I spent five nights at Robbert and Gerda’s place while in Cape Town for the launch of my book. It could not have been more perfect!
The apartment is absolutely stunning. Set high up on the hill in Tamboerskloof, the view is to die for and I spent many happy mornings on the balcony.
The whole place is very stylishly decorated, with Gerda’s amazing photography featuring throughout. The fireplace was also amazing, making the winter evenings cozy and warm.
The setup of the apartment is perfect for sharing, with two large bedrooms separated by the common kitchen/living area. Each bedroom has its own big (and stunning) bathroom with walk-in rain shower, complete with twin sinks on the master bedroom side.
The welcome bottle of wine and juice was a lovely touch and, being foodies, Gerda and Robbert had great recommendations for local cafes and restaurants. (I can vouch for the Blue Cafe down the road for a great breakfast with locals.)
Last but not least, I have to mention the lovely Noah who came every single day to tidy and clean the apartment. I have stayed in many Airbnbs around the world and never before have I had a daily cleaning service! It added a real touch of hotel comfort to a place that otherwise felt like home.
Highly recommended and I hope to stay again.
