Maggie was very gracious and responsive from the start of our inquiry. She asked pertinent questions and gave all the information we needed to ensure that we would have a comfortable stay. She welcomed us at the property herself. There were little welcoming chocolates on each pillow as well as a delightful bottle of wine and easter chocolates for the kids. We all thought that this was a nice personal touch. Since it was the first time the property was being listed on airbnb, Maggie wanted to ensure that it would be a positive experience and worked with us to accommodate our needs and to ensure that we had everything we needed to be comfortable. What a beautiful home indeed! The entire property including the rooms and garden were as pictured and described. Our children were in absolute heaven with all the activities available to keep them entertained for hours including a pool, trampoline, an 'enchanted fairy garden', a tv and games room with fusball, ping pong and pool tables as well as a separate children's playroom with Wii. It was certainly the perfect home for a family vacation.

We felt safe and secure at the house which is situated in a beautiful neighbourhood. I was able to go for a morning run alone without worrying about my safety. We could drive to the well appointed Constantia village mall in 5 minutes. It was easy to get onto any of the routes to all major attractions and shopping malls and markets. We especially loved the fact that we could walk less than 5 minutes to connect to the stunning and serene hiking trails of table mountain!

Their housekeeper was available on the property during our entire stay and she helped with everything we needed, including assisting with laundry and generally ensuring the cleanliness of the home.

We had come to Cape Town to participate in the two Oceans Marathon. Maggie's home is right around the bend from a section of the route. Maggie was very sweet to send along thoughtful messages of encouragement to us on the day before our run.
