The place was as described. I did not meet the host or communicate directly with the host at any stage, as it is evidently not managed by the owner, but by a management company. As such, it’s a bit impersonal compared with other similar Airbnb experiences.
However, the housekeeper, Charles, was wonderful. He was helpful at every stage, and made our stay extremely comfortable.
The distance from Constantia Village is not “literally 2 minutes”, but still convenient at a drive of about 8 minutes. It’s not really walkable, unless you want a hike!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and highly recommend it. The space is perfect for two people, there IS off-street parking, and the residential neighbourhood is peaceful and idyllic, with loads of mature trees and lovely views of the Constantia peaks.
Worth a try…
