Last word Beach was simply divine.
The location, approximately halfway between Cape Town and Cape Point was perfectly located for trekking throughout the southern cape. As far as seaside towns go, it’s hard to beat the picturesque Kommetjie; a small but tight-nit community that made us feel totally welcomed.
Regarding the property itself, it was a real treat. Directly on the beach with a stunning upstairs patio and a luxurious pool deck, both overlooking the beach. On the inside, the attention to detail is impeccable, and we felt as though we were living in Coastal Living magazine.
Most importantly however was the service, which was absolutely divine. The entire team from the groundskeeper to the general manager, are extremely passionate about educating upon the best possible guest experience. Everyone knew us by name, consistently asked how they could make our stay better, readily offered recommendations, and were simply a pure delight to be around. We truly felt at home.
For a final point, we highly recommend eating here. Both breakfast and dinner were a beautiful and the food was divine, very fresh high-quality ingredients, and a deep caring from the culinary team, who really let their passion show. Very well fitting with the fantastic overall experience.
As frequent travelers, we find that sometimes 5-star hotels have the luxurious accomadations, but lack on the 5-star service. Last Word Long Beach has absolutely nailed it on both. We cannot wait to return.
