“It’s was perfection beyond expectation.”
LikedThere is an expectation but this place is on a whole different level
DislikedThe attention to detail is amazing, the care the staff showed us and the constant surprised with extras made us feel so special.
“An Unforgettable Honeymoon Experience!”
LikedMount Nelson exceeded all our expectations. The hospitality was exceptional from start to finish. We deeply appreciated the seamless airport and safari transfers, and the beautiful honeymoon suite preparation made us feel so special. The Afternoon Tea was unforgettable — special thanks to Nawal for her wonderful hospitality. The breakfast was amazing, and the attention to detail was outstanding throughout. A heartfelt thank you to Mr. Mikael and the entire Guest Experience team, who took care of every single detail, and to the Concierge team who helped us explore the beauty of Cape Town. Honestly — visiting Cape Town is something, but staying at Mount Nelson is something else entirely. A truly magical honeymoon we'll cherish forever. Highly recommended! 🌸💕
