This is a pleasant oasis in a nice quiet neighborhood. The cottage is separate from the main house where Chris & Pat live, and we spent a lot of our time just relaxing by the pool. Chris & Pat keeps a high service standard like what you would get at hotels but still with that little personal touch to it. It is apparent that they have done this for over 20 yrs. Communication was great. Chris sent us the necessary information at various times -- even small details like which roads to avoid at certain times due to traffic when we were getting there. In the living room they have a list of useful advices about where to eat, things to do etc. Cleanliness was top notch with regular emptying of trash and changes of towels. The location is convenient with a short walk to the beach, grocery, pubs, and restaurants. We especially enjoyed eating at the Hussar Grill right up the street. It's also just a short drive to the Table Mountain or the Waterfront. All in all, we truly enjoyed the relaxing stay and the hospitality of Chris & Pat!
