From our initial enquiry to our departure from this delighfully and very cleverly laid out apartment maximise space and comfort, our 'remote' host Herbet and 'on site' host Simon could not have been more helpful, friendly, responsive, incredibly organised and efficient, and fun! Any enquiry or request was addressed promptly and in detail.
Check-in was a breeze thanks to 'idiot-proof' prior instructions with photos, the modern apartment was beautilly designed and furnished for combined modern living and 'homeliness', with just about every possible thoughtful extra provided, from a delicious complimentary welcome pack to first-aid kit, kayaks, pedal boat (life jackets provided), fabulous books and wall-mounted photos of Cape Town in the early 1900s.
Unfortunately unseasonal windy conditions prevented us novices from taking to the waterway (at the far end of the garden), but we enjoyed daily walks and runs to and around the highly popular and beautifully maintained local nature island, criss-crossed with trails and offering superb 360 degree views over the region.
Grocery/other shopping as well as super fast and friendly laundry facilities were all within a fw minutes' drive.
Lastly, as animal lovers in general and cat fans in particular, we were honoured to receive visits from our inquisitive and adorable feline neighbours :-)!
Thank you again so much, Herbet and Simon, for your first-class hospitality!
