If you’re reading this review trust me book this place 😉 it was just perfect from the moment I checked in until the moment I left.

Wir können diese Unterkunft absolut empfehlen. Sehr, sehr sauber, tolle Ausstattung mit vielen schönen Designelementen und es wurden zusätzliche Services angeboten. Die Unterkunft wurde täglich geputzt / Geschirr gespült und... read more Wäsche aufgehangen. Die Lage ist schön, allerdings muss man schon fit sein denn zu Fuß kann die Lage auf dem Hügel schon anstrengend sein. In ca 10 min Fußmarsch ist man auf der Kloof Street, wo es sämtliche Annehmlichkeiten gibt. Zusätzlich hat man einen fantastischen Ausblick auf den Tafelberg.Die Nachbarschaft ist sicher und ruhig und unseren Mietwagen konnten wir immer direkt vor der Tür parken.Der Gastgeber Johan ist super freundlich und hat uns viele Tipps für die Umgebung gegeben.

One of the best Airbnb experiences. Johan and Mias are amazing hosts who will go the extra mile to make your stay as perfect as possible. Their dedication to creating... read more this beautiful home is truly inspiring. A bottle of wine, water and delicious short bread was the cherry on top of the warm welcome. Communication before and throughout our stay couldn't have been better. The studio is one of a kind - tastefully and thoughtfully furnitured, beautiful art work, a nice range of materials that will speak to all your senses, a super comfortable big bed, nice rain shower, kitchen that has everything you'd need. Tamboerskloof is a great area, close enough to a nice variety of restaurants and cafes, safe, quiet, pretty houses, nice mountain views and street parking right in front of the house was never a problem. Our highlight was a get together one evening with a glass of wine, cuddles with the doggies and great and meaningful conversations. Precious memories. Thank you, Johan and Mias!

This is special. Johan and Mias have created an oasis in the city centre, from where you can enjoy panoramic views of Table Mountain and Lions Head, and easily... read more access all that Cape Town has to offer. The location is remarkably tranquil and perfect for the solo traveller or couple seeking a romantic getaway. There aren't enough superlatives for the apartment itself: tastefully decorated and brimming with all the creature comforts you'd expect of a boutique hotel. The rusks are worth the booking alone! I am jealous of who gets to stay in this wonderful place next and look forward to returning soon.

Simply the best AirBnB we've ever stayed at. This is a large downstairs apartment, beautifully renovated using high-end materials and tastefully decorated--what you might expect in a luxury hotel suite.... read more Despite it being a garden apt., there are partial views of the city, and from the front door looms majestic Table Mountain. The neighborhood is quiet, but you can walk to restaurants on Kloof St. in 10 minutes. Uber is very inexpensive, so getting around is easy. Perhaps best of all was getting to know hosts Johan and Mias, who provided great recommendations for restaurants and sight-seeing, and were flexible about check-in and check-out. They helped make our three nights in Cape Town very special.

The property is is incredibly well designed and even... read more more beautiful than the pictures depict.
