This house is spectacular in every way and we would highly recommend it. We stayed for 5 nights as a group of 8 in late June, and enjoyed every minute. The house was very well decorated throughout, with beautiful views over Camps Bay. We watched the sunset most nights from the balcony, and especially enjoyed how close the house was to the restaurants along the beach. It was in the perfect location for being close to downtown, while being far enough up the hill that you had beautiful views and were away from the main traffic of the beach. I looked at other homes on Airbnb that were further up the hill and I don’t think we would have enjoyed those as much as it would have been a much longer walk to the downtown or would have required an Uber.
There were many nice touches about the home. Every room has a view of the water (the room with twin beds has a slightly obscured view), and every room has its own safe and a balcony. The Sonos system was also a nice surprise as we have one at home so it was easy to have music throughout the house while we were there. There was also a private funicular to bring your luggage and people up to the main floor. The Nespresso cappuccino machine was also a nice touch, with what appeared to be an unlimited supply of coffee 😊.
The pool was open and while the water was cool, it was actually warm enough outside on our first day that we went for a swim. We took Lavinia’s suggestion and ordered groceries on-line from Woolworths before our arrival and they were delivered and in the fridge when we arrived. Matthew and Gloria were excellent to have around and did all of the clean up from meals, made up the beds every day and did our laundry. A real five star experience!
