Me and my friend got the chance to stay in this oh so beautiful sanctuary in Cape Town. It was our first time in Cape Town. Tim, Mike and all of the hosts of the house were beyond friendly and accommodating. Stepping into the lush garden where they have their own sustainable water solution, organic vegetables and herbs, the flowers, guava and avocado trees, eggplants, it felt like stepping into Eden’s garden.
The house is huge with many bedrooms, small flats, enough bathrooms and nice sharing kitchen and garden area. First night we had a Brain (South African BBQ) and it was soooo nice. There is also a fireplace which is really cozy. Another good thing was the fast WiFi! Probably the fastest WiFi I’ve experienced during our whole stay in SA. The Observatory is a really nice residential neighbourhood with a short walking distance to chic coffee shops, restaurants and grocery stores which also feels safe. I can recommend the Mango Ginger place which has amazing smoothies and wraps (avocado, mint, spinach and yoghurt one was to die for).
I would really recommend spend some time in Mike’s place. It’s not just a room, it’s a place where you can call home and where you will meet interesting warm hearted energising people. I just want to go back right now!
