What guests think
Across the reviews, Waterfront Village stands out for its walkable V&A Waterfront location, spacious apartments with scenic canal or marina views, and a generally safe, well-kept complex with pools and parking, supported by many friendly, helpful staff.
Several guests, however, struggled to find reception, reported ambiguous directions and lengthy check-in, and noted communication issues. Room quality can vary by unit, with occasional maintenance or comfort complaints and a few housekeeping inconsistencies. Overall, expect spacious self-catering apartments in a prime, secure setting with some operational hiccups.

They really need to sort out their check in process- very ambiguous building not clear to find . However, once we explained we had limited time as returning our car they did help us. Apartment was spacious, great to have a washing machine and driver . Felt very safe here . It is the only place I felt comfortable running on my own during our stay in South Africa. The resort is in a gated apartment complex and it is easy to run 1 mile loop around the edges. Easy access to v & a waterfront which was very safe . I would recommend staying here as base . Great choice of pools - compared to any where we stayed in western cape . They keep the gardens and pools exceptionally clean and maintained. The apartment is fully serviced and we had somebody that came in each day and did the washing up and made the bed which was surprising as normally in an apartment you have entry and exit clean was a nice touch

Beautiful location, very well maintained grounds and apartment itself was in great condition with everything needed. The only gripe was that Hotels.com directions take you to the MindPearl building which used to house the admin, on the other side of the complex. Having asked a security guard where we were supposed to go, we drove round and got into the complex but were then left with a bit of a struggle to find reception. Once there everything was good! The short walk into the V&A along the water was lovely and there are great views wherever you look.

Spotless apartment overlooking the marina. Short walk to V&A shops and the countless outstanding restaurants. Excellent location. Check-in after 3pm might be a bit challenging so get written directions in advance so your taxi can go to the right location for you to check-in 24/7. Very friendly everywhere.

The experience was quite disappointing. We had to switch apartments because the safe was inoperable, the sliding door wouldn’t lock, and the hair dryer was faulty. We moved to a better apartment that we liked; however, we were disappointed that the bed sheets were not changed at all during our entire 5-night stay.

The property had stunning views from the back deck. The apartment itself was very clean, spacious and had all the facilities we required except the coffee machine did not have any pods provided which was a bit disappointing. We couldn't open the directions link to the property and therefore found the property exceptionally difficult to find. We recommend you putting the directions in text inside the original email rather than a link. We also found the check-in process exceptionally lengthy and disjointed. We understand the need for the security but believe if the staff were better trained, it would have taken 10 minutes instead of 45. After a long trip from Australia and difficulty find the property, a lengthy check in process was frustrating and unnecessary. Everything else was lovely, particularly the cleanliness of the property and surrounds including the beautiful canal.

The location, options for food, shopping, mall entertainment, and accessibility to transportation was wonderful. The marina area was a great place to stay.

Just disappointed of the power outages as frequently happens not on regular hours! It was so challenging getting ready for work in the morning in darkness and coming home at night to cook for dinner…no power! I wished the admin told me about the times! The bathroom although clean, was mouldy on the walls and ceiling and around the tub. The cleaners and guards were outstanding though.

The property is a self catering property in the popular V&A district in a beautiful estate. It’s a pity the unit I stayed in had a lot of delayed maintenance, no comfortable seating. Appliances (TVs & refrigerator) need attention, bathroom extractor fan not working. The pictures on the platform are not a good reflection of the unit assigned. I would suggest that exact pictures of the unit booked be shown on the platform to about bait and switching to clients. I booked a room with a comfortable sectional in the couch and got an apartment with an old uncomfortable couch. I requested a room change , but was not reallocated to a better unit.

The property itself is beautiful, especially along the canal. However, we found the location and reception very hard to find, as did several Ubers that we tried to call. This made things challenging as we did not want to walk alone at night and needed pickup. Also, there were some cleanliness complaints with our unit, although management was responsive.

We really enjoyed this flat. We were in Cape Town for a week so to have a kitchen and washer and dryer was wonderful. The location was fantastic. We had great views of the canal and a private patio to sit on. I would stay here again. The only complaint we had was it was hot and there was no air. We asked for a fan but one was never brought.

We booked a standard 2 bed apartment as that was all that was available. There was air conditioning in both bedrooms and lounge, function kitchen, washing machine and tumble drier. The second bedroom was small, just one bedside table, en-suite had no shower, bed small. It was ok, but missed things to make it comfortable, cushions, rugs etc. the cleaners were very good and all the staff friendly, felt very safe. Would stay in area again but book lawhill apartments, they looked much nicer.

Great choice of pools - compared to any where we stayed in western cape . They keep the gardens and pools exceptionally clean and maintained.

I loved everything about my stay at Waterfront Village. The staff was exceptional. I felt completely safe in and around the complex. The setting was gorgeous. My accommodations were beautiful and more complete than any hotel.

Location
Prime spot by the V&A Waterfront with easy walking to shops, restaurants, and transport, plus scenic water and Table Mountain views. However, many struggled to find the complex or reception and said directions were unclear.

Spotless apartment overlooking the marina. Short walk to V&A shops and the countless outstanding restaurants. Excellent location. Check-in after 3pm might be a bit challenging so get written directions in advance so your taxi can go to the right location for you to check-in 24/7. Very friendly everywhere.

The property had stunning views from the back deck. The apartment itself was very clean, spacious and had all the facilities we required except the coffee machine did not have any pods provided which was a bit disappointing. We couldn't open the directions link to the property and therefore found the property exceptionally difficult to find. We recommend you putting the directions in text inside the original email rather than a link. We also found the check-in process exceptionally lengthy and disjointed. We understand the need for the security but believe if the staff were better trained, it would have taken 10 minutes instead of 45. After a long trip from Australia and difficulty find the property, a lengthy check in process was frustrating and unnecessary. Everything else was lovely, particularly the cleanliness of the property and surrounds including the beautiful canal.

My husband and I traveled with friends. We liked the spacious accommodations. The one bedroom unit was cleaned daily and had all of the conveniences of home. The location, options for food, shopping, mall entertainment, and accessibility to transportation was wonderful. The marina area was a great place to stay.

Most amazing location with views of the canal, table Mountain or the V&A waterfront. This is the best location in Cape Town. You are seconds away from shops, restaurants and the Mail tourist attractions are all accessible from this location.

Beautiful location, very well maintained grounds and apartment itself was in great condition with everything needed. The only gripe was that Hotels.com directions take you to the MindPearl building which used to house the admin, on the other side of the complex. Having asked a security guard where we were supposed to go, we drove round and got into the complex but were then left with a bit of a struggle to find reception. Once there everything was good! The short walk into the V&A along the water was lovely and there are great views wherever you look.

The property was lovely. The only downside was that it was a challenge to find, as it is not clearly marked. It took a long time to find.

This is a very beautiful property within walking distance to the waterfront. It is very safe and it’s almost a park like environment. I would definitely stay again and highly recommend it to friends and family.

Great place to stay, close to shops and restaurants. Very well managed site, immaculately kept. Serviced daily with a well equipped kitchen. Things that could be improved - on booking it would be good to know which apartment block you are in, rather than just being able To select how many bedrooms etc. Aldo, what to expect when you check in e.g. that you follow them on a mini bus up to your apartment. But overall, a very pleasant stay. Thank you

Beautiful location with views of the canal and harbor. Apartment was clean and well accessorized. There was only one face towel for two people and we couldn’t get another. The kitchen is fully equipped but they don’t supply napkins or paper towels. The info manual in the apartment was from 2018 and not up to date. I had to call to get the WiFi code.
