Thank you Kosie for renting us your beautiful apartment and for being such a great host! Hopefully we will see you again!
Me and my bf rented Kosies apartment for a month and are beyond satiesfied with everything about it. First of all, the apartment itself is one of the most beautiful and amazing apartments that we have ever stayed at! It is probably 7-8 meters in ceiling height and gorgeous floors and furniture. The bathroom is also topnotch with concrete walls and floor and a huge tub. The whole apartment has a industrial feeling about it with exquisite taste in decoration and furniture. Further on, the location of the apartment is right up in the beginning on Bree Street, which ended up being our favorite street in whole Cape Town! Bree Street had our favorite restaurants even though some good ones are also on Kloof Street, which also starts just on the other side of the house. Those are the most popular streets in Cape Town with a variety of cool and vibrant bars and restaurants. Our favorite breakfast/brunch restaurants ended up being Jason’s bakery and Clarke’s on Bree Street and Nourishd on Kloof Street. On Sunday’s a brunch on Mulberry and Prince is a must! For dinner, we enjoyed Sea Breeze (Bree Street) and Asoka (Kloof Street) the most. The apartment is also close to the foodstores on Kloof Street with a 5 min walk to Kwik spar and if you just continue another few minutes you end up on Woolworths, which is a nicer grocery store (and the one we prefered). What I want to say is that the apartment is right in the center of everything! The first day we also got a gym membership at Rbsi gym, which is right by Jasons bakery (2 mins away) on Bree Street. Last but not least, Kosie was a great host! He met us up on the arrival day, walked us through everything we needed to know and gave us tips. He also updated us when there were events close to the apartment, which was really appreciated. On the day of departure, he met us at the apartment and we chatted for a while about our experience, which was really nice.
During the month we took a flight to Johannesburg to go on safari in the Kruger National Park, which was one of the most incredible experiences. If you are staying in South Africa for a while, we would defenitely recommend to go to the Kruger Park! We also spend one day going to wine farms in Constantia, one day in Stellenbosch, which was beyond incredible and beautiful. It is also very cheap and easy to go by uber so that is how we commuted in the city.
