Wow..what a pleasant surprise to discover Reini's Place in Big Bay as my first experience of an Airbnb property.
It was just what I was looking for.... a place close to the beach with secure parking and many shops within walking distance and a great gym five minutes drive away
Those of you who have never been to Cape Town in the summer have not experienced 40 knot winds....... but sitting in Reini's tranquil garden you are immune to it all. It is totally sheltered and as a result it is so alarmingly silent, calming and peaceful, I found it all quite disconcerting! Luckily Reini is normally to hand with the offer of a glass of wine which helped.
I think most of the local wildlife finds solace and peace also in this garden. If you sit still, wait and watch you are rewarded with a host of wildlife. The largest being Reini's cute dog and even that is quite small.
Actually after a month staying here I liked it so much I am coming back for another two months next week.....what better a recommendation is that!
