This is a little gem situated just a short walk away from a beautiful beach. As it is located on the Baz bus route I expected your standard basic backpackers place but this was so much more. We stayed in a spotless double ensuite room with a shared kitchen and living room area for a bargain R300. The atmosphere is... More

The staff are amazing, really relaxed and friendly. We stayed in a large double room in a two bedroom apartment which was clean and functional. The beach is only a few steps away and the supermarket is just around the corner. They also have lots of BBQs. It is also super close to the surf beach.

In 2010, I was at Cristal Cove for the first time. Planned to stay two nights, ended up staying nearly a week. It‘s beautifully situated with the beach in the backyard, shops & restaurants within walking distance. The guesthouse is family-run and you can definitely feel that personal touch. The Yosh family and their staff are very welcoming, super friendly... More

This is the second time we have been fortunate enough to stay here and it just gets better. This is without a doubt the best place we have ever stayed. Gary, Cristal and Dave (the family who run it) are the most friendly and lovely people you will meet. Its like staying with your cool Aunt and Uncle. The rooms... More

The staff is very helpful and nice, the rooms are huge, clean and nicely decorated.The ensuite bathroom was great and also clean. Futhermore we also got an own kitchen and living room which we had to share with only another double room. The kitchen... More

A nice backpakers, close to the best surfing beach in the Cape (apparently) but a little way out of town centre. We shared a kitchen with just one other room. Decent bar (Grand Prix) and shops nearby. Could have been better if there were towels in the room and less mould in the shower. But cheap - so can't complain

Awesome place to stay close to everything, great small town with all the services and plenty of things to do! Only stayed for two nights, which just doesn't cut it; have to get back! :D
