What a treat it was to stay at POD. Every staff member was a joy to be around. When we came in from our activities we would come into the living room, getting snacks and drinks- it was like an extension of home. Breakfast was excellent every morning! Can't say enough good things!

The POD is wonderful - the view is really lovely overlooking the ocean. Staff is delightful (they are willing to help with any request and go above and beyond) and the location is great - walkable to many nice restaurants and convenient to the city. High recommend!

Fantastic boutique hotel and first class staff
A short stay at the start of a longer visit to SA. The POD hotel is in a fantastic location and a great set-up. Perfect for a chilled break. What made the stay was the incredible staff who could not have been more friendly, helpful and engaged.

Although the property is very attractive and stylish, the most exceptional part of our stay was the incredible staff and service. The genuinely friendly, highly personalized service and thoughtful offerings put most 5-star hotels to shame.

Special boutique hotel
Was a very special boutique hotel, the staff were incredibly friendly and couldn’t do enough for us - nothing was a problem
This place is a little gem in the quieter part of Camps Bay so the noise isn’t so much.

Beautiful little boutique hotel in Camps Bay. It is a very short walk to the beach. The pool area is small but very nice with views of the ocean. The room was very clean and well appointed.

POD Camps Bay is nice slice of luxury just off the beaten path. The area is very alive with things to do, shops and restaurants of all types. The property sits just across the street from the beach. The staff are very accommodating and go out of their way to make sure that your stay is magnificent. Our reservation included breakfast which was a nice touch. We will definitely be back!

These guys are stellar! Above and beyond. Highly recommend this hotel and the staff are super attentive to every detail and even out a hot water bottle in a cozy crochet sack under your sheets for a bit more warmth on those Cape Town seaside nights!

I wouldn’t think twice about coming back here. The staff are a real credit to South Africa. The hotel was modern and slick, with one of the best sunsets you could ask for. Breakfast was great, especially with the peaceful sound of the Atlantic ocean.

The best! Hotel that has EVERYTHING and more
OH MY! I don't really have words for this hotel. I stayed here to have a place to work peacefully and also have a good place to have my meetings. The POD exceeded all my expectations, mostly because of the AMAZING staff, I have never experienced staff this service minded before. It really felt like a new home...
The entire property is extremely clean, and a design I really enjoy.
After work you can enjoy the best sunset in Cape Town, its absolutely stunning and this place is just a hidden gem!
I cannot recommend this place more than I do, if you are in the region do not hesitate to stay there!
Thank you for everything THE POD!
