy to find and overall, everything was really lovely and clean with friendly staff!
Fire exit procedure should perhaps be explained. We had three people that could do stairs, just quite slow, perhaps checking that everyone is capable to do all the stairs. There were some parts that just needed some maintenance but hey, we being picky when we writing this. The question is, will we be back, and the answer is YES!
Very friendly staff
The bathroom had mold
Bath tub had no plug and when we asked housekeeping she said she knew about it but wasn't able to fix it
It is exactly where we wanted to be
The unit we thought we were booking, was not. No sea views, and most definitely not an apartment!! The bed was hard as a rock and VERY uncomfortable. The couple is another unit argued - no, SHOUTED - every evening from 9 to 10pm. Lights left on, and no restaurant on the property - so no food at night, and they lock everything up at 9… not a good experience at all!!
Beautiful with awesome views
A lovely place!!! I would have wanted a hairdryer but was ok. The kitchen also needs more equipment. There was no icebucket. There is also very few mirrors. When I used my curling tings, I could not see as the only plug for this was next to the bed with no mirrors in the bedroom. Though the hosts made all this feel not important as their.service level was above and beyond!
It was peaceful and little people traffic. The hosts were very friendly and made you feel at home!!
The view is excellent
Toilet seat is loose and towel rail and toilet roll holder needs replacement. Some maintenance in the bathroom is needed
The views and the great breakfast
We booked a room with a queen sized bed but were given a room with a double bed.
Very friendly staff, reception accommodated our every request. King suite has a Fabulous view of Table Mountain and the sea! Very nice pool with view of Mountain and the sea. Comfy bed, parking and great location.
The sea view and being close to the beach
When we checked in, we werent even directed to our room. We had to find our way. The bedding was dirty. I found a cockroach on the table. I didnt enjoy breakfast, the mushroom wasnt even cooked. Box milk and box juice were served. Oh, not to mention, the Stone hard Bed!! People slaming their doors at night. Thank gudness the aircon blocked out some noise. Parking issue, and stairs
Breakfast was good. Staff were great.
Maintenance was shocking. Terrible smell throughout the building.
Lovely room, good size beautiful view
The bed was very very firm and hard, making it a very uncomfortable sleep.
Great location, friendly staff, great views, a minutes walk to the beach, has a pool, overall great experience
Terrible smell in our room. And in garage
Brilliant location and superb sea view from the pool deck.
Very small room.
Location and view is great. Secure parking.
Some parts of the house are in disuse looking sad, and should be used more creatively. For example the bar area, the pool water feature and the jacuzzi. Breakfast could be served outside by the pool and on the lounge balcony instead of inside.
Oceansnest has a great location at Bloubergstrand with an amazing view of Table Mountain. The large terrace has a small splash pool and plenty different style seating opportunities as well as a braai (bbq) area. The guest house is quiet and there are almost no sounds from tge street. The beach is across the street: A perfect spot for wind or kite surfing. Parking is very secure, in a garage. The staff are friendly and helpful and quite hospitable. Guests are allowed to braai and use the kitchen facilities. A laundry service is available in-house.
The bedroom interior looks aged in places. There is no elevator, so heavy items need to be carried up.

No water .... Host just make it if it was a normal thing ... Service and communication was bad
Location perfect Swimming pool winderful
Parking availability not so great. Luckily we only had one vehicle for 3 families. If we had to arrive in three vehicles two would have slept outside the premises
The pool
They should fix there driveway as it damaged our car bottom front bumper
The view was a winner. Great outdoor braai area for self catering guests. Quite and serene
All good for the room we booked.
Beautiful place, close to the beach. Friendly staff and overall great stay.
Nice location
Beds a bit hard
Location perfect I left too early to have breakfast
There were a couple of hairs on the floor and I could hear the people talking from the other rooms. Their voices carried
This was a lovely and safe place to stay in Blouberg. Right opposite the beach. Great value and a peaceful base for exploring Cape Town. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well looked after, with a relaxed, homely atmosphere. The hosts were welcoming and attentive, and the location is excellent.

The pool nice and clean and facilities
Ein kleines Gästehaus in wunderschöner Lage. Der Blick ist fantastisch. Jederzeit wieder
