“Perfect, we’ll be coming back.”
Honestly, there aren’t enough words to describe how amazing it was. Everything was marvellous – from the warm welcome to the spotless rooms. The breakfast was outstanding too: fresh, delicious, and made with so much care. We felt completely at home. 10/10, we’d come back in a heartbeat.

“We would go again to Diamond House & recommend it to whom we meet if thinking of visiting CT in SA.”
In General: First of all compliments to Cheslin and his willing staff, who through and by Cheslin made our stay so enjoyable as they could not do enough to please us. The view from our room had a balcony was exceptional looking out across Camps Bay with colourful sunsets even when it was overcast, the sky would be lit up. Breakfast: A good choice of breakfast, providing English or Continental. Food choices were different each day and fresh fruit to eat or take out for the day. Room: The room we had was very pleasing as already said, we had the provision of the balcony and two wicker chairs, which perhaps required updating. The bathroom and shower area was big and between the bedroom and bathroom a changing area with a spacious wardrobe and cupboard. Extra hangers were supplied when asked.

“It’s a special place in a spectacular location with a beautiful team looking after you”
Location is spectacular and just a very short drive to Camps Bay promenade. Also only a 20 min drive to Cape Town Accommodation was clean comfortable with everything we needed. However I have to give a special and huge thank you to the team and owners who looked after me so so well when my husband was taken ill. I cannot thank you enough for your care and consideration. Nothing was too much and I will never forget your kindness
