jo's place is in the perfect location; just off of kloof street where all the cafes and restaurants are but also at the gateway to the mountain hikes and incredible beaches. i walked up lion's head directly from her front door. the most beautiful evening sunset hikes in the world are just a few minutes away from your front door. the terrace has an outrageous view of the mountains, the neighbourhood feels 100% safe, the house has a vintage charm and the room is super private and cozy. jo is warm and welcoming and full of critical local tips. i stayed for five weeks and it felt like a second home to me. i'll 100% book this place again, you cannot get better value and location in cape town.
