If you are looking for somewhere that will blow your mind and fit all your needs then you are looking at the right place! I am not sure that my review can do justice.
The communication from the owners, Marcel and Shadiya, to the managers, Leigh and her daughter Kiara, was absolutely impeccable, they were constantly communicating and checking in, before, during and after our stay. Having said that, the communication was in no way intrusive or demanding.
Finding the accommodation was easy with our navigation and we drove directly up to the house. From there it was perfect from beginning to end.
We were provided with 2 garages, though these were both to small for our 9 seater, if we had a smaller car they would have been perfect. The house was staggered up the hill in Fischhoek, which provided amazing views of the beach, sunrise in the morning and the mountains on the opposite side. Absolutely stunning. The pool outside was well maintained and the views were the same as before mentioned, though it was not the right season for us to swim, were able to use the terrace and enjoy the same. The house itself offered 4 full bedrooms, with amazingly comfortable beds. Each room offered an en-suite bathroom besides one which was in the near and was also used as the joint bathroom for all in the house. Each bathroom was large, offering more than enough space to bath, shower, store luggage etc. 2 bathrooms had baths included which offered enough space to have a nice relaxing bath either alone or as a couple.
Upon arrival we were greeted and shown around, explained how the house operated and what we were able to do. We were also provided a very nice welcome gift from the hosts. The wifi was easy to use and was more than acceptable. The Kitchen came fully kitted for your needs and offered the important Gas/electric appliances in case of Load shedding. In the (side Kitchen) were the washing machine and dryer for doing the washing.
We were situated around 5 minutes from either the Spar (in the living area) or Pick and Pay (on the main road) for all our daily needs and groceries.
The Main Street also offered restaurants and other shopping experiences depending on what you are looking for. The beach is a very beautiful beach, though not the typical long rolling beaches of South Africa, there is more than enough for everyone.
We were out everyday for actives, Fishhook allows for easy access to all the cool places that Capetowm has to offer.
Cape of Goodhope, Boulders Beach (for the penguins) is directly in the near. Boulders beach was 6km away and easily found. Cape of Goodhope was directly on the same road and offered some every beautiful views along the drive, even if you do not go into the sanctuary, it is well worth the drive around.
For Cape Town, Table Mountain etc, it is fairly easy to get to. It does take around 30 mins to drive into Capetown but considering the serenity of the accommodation, the drive was easy and well worth it. To Stellenbosch for the Wine enthusiasts, it is around 45 mins to arrive, definitely well worth the drive and experience.
All is all the accommodation, assistance and experience more than surpassed our expectations and we hope that anyone choosing to stay here has as great a time as we did.
