Dorette’s home
Is a wonderful spot which is well situated in the city. It’s a walk away from many excellent tourist spots in Cape Town and right at the foot of the wonder that is Table mountain.
My family and I had a wonderful stay- 2 small children, 1 a baby and 2 adults. It is a bit of a squeeze but with 2 large beds and a cosy living space it was fine. The apartment is situated 2 minutes walk from a lovely park with a restaurant attached to it too. October through to December / Jan can be exceptionally windy and this should be noted. Also, in a time like COVID and lock downs, it felt a little claustrophobic to be in a lower ground floor apartment - with the wind and a small courtyard it felt a little like being in a wind storm most days. So I would note that if traveling with small children and during lock down.
However, the apartment is absolutely beautiful and very sweetly decorated. I appreciated the two bathrooms and the decadent bath which is a real treat. Bedding and other small touches are thoughtful and pleasant to come home to. Dorette’s place is exceptionally clean and neat. It was maintained by a lovely woman and this made the experience even better. Dorette herself is an incredible host who I can say I was incredibly kind, generous and warm- she had the dishwasher collected when it gave us some issues, she personally came to replace a filter for the kitchen tap and offered me the option to make a final decision on when something unexpected came along during our stay. All in all we had a great time and would
Highly recommend Dorette’s home.
