This was our first Airbnb experience. We were overwhelmingly impressed. The photos do not do justice to how beautiful Kate's house is, and how gorgeous the views are. The location was perfect for us - right beside a public golf course, and within a stone's throw of Malabar rock pool and beach. We were able to see the new year fireworks from the terrace. It was a lovely quiet neighborhood.

Kate's house was immaculately clean, well-decorated, modern and well-appointed. She very thoughtfully left us some wine and a platter of food for our late arrival, and ensured that we had basic provisions for the next day. We also had fresh kitchen and bath towels, shampoo, detergent, etc. Her oven was newly installed just prior to our stay. Kate also thoughtfully left us golf clubs and snorkel sets, although we brought our own and didn't use hers.

The hot water gas tanks unexpectedly ran out during the first week of our stay. Kate was very apologetic and came to fix the problem within half an hour of our message. She also arranged for new tanks to be delivered immediately after Christmas. We got to know her lovely parents who lived nearby and helped with the lawn.

We felt as though we were being hosted by friends, and treated her house as we would our own.
