Richard·5·Sep. 2026· "Stuart and Anton are truly the nicest innkeepers I have ever experienced.
To call their amazing modern home an inn is not doing it justice.
It was truly like visiting family except better. They are a wonderful couple along with their two adorable Scottish terriers.
They were amazing hosts always offering things and also they stressed your independence as a guest.
Such wonderful thoughtful gestures as making sure you have landed safely, asking what you want for breakfast but also keeping the pool cover on to heat the pool for me the next day.
Truly four seasons quality with a warmer touch. Thanks to both of you :)"

Flooris·5·Jul. 2026· "Andre and Jacques are great hosts - from the check-in to check-out they made sure that I am in a good space. The easiness of being and communicativeness of the two are to be mentioned. The house is beautifully decorated and the outside area is well constructed for relaxation. Seeing that I was with them in the winter, I appreciated the electric blanket on the bed. I can recommend this accommodation 100%, especially for those who like to connect with their hosts."

Simone·5·Oct. 2023· "Blake is a great host! Thoughtful and kind he gave me precious advised about Cape Town's safety and amenities.
The location is great, walking distance from the waterfront and gay pubs.
The room was spot on, clean and comfortable and the use of a common kitchen was ideal for a quick breakfast.
I highly recommend this ********."
