Staying at Elize's place was a perfect way to spend my time Cape Town! The apartment is just as pictured. Plenty of room, nice and bright and great little patio out front. I was there for over a month, and it had everything I needed for a stay of that length. Cooking utensils, clothes washer, etc. It really felt like a home. Elize and Mike are awesome hosts. In addition to keeping the apartment in great shape, communication was easy and they answered any questions I had about the area - places to go, things to do. Even helped me find a place to get my suitcase repaired.
About the area:
The Camps Bay area is beautiful. Mountains behind you, the sea in front of you. I never got tired of the view as I walked into town to go grocery shopping or to the main beach. You would think you might get tired of seeing beautiful sunsets every day, but you won't :)
I used Uber to get around to different parts of the city with no problem. A one way ride to Hout Bay was about $R110. Getting into the main downtown area was about a $R70 trip one way depending on the time of day. There's also a city bus that stops near the house that you can use to get around once you buy a MyCiti card.
There is a main strip area along the Camps Bay beach where there are restaurants and some bars. It's a pretty tourist type area, so things are priced accordingly. There's a place called Dizzy's where I found myself pretty regularly that has great pizza and sports and live music on the weekends. More locals tend to go there as it's off the main strip. I even used UberEats to have a pizza delivered to the house one night.
The main party/nightlife area in Cape Town can be found downtown (the CBD area) around Long Street, so if that's your scene, then you'll be taking advantage of Uber to get there from Camps Bay.
One peculiarity of Camps Bay that I wasn't aware of when I first arrived is that they don't sell alcohol in the grocery stores, and there are no bottle shops in town either. So if you want to buy some beer, liquor, or bottles of wine to have at the house, you will need to go up the road to Seapoint.
So in summary - I would definitely recommend Elize's place and would definitely stay here again. Beautiful place, beautiful people!
