i have enjoyed my stay at blue water, mostly the breakfast was good but i was dissapointed about their supper buffet they has little varierty of dishes. PLEASE will you improve your supper buffet

Perfect for children. It is very busy but there is an incredible selection of fish there. I am not a fish fan and only went there as there is not much to do in Cape Town when it is cloudy and wet. But it was a nice way to spend a couple of hours. There are some really huge fish tanks, and some very unusual creatures (spider crabs? Scary.). Most of the fish are examples of what is found in the waters near Cape Town. Tip - go to the Aquarium before you do the bus tour as the Aquarium ticket will give you a discount on the bus. We only found that out too late....

Great review! Sounds like you could spend weeks here and not get bored. Would love to go to south africa, but am put off by the high levels of crime. I'm sure its like all countries, where most crime is concentrated in the bigger cities, so there's bound to be plenty of safe places to visit. by toepunt10

Thank you for your review. As this is a place that you know well and I do not, I would have liked some more detailed information. I will re-rate if you add to your review. This does sound a lovely place. Thanks. J. by headcase44

The review is on the hotel I believe, not Cape Town. Cheers by greatmum1

Cape town is a place i have always wanted to visit and it sounds great. Sorry for the low rating i just feel that if your are describing a place then it needs to be in a lot more detail. If you decided to edit it then let me know and i would be more than happy to come back and re-rate it. by interscope123

I got a bus from Jo'burg to here in 1998, but stayed at the Game Reserve about ten minutes away so was only in the place quite briefly. by helencbradshaw

This resort sounds perhaps a little expensive to me, although rather impressive I must admit. VH from me. I particularly liked the way you melded your opinions and your descriptions to make it more readable. If you wanted to improve your review, you might consider adding more information and extending that which you have. Is the resort "couple friendly"? Where is it exactly? Where there any particularly good features? Could I get any more information on the Crocodile Sanctuary? :> by dragonhelmuk
