The Marvel Beach House

I like everything about the place, amazing host and chef. Breathtaking views the list is endless had a great time with my mom 😊

Location

I guess the staff could only hang around when they need to do a specific task and then leave the property to the guests to enjoy. I did not get the sense that was observed

Everything about the property. The views are out of this world. The staff, oh my gosh, they make you feel special. They serve you 24/7, forever asking if you are okay, comfortable, undivided attention. They serve you like you are the only guests. Just everything we needed. No need to leave the property.

Nothing

Unrivalled view, nicely furnished, good location

Beds were very hard with waterproof sheets fitted. With no air con, i can see why... you literally stick to the sheets. Others comments about leaking showers still not rectified, water all over bathroom floor as shower door doesnt close. Black mould and cracked tiles in shower. Despite Cape Town's water issues, it takes 5+ mins for any warm water to reach the shower. No TV in room, no hair dryer in room however one was supplied when asked, albeit a travel sized hair dryer. No air con - at this price point it should be included. This place is crying out for maintenance and investment. If the view is all you care about its a 10 out of 10, the problem is it doesnt do the basics else particularly well. Breakfast was disappointing, had some toast but had to ask for jam/marmalade. Coffee was dreadful. There's something odd about this place, staff are distant, things like they keep drinks under lock and key, budget hairdryers kept behind closed doors, cracked window, loose floor tiles, stains on the bed linen.... it all just seems more budget than luxurious and i guess while people continue to book, nothing will change. You're paying a massive premium for the view, which is an amazing view, but it doesnt justify the price.
