We are health care workers and were looking to protect our family’s during lockdown in the peak of the pandemic and Mila opened up her home and heart to us. She is an exceptional host. Not only did she provide the necessary essentials but also went out of her way by providing ample cleaning products sanitizer and masks (exquisite handmade cloth masks by her NGO) during this special time, there was enough wood for the fire place and braai and even electric blankets to keep us warm in the winter and she made sure we were prepared for load shedding. The house is so beautiful and spacious and she has equipped it with all essentials and luxury items. She went out of her way to make us feel safe and secure. The house has an extensive security system.
We had a home away from home during this difficult time and it gave us piece of mind that our families were safe. The house is in a beautiful quiet neighborhood, but very central in the Newlands community and close to many shops. It is a stunning home with lovely indoor and outdoor living spaces perfect for relaxing and unwinding. It has an old time charm but with modern finishes.
Mila is a warm, kind and very helpful host and was a true blessing during our stay at Casa Mila.
