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!

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.

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!

Felt like Home!

The location of POD is amazing, it’s located seconds from the beach and restaurants and bars of Camps Bay. The service at the hotel is second to none. Thanks to Sean, Nick and the team for the personal touch, restaurant and activity recommendations. A great spot which i hope to visit again.
