We spent over two weeks in Monya and Jeremy’s wonderfully renovated and decorated house and are so glad we found it. It has so much thought and love in all details that we felt at home right away.
As we are always looking for a spacious place that offers enough possibilities to relax and also to play for our little daughter, the house does offer both.
It was therefore the perfect spot for us to have another relaxed vacation in Capetown with our little girl (3.5 years).
We enjoyed the spacious living area￼, as well as the thoughtfully set up sleeping/bathroom/wardrobe situation in the main bedroom very much (we didn't use the other sleeping rooms).
Our daughter was especially happy about the play area next to the dining table as well as the pool (which is secured by a net/fence for the times when it is not being used and is great when travelling with little kids).
I could also imagine a small group of adults traveling together or a family of more than 3 enjoying the house a lot as there are so many areas to sit and chat or have some quiet time.
It is an old house with wooden floorings in some parts- they do make some noise while walking, but we loved the atmosphere just as it is.
The kitchen is equipped with anything you might think of. I enjoyed preparing food in this beautiful place. What is not shown on the pictures, but is perfectly adding up, is the storage space right in the kitchen as well as the cutlery next to it.
Compared to the more central areas in Capetown, Rosebank was a bit more to drive to get into the city, but for most day trips it is an even better location and there are plenty of shopping options nearby as well, like a well-assorted Woolworths supermarket with an excellent bakery/coffee place next door or the Cavendish shopping mall in Claremont.
Monya has provided plenty of information before our stay and has been very responsive to any question and need we had, so you can be sure not to be left alone with any topic that might occur.
I can definitely recommend her as a host and the house as the perfect home. Thank you so much fo the great experience, Monya!
