This was our second outing with airbnb and we were certainly not disappointed. Our main reservation prior to arrival was the location as on our previous visits to Cape Town were based at Sea Point which is much closer to the V&A Waterfront. We found Dean’s apartment was only a 15 minute drive from the V&A (as opposed to 5 from Sea Point) and there was a bus stop within easy walking distance (though we never used it). The location was good with sea views; sleeping to the sound of waves was most therapeutic. Dean was there to welcome us on arrival and gave us a detailed overview of his lovely apartment. The multi storey car park was secure, accessed via a guarded barrier which required the parking disc Dean supplied. The apartment block doubles as a hotel – we went to look at one of their self catering apartments which was twice the price and definitely less homely than Dean’s place. The Wang Thai restaurant was at one end of the apartment; we ate there several times, sometimes using them as a take away if our young children were asleep. The kids loved Dean’s place – he had 4 TV’s in a 2 bedroom apartment and his DSTV package included Disney Junior channel. Someone had left a Noddy DVD which entertained our 3 year old. Our ten month old had lots of space to crawl. In fact the place was so homely that we spent much more time indoors than we planned to. The hotel had a restaurant and a bar with live music and there was even a swimming pool though it was too cold at this time of year for us to use it. This place is ideal for young children as Dean helpfully provided a cot and there was space for us to install the second alongside it. We did make a few adjustments to some of the more fragile items to protect both them and the kids. Dean even left us with some bottles of wine which was a thoughtful touch. After spending 5 days here we would definitely stay again and would wholeheartedly recommend Dean for both his hospitality and awesome apartment.
