I feel extremely fortunate to have found Vaughan and his beautiful apartment. The location was PERFECT, only a few minutes' walk to the beach and the restaurants of Camps Bay, the bus stop immediately across the street which takes you right into Cape Town city centre (we had a rental car, but if it wasn't such an expensive cab ride to Boulder's Beach we would not have needed it). To give some perspective on location, there is a resort NEXT DOOR. The flat itself is kept immaculately clean and the views are to die for (the owner's description is modest).

Vaughan has lived in Cape Town for years and his recommendations have a local flavor and not found in guidebooks (Cafe Haas for kopi luwak -google it- and Bo Kaap Kombuis for Cape Malay food were both great, as was the popular Biscuit Mill for Saturday brunch). Vaughan is a great guy with exquisite taste; my friend and I both felt he could easily be a friend we would hang out with at home, if it weren't a 30 hour journey. Thank you for the South African hospitality!
