It was a great pleasure to have been hosted by Janine and Trevor. Their communications and directions were impeccable right from the onset, from whence I had booked their place until when I left after a week’s stay. Having their number on the WhatsApp app on my phone, was very useful for communications.
The gated community where their place is located, is not far from the northern suburbs of Capetown, they are right by the ocean with a private beach, thus placing them in a different category by themselves. Also, their place is extremely secure. No need to worry about a thing.
There are plenty of shopping malls and plazas that not too far from them. Their place isn’t too far from City Centre either by driving. Using Ubers was our preferred mode way of transportation. UBER took the stress off renting a car, and that includes driving oneself around.
Capetown tourist attractions are easily accessible. One can go to the CBD, go on a Township tour, visit the Waterfront area of the city, the Table Mountain, and even go on a visit to Robben Island, where Nelson Mandela was incarcerated, without having to travel too far.
Janine had recommended the City Sights double decker bus for sightseeing. That was a great suggestion. Was able to see quite a bit of the city at an affordable price.
Their place is a studio, and it’s very tastefully decorated, and cozy. The WiFi was on 24/7. So also was a Central AC and Heating system which the guests can control to suit their needs. This was a huge factor for me in choosing their place.
Capetown is notorious for its load shedding. Meaning that power would go on and off at a pre-announced time. No worries at all at Trevor’s place, since he’s got it all covered with a backup solar generator and a portable lantern.
They had everything one could need for the short stay or even longer. Trevor even organized the laundry at no additional cost. That was extremely gracious of him.
Their house is actually located inside a Golf Estate. The guest house offers total privacy from your hosts, and it provides their guests with a separate entrance👍🏽, coupled with a great view of the 10th hole.
They came in only when you requested that they do. Such as to explain how to use some of the home gadgets, as they are slightly different from those we use here in the United States🇺🇸.
On the whole, I’d give them a 5 star 🌟 rating. If you love and appreciate the good things of life, you’d like their place.
