    There was nothing that we didn't like.

    The accommodation is exactly as you see in the photos. It is exceptionally clean and well equipped with everything we needed and wanted. We were there for 5 nights and the beds are very comfortable and the shower water always piping hot. Michelle is a wonderful hostess who catered for our every need. We even received freshly baked muffins on our 3rd evening. Thank you Michelle. It was our second stay with you and we will definitely be back.

    We liked everything about the place..The set-up is perfect ,,everything is on point..Like the privacy of the place..The fact that you don't bump into the host when you go out or cone in it a bonus...Sometimes it feels like you disturbing host.

    I'd have to really think hard to find something not to like. Some may find the parking arrangements and arranging vehicles, if the garage option is chosen, a little awkward, however Kevin and Michelle manage this superbly. Their communication and management skills for the parking arrangements were exceptional and there was never an instant during the 4 weeks of our stay where garaging or taking the car out was an issue. Well done guys. There is also additional off street parking in front of the property.

    The Hosts, Kevin and Michelle, were absolutely the best you could ask for. Nothing was a problem for them. Well done K & M. Communication was second to none, with any requests attended to immediately. The unit was clean, tidy and spacious, with more than adequate wardrobe and storage space. The kitchen was reasonably equipped with all the necessities to prepare meals when required. The bed was very comfortable. There were also those little personal touched that really made us feel like we were at home. The location is a short walking distance to a supermarket, the railway station, The Zandflei and less than 2 kilometers from Muizenberg and the beach. Everything for a perfect stay. Thank you, Michelle and Kevin for your kind hospitality.

    The apartment becomes a little hot late in the afternoon in summer when closed but cools quickly once the windows are opened. There is a fan to assist with the cooling.

    The location was perfect for our requirements. The hosts were absolutely exceptional. Thé apartment was well equipped with all the necessary equipment for cooking. Highly recommend this stay.

    Earlier this year we traveled from New York City and stayed at an Airbnb nestled in quiet suburban Lakeside, Cape Town, and it was a comfortable and memorable stay. The property is ideally situated, offering both peaceful seclusion and easy access to some of Cape Town’s most iconic attractions. The Airbnb is located above a garage with its own separate entrance. Tastefully furnished, it blends modern comforts with light touches of local charm. The interiors are simply but well decorated, with a soothing color palette and cozy elements that make you feel right at home. Every detail has been thoughtfully considered, from the comfortable bedroom to the stylish living spaces. The kitchen is well-equipped, and the living room provides a perfect spot to relax after a day of sightseeing. On the wettest, coldest winter nights, you may need to ask for an extra blanket but otherwise the apartment is well insulated and cosy. One of the highlights of this stay was the hospitality. The owners, Kevin and Michelle. are friendly, welcoming, and genuinely care about their guests’ comfort. While they maintain a very respectful distance, they check in periodically to ensure everything is going well. This balance of attentiveness without being intrusive made for a stress-free and enjoyable experience. They are also full of helpful local tips if you want to learn more about the area or need recommendations. The location is a perfect mix of tranquil residential surroundings and proximity to all the attractions of False Bay. Muizenberg beach, St. James and Kalk Bay are all just a short drive or train ride away, offering a beautiful stretch of coastline with a laid-back vibe. Additionally, the nearby mountains provide fantastic hiking opportunities and scenic views. There’s a great nearby cafe, serving good coffee and light food, located in a small shopping complex, with Woolworths as the flagship store.

    The extra touches were wonderful. The welcome sign, chocolate on the bed, microwave popcorn for a movie night made my stay feel homey. Michelle and Kevin checked up on me to make sure I was okay and gave me suggestions on places I should visit. The loft is about a 10 minute drive to st James beach and about 30 mins away from Simon’s town, convenient and comfortable place to stay when exploring the South. I definitely see myself visiting again. Thank you both.

    It was all Great!

    They were awesome hosts! This place was just great, and I will certainly return. I brought my Father along and I originally flew from overseas to get a new U.S Visa, but ended staying for 2 weeks. The location is great, very close to Muizenberg, and Tokai the other way, also two main roads and a highway leading to three main directions. There's a very nice supermarket and little centre just down the road, and the pizza place does great pizzas if you want to Order in. I loved sitting on the patio late afternoon just staring up at the Tokai mountains, a spectacular view. The loft's design is really cool, spacious, and very clean. The loft's windows are also very nicely placed to draw in the breeze from the mountain. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need. The smart t.v as well as the WiFi speed was great. I will certainly return here time and time again, this place is perfect
