Kalkhoven Cottage is an ideal place to stay in Kalk Bay. Perfectly situated just up the hill from the harbour and the main road (with the Portuguese Restaurant, Salt and the justly famous Olympia Cafe and Bakery just a two minute walk away), the modernized cottage itself is architecturally striking, secure and extremely comfortable. Although we didn't cook, we enjoyed the excellent coffee and the kitchen was well equipped and stocked, even with herbs and seasonings. The double bed in the main bedroom was somewhat softer than we're used to but outfitted with luxurious linens - and a beautiful sliver of a view of the mountains. There are three beds up the spiral staircase for kids, which we didn't need, but which would serve a family well. Both Olga and Stephan were very warm and affable - easy to communicate with, and lovely and responsive hosts. We'll definitely stay at their place again when we visit Kalk Bay!
