First, the home: it is one of Cape Town's gems. Brilliant location, in a great neighborhood, with gorgeous views, and close to all amenities. The rooms are comfy and spacious, everything is beautifully appointed, and you have great pool and garden areas for relaxing outside.
But the real reason to stay here is Joe and Bernice. These are special people. Their warmth and hospitality is boundless. They are so genuine and caring they immediately treat you like family. I spent hours drinking coffee and chatting with them, and it was as if I was enjoying the company of my parents back home. Even if the house wasn't awesome (which, believe me, it is!), I would return in a heartbeat just to visit them!
