If you have got to the point where you are reading this review, that means the house is available, in your price range and in the location you are after. Stop what you are doing, go back and click reserve. This place is absolutely amazing and Steve is the best host you could ever imagine...
Top of Fresnaye Avenue, opposite the house of a former South African president, so away from the noise and hustle/ bustle of Kloof Street, but only a 5 minute walk downhill to get there. The beaches of Seapoint are one road beyond that. Uber are usually readily available for about $2 to get you back up the hill.
Two good double bedrooms and one incredible Master suite with en-suite bathroom, dressing room and balcony. The lounge, kitchen and dining area are huge. The kitchen is literally home from home and the AV kit is off the scale. Every channel or film ever made at your fingertips. 5G Wi-Fi available throughout the house.
Cleaners come every day and will tidy up, do your washing, make the beds, as much or as little as you want.
Sun on some part of the terrace and pool all day with plenty of seating to eat, sunbathe, sleep whatever. Large BBQ and all the tools but be aware it is more expensive to go to a South African supermarket than it is to eat out every night!!!
And Steve is the most charming, hospitable and helpful host you could ever imagine. Always on hand if there is a problem... a few examples...
Laid on a meat, cheese and wine platter for when we arrived
Lent me his golf clubs to play at his local club - Metropolitan, if you are a golfer, play there - it's amazing.
Offered to drive us to a restaurant on Easter Sunday as Ubers were scarce
and many many more little touches which have made our 10 days there memorable.
Many thanks Steve from our family of 6.
And to future guests, don't delay, book it now!!!
