We stayed three weeks in Jenny's Cape Town holiday apartment, opting a flat over a hotel room. And we're so glad we did! Jenny, the owner has decorated the flat with furniture that is stylish, functional and, importantly, comfortable. From the moment Sarah, the property manager, opened the door, we felt at home. It is spacious and cozy. Too, everything you need is provided, including a washer and dryer, which was a bonus for us since we had been traveling for several months prior to our Cape Town arrival.
Jenny, the owner, was absolutely wonderful in helping work through all of the rental issues. In fact, she was excellent in responding to our questions and concerns, and did so immediately! She's an awesome person to work with! She even provided us with a place to store extra luggage prior to our check in date so we did not have to take two additional large cases with us on a safari trip. You'll love working with her, promise!
An additional note to this rental: It's in the Rockwell hotel, which, in itself, is a bonus. First of all, it's an easy ten minute safe walk to both the waterfront and the city center, and we walked to one or the other every day of our stay, minus the two days we were in Hermanus. Because it is a hotel, the Rockwell thus provides all of the conveniences, bar, restaurant, concierge services, tour bookings, you may need, all located in the lobby. Second, evert Friday we were there the hotel provided live music, in the lobby, and the groups/music was fabulous! It was an added attraction we had not considered, but such a treat! Third, the hotel staff is amazing, all kind and more than willing to make your stay comfortable and memorable. We fell in love with them all, Colin the manager included!
If you have had any reservations about dealing with a rental in South Africa, working with Jenny will make those concerns vanish immediately. We know we'll be back soon! Jenny and Sarah, thanks for everything you did to make our stay an amazing one!
