Overall Ratings & Reviews Residence Vive La Vie

All the rooms are different but all are good-sized. Our room has double bathroom sinks, a large shower, a chaise lounge in addition to two armchairs. Very comfy. The breakfasts are excellent! Their so-called mini-continental is big enough to fill up most people: fresh baked muffin, croissant, fresh fruit, cheeses& meats, yogurt, juice, coffee. But you can also add eggs Benedict, omelette, shashuska, French toast— all included! We were in the winter but I can see how nice it’d be to enjoy their pool and gardens in the summer. Highly recommend.

More of a lovely boutique hotel than a B&B. Overall superb!

Incredible stay at this gorgeous hotel. Beautiful decor, excellent service. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Absolutely wonderful stay and wish we had stayed longer. Brilliant and comfortable room; lounge areas were pleasant to relax in. Annalize and co were attentive, helpful and very welcoming. I'd definitely stay again.

We had a fantastic stay at Residence Vive La Vie. We were warmly greeted upon our early arrival and were very happy that they were able to have our room ready (after a very long flight). Our cottage was spacious and well appointed, and the bed was very comfortable. Location is about a 15 minute walk to the center of town, very convenient. The breakfast was phenomenal, fresh cut fruit and made to order dishes prepared by some talented chefs every day. Highly recommend!

Beautiful property and very close to the wine tram. 15 minute walk to Main Street but easy to get taxis at a very reasonable price. I would definitely recommend this place to stay in franschhoek.

We had an amazing stay here. The place.is lovely and the staff were brilliant. It was so comfortable! We had spent the day on the wine tram, which was lovely. The room was exceptional - it was so comfortable and generously sized. The breakfast was delicious and service great. Would definitely return if we go back to the area.

Friendly and welcoming, fantastic breakfast!

A perfect , charming place . Anne Lise was an amazing hostess . We felt really well taken care of !

This was the perfect place to stay for a solo getaway. The room was comfortable and the service was outstanding. The convenient location is a bonus. I would definitely recommend a visit

Excellent service by host. Parking available for a car or 2. Room clean and comfortable however was very cold. This ruined my stay. Needed extra heater. Used aircon to get some warmth. Shower was good. Main disappointment was not refunded for part of stay as had to leave 2 days early.

Second time here and loved it even more. Staff are excellent and will definitely go back!

A great find in Franschoek , the staff were the best, friendly and helpful and the rooms are stunning.

Very well maintained property with only a few rims so not crowded at all
