Absolutely loved our stay at the Tropicana, it’s a modern hotel in a great location with restaurants cafes and bars all walkable distance. The rooms were clean, had security at the entrance and was very convenient having the juno cafe next door. Only downside was the top floor pool is quite small but there are several pools by the pavilion if you want to go swimming.

Undiscovered gem

I've been to Cape Town dozens of times. We happened to decide to stay here. The beach is superb. The views are great. Food good. Service very good. Not over-priced. Close to the airport. Perhaps the only down-side is that one is a bit far from Cape Town itself, but with access to a car (free parking) there should be no problem.
