If you've been looking for somewhere to stay in Cape Town and have stumbled upon the Zebra House, look no further. This little gem will truly become your home away from home and is located in such a safe, central neighborhood you'll never want to leave. The neighbourhood has private security which you can see 24/7, and we never felt unsafe at any time during our stay. Pro-tip: Café Charles is basically right across the street and after you go once, you'll find yourself there every day!
Beyond just the house, Helet is not only one of the kindest Airbnb hosts you'll come across, she's also one of the most genuine and approachable people you'll likely ever meet. Helet easily made the biggest difference in our 2-week stay in Cape Town. She went out of her way to check in often, provide us with amazing recommendations, and even gave our group a couple of rides when our options were limited. She really is a wonderful person.
If we ever make it back across the globe to visit Cape Town, we know where we'll be staying.
