I really hit the Airbnb jackpot with Ash’s home! Let’s just say I’m sad heading to my next vacation spot (a beach paradise) because I’m going to miss my new Cape Town family so much!
First the home...it’s a beautifully renovated historical Victorian house that is historical, modern and cozy. The garden is a paradise with lush trees and a koi pond, perfect for a meditative morning or an evening glass of wine on the veranda. The decor, art and furniture all add depth and warmth to the property. The bedroom is spacious and the en-suite bathroom is classy and modern.
Now for the best part, the hosts...Ash and Steve are out-of-their-way hospitable and warm! They are super social and welcomed me in joining them for a glass of wine on a few occasions and introduced me to their friends. We talked about our travels, work, cultures and everything in between. Their open and warm hearts bring instant comfort and ease.
Location is central to all of Cape Town’s attractions...less than 10 mins Uber ride to town or to the beaches. Ash let me check in a bit early because my flight landed early in the morning. Highly recommend this incredible home for anyone (especially solo travelers!) looking for a warm and welcoming environment to call home for a few days.
