My stay at the Camps Bay Forest Pods was lovely, marked by really good service and fine views. The warmth of the staff combined with the beautiful gardens really enhanced my experience. However, the location required some mobility to navigate the steps to the pods, which could be a challenge for some. Overall, a good getaway that I would love to revisit.

My stay was a mix of highs and lows at the Camps Bay Forest Pods. While the breakfast was absolutely delicious and the staff were mostly accommodating, I faced some issues with the initial room and misleading representations. After some back and forth, I ended up in a better room in the main villa, which made my experience much better overall.
