Schalk is an outstanding airbnb host. He is very hospitable, prompt with his replies and went out of his way to make us comfortable. There were a few hot days and we requested an additional fan (there was already 1 fan there), and a second fan magically showed up shortly after the request. The response was just as quick with all other requests as well (such as spare keys). As we were here on a kitesurfing trip, Schalk also made sure we had a drying rack for wetsuits and such without us even asking.
The place was very nice and comfortable. It was clean, water pressure in the shower was great, the kitchen had all the items we needed, wifi good. Car parking inside a gate made us feel very safe wrt the car and the compound was secured with an electrified fence. So we felt completely safe. We had no problems leaving wetsuits and harnesses out in the porch area to dry. I was able to leave my kites and board in the car overnight without worrying about theft and hence we didn't have to worry about packing and unpacking the car every day. At night the place was quiet and there was no noise / disturbance outside which made it easy to get restful sleep after a day on the water.
If you are a kitesurfer and you plan on driving to multiple locations, then this apartment is extremely convenient as it is less than 30 seconds from the main road that leads to the airport, Langebaan, Hermanus, etc. It's a 5 min drive to big bay. The mall with the grocery store is just 5 min away as are restaurants, laundromats, and other stores. The location was pretty ideal for us.
Schalk was also a very nice person to talk to and interact with. We had many conversations about places to see near cape town, our families and upbringings, politics, etc. He was really easy to talk to and at the end the relationship was more friends rather than host-guest (we stayed at his place for 3 weeks). They really went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. We even got to taste some traditional south african desserts!!!
If I were to come back to Cape Town (very likely as the wind is great), then I will for sure pick this place. I would 100% recommend having Schalk as your host and staying at this place to others (unless I'm going to be visiting in which case, back off, I want this place!!!!).
