Mark‘s upper floor is a great place to relax after a busy day, catch the evening sun on the back balcony. Although Kalk bay has heavy traffic and a train passing through, his apartment is very peaceful, with waves and wind to rock you to sleep. It is light and airy, you look forward to opening the blinds every morning. Well equipped, safe and an added plus is the extra single bed, for those needing their own space. Both beds are comfortable. We chose to travel without a car, so walking to the town was about 5-10 minutes. Great Restaurants/Cafes/Shops…very laid back hippie style—apart from the traffic that flows through town, but, alas, you can’t have everything. A little Deli, „lekker“, carries all the basics. Olympia Bakery covers the rest. Nice tidal pools nearby, if you like long beach walks, turn right to Fish Hoek. We also enjoyed the two galleries in Kalk bay, with a wide and excellent range of African modern and traditional painting, textiles, ceramics, wonderful to explore…..
