Overall our experience was positive, enjoyable, and worth the price! We were unaware of load shedding upon arrival, which is partly our own ignorance, but was explained to us during check in (no generator). The only other inconvenience was that not every bedroom had a working air conditioning unit / no central air. Those two issues aside, the views are fantastic, the town of Hout Bay is wonderful, and the host was very responsive. Geographically, all of our activities in every direction were very accessible considering we had a rental car. We have great memories of this trip!
