Amale was an amazing host! My flight into Cape Town arrived late in the evening, but she met me cheerily upon arrival and with some food ready to go in the fridge. The cottage was exactly as described: quiet, clean, well-appointed and less than 1/2 km from the beach at Camps Bay. (In fact, you can hear the waves breaking in the distance if you leave the door open, which I did most of the time even though it was the Cape Town winter!) Amale checked in with me a few times to make sure I was well sorted, and was highly respectful of my space and privacy during what was a restful weekend for me ahead of a week of work. I can't recommend this place more highly!
