The house was really cool! We enjoyed the view (especially from the living room and the kitchen). We have read a really negative review, written shortly before we arrived, but the house is really great. Yes - it’s older but really well maintained. The cleaning ladies are - like everyone in ZA - not really punctual - but doing a good job. The house is also good for “real living” - I cooked most of the time and really enjoyed it. Furthermore - it’s really well situated - so that you are quickly in Gardens, Hout Bay... we enjoyed the pool and the garden. Last but not least - the famous steps... yes, with luggage and hot weather, it’s and interesting experience, but completely manageable.
It was one of our best vacation locations ever!!!
