Seapoint is a good place to locate yourself in cape town -- grocery stores nearby and a few coffee shops/restaurants, plus the magnificent seapoint promenade. Derek's place was great for us (family of 4) because it has 2 full bathrooms, and a large, airy spacious living area. Security was great, the place was quiet. Our questions were quickly answered, but several things would have helped us out--details, really, but they make all the difference: a little dishwasher soap and/or laundry detergent (hard to travel with our own); a cutting board, some info on the load shedding schedules as those were quite frequent during our stay and disruptive bc everything is electric. It did seem that this was a commercially managed property, which is fine of course, but it meant that we were largely on our own in terms of finding good restaurants or special places to explore nearby. Regular doors for the bathrooms, instead of the creaky folding ones (hard to open without waking your partner!).
