...our choice of what Cape Town has to offer.

Franschhoek

...only a 45 minute drive to the culinary capital of the Western Cape home to 7 of South African's leading restaurants and 43 wine cellars. It is a beautiful setting hemmed in on three sides by mountains and vineyards that makes this our favourite lunchtime spot.

"We were blown away at the value. Conveniently located, huge house and comfortable. Felt like home. We were between the Waterfront and down town, could walk or get everywhere and the local community was friendly and welcoming."

AREA INFO

 

DE WATERKANT

A district of Cape Town between the CBD and Green Point, below Signal Hill and above the V&A Waterfront, our self-catering properties are ideal for both vacation and business trips. We are conveniently located close to the Cape Town Convention Centre, V&A Waterfront and Cape Town Stadium.

Every Capetonian will tell you this is the trendy fashionable area of the city where if you like the buzz of a small village feel that is only ten minutes walk to the city center this is the place to stay. Described as a mix between San Francisco and Mykonos the area dates back to the late 1700’s.

Now a-days you still hear the noon day cannon from Signal Hill whilst wandering these historic cobbled streets. The area boasts some great restaurants, bars and clubs and retains a bohemian character that you’ll find hard to forget.
