Staying in Carin's beautiful home was one of the best Airbnb experiences we've ever had, and we've had a quite a few!!! Carin had a lot to do with why we enjoyed our stay so much. She was super helpful, thoughtful and offered us many suggestions of where to go and what to do. The house itself is beautiful and quite new. Our room was immaculate, tastefully decorated with really comfy beds and views of the very impressive Table Mountain.
Location wise it was perfect! Not being right in the centre of town had initially been a concern for us but we needn't have worried. We much preferred the lovely area of our Airbnb than to where our friends were staying in the city centre. We had a car but we rarely used it for around town. It was an easy walk into the city centre and the nearby Kloof St, where there were many great restaurants and shops.
Our favourite cafe was The Blue Cafe, recommended by Carin, and only a 2 min walk away. We went there for both dinner (try their Boboti, it was delish!) and breakfast and I miss it already! The neighbourhood felt safe and it was very quiet. We were sad to leave Cape Town and Carin's Airbnb which we wouldn't hesitate to stay at again and would thoroughly recommend. Thank you so much Carin, you made our stay in Cape Town a very special one.
