Fantastic location, we loved sitting on the balcony listening to the hustle and bustle of the market setting up and the various musicians playing traditional music. The location is excellent, half way between the waterfront and then Table mountain with Bo-Kapp en route. The city hop on hop off bus is literally on the next corner for those first timers to Cape Town. Excite taxis were brilliant, always courteous and on time. They ferried us all over the place. The Food Lovers Market is literally just 50 meters from ththe front door; think posh deli type supermarket, you can also eat in. Our recommendations for food are there and also the V&A food market. We had a magical sunset trip up Table Mountain- truly awesome, Robben Island is a "must" but be mindful that it's a tour for hundreds of people at a time, so as long as you're ready for that it's great! District Six museum is also close to the apartment and is a much more intimate way of hearing about SA history, pay the extra few rand and get a guide. All the guides were residents of District Six and all speak from the heart. We had an amazing time - enjoy!
