Where to begin? This was hands down the best Airbnb we have ever stayed in. Walking in, you feel like you are transported into a different world- every inch of the penthouse is decorated with such beautiful detail. The view of the ocean right from the balcony (another masterpiece) is beyond breathtaking, and watching the sun rise and set over the water from our bed was one of the most tranquil things we’ve ever experienced. The penthouse is fully stocked with everything you need and is walking distance to a ton of great restaurants and shops.
But perhaps the best part of this Airbnb is Michael and Stephen themselves.
They were such attentive hosts and truly one of the most memorable parts of our entire trip. They will be available right away if you need them, but will be completely out of sight if you’d rather have total privacy (though I can’t imagine you’d want this because they are two of the coolest, kindest, and most interesting people ever). We came for our honeymoon, and they went out of their way to make us feel welcome and catered to (they even pulled out an American flag for the 4th of July!). They are incredibly knowledgeable of the area and the best attractions, and even made a binder of all of their favorite spots (I highly recommend taking their recommendations!)
Our first time in Cape Town was what it was because of Michael and Stephen, and we truly cannot thank them enough. We HIGHLY recommend this Airbnb for anyone looking to have an elevated Cape Town experience (in every sense of the word). Thank you Michael and Stephen- we will surely be back!!!
