Jacques’s home is an incredibly welcoming, comfortable and relaxing space. There was tons of room for our group of 8, and we settled in immediately to this family friendly home. Jacques went above and beyond to accommodate us, making sure that we had everything we needed for a fantastic visit. He was easily reachable and provided lots of detailed, helpful information about the house. Jacques also did an outstanding job equipping the house to deal with the devastating drought and water restrictions that Cape Town was experiencing during our stay.
The view from the braai area on the porch is stunning, and it was such a pleasure to dine while listening to the calming sound of breaking waves! The house is in a perfect location for exploring around the quiet little town of Melkbosstrand - a block from a safe swimming area on the beach, two blocks from a grocery store, and just a few minutes to several excellent oceanfront restaurants. Cape Town city centre is also an easy 30-40 minute drive away making this the perfect base to enjoy the city and surrounding areas.
We honestly cannot recommend Jacques’s place enough!!!!!!
