Let me begin by saying that we don’t normally book private rooms as in the past we have had some interesting hosts. This is not the case with Etienne, the room is located in a separate “wing” of the home with your own bathroom and sliding glass door to the garden and patio. There is a dividing door from you and the rest of the home and you do not feel like you are confined to only your room. Etienne and his wife Irina are amazing people and you have as much contact or as little contact as you would like. They are both so warm and welcoming that it feels like you are staying with friends. We were there during the winter and the weather was a bit cold so we didn’t have the pleasure of sitting out on the patio but this would be a major plus during the upcoming summer months. Not only is your room and bathroom spotless but the rest of the home is very clean with a wonderful comfortable contemporary feel. For those that kite board this is a perfect location. The beach is walking distance away with Bloubergstrand being one of the top kite boarding locations in the world. The home is located in a Golf Estate and is very safe. There is a small Woolworth Foods along with some coffee shops and surf/kite boarding store about a 25 minute walk away through a very safe neighbourhood. From this home you are about a 10-15 minutes drive into the center of Camp Town. We are repeat visitors to this home and we always look forward to Etienne and Irina’s hospitality each time we are in Cape Town and consider them genuine, loving and FUN individuals.
