We had a wonderful month-long stay at Hester’s place in Gordon’s Bay and recommend it enthusiastically. Hester and her family were so welcoming and hospitable, and getting to know them became a special part of our vacation. The apartment is spacious, very comfortably furnished and well equipped. It’s in a great location, just a 5-minute walk to the beach and close to restaurants and grocery stores. The airport is only a half-hour drive, and when we wanted to go do something in Cape Town (which we did several times) it was never more than an hour to get there, and sometimes less depending on our destination. Gordon’s Bay itself is a very nice, casual, small beach town and has a lot to offer. There are several nature preserves nearby that have good hiking trails and the Clarence Drive along the coast to Betty’s Bay is beautiful. We had a wonderful time and are so glad we chose it!
