Mike and Caroline felt like friends from the moment we arrived. There was a bottle of wine in a cooler on the table, fresh flowers, and an enthusiastic greeting. We felt like honored guests. Mike helped us with plans around the Cape Town area, and gave us careful directions to get to all of our destinations. The apartment is perfect-lots of space, a well stocked kitchen, WIFI, and all of the necessary amenities. Caroline thoughtfully left us granola, rusks, and milk for breakfast so we did not have to shop on our first night. The setting is beautiful-a lovely garden with a pool, great plantings, bird feeders, and three friendly dogs. The place is very secure, with an automatic locking gate that encloses an off street parking area as well as the garden. We had a lovely visit, and even ate supper with the family on our last night. I would highly recommend this listing to anyone who will be in the Cape Town area as both a great value for the money AND, most of all, a wonderful experience with an outstanding host.
