Jaco & Charl provided us with an oustanding AirBnB experience at their Tamboerskloof rental. It is evident that they care that we had a smooth experience from even before we left our home to get to Cape Town. They set up a WhatsApp chat with us to answer any questions before leaving so that we knew what to expect, got our flight details so that they could be ready for when we arrived. We were early in to Cape Town and they were very happy to have us drop off our bags over 4 hours before check in time while they were doing some cleaning and quick renovations and asked their crew to speed through the work to get us checked in 2 hours early. Being able to drop off our bags, with a recommendation for a nearby restaurant to fill our stomachs while the work in the house was completed was perfect.
The property itself is excellent. It is exactly as shown in the pictures and described in the listings. The view is out of this world - it took our breath away every morning. The house felt safe and comfortable with an alarm system and was located in a community that was easy for us to walk to nearby Kloof street to many restaurants and a couple convenient grocery stores. It is located in the city bowl so it is convenient to take Ubers to table mountain/lions head for hiking, Camps bay for a day at the beach, the V&A waterfront etc. It really lies in the middle of all of these things and was no more than a 10 minute Uber ride from everything but wine country!
They provided us a with a list of recommended restaurants and activities well ahead of our trip which we used extensively. They also helped us make some last minute decisions while we were there. They were accessible via the WhatsApp group all the time or by phone - and checked in with us from time to time to make sure we didn't need anything extra.
There was everything you could want and more in the home for your travels. Coffee, espresso, cream, fruit, cereals, yogurt, milk, cookies, pasta, jams and more were all pre-stocked in the kitchen for our use. They even gave us a bottle of MCC (South African champagne) to congratulate us on our recent wedding! The toiletries provided were excellent. The kitchen had everything you could need to cook and server, but you'll want to go out to the many amazing restaurants nearby.
What made our stay so special, however, was how attentive Jaco & Charl both were and how much they seemed to truly care that we were having a good time and felt well looked after. They gave us the perfect amount of space, with the perfect amount of attention to make our Honeymoon trip absolutely perfect.
I recommend staying at this rental without reserveation!
Thanks so much guys!!
