We liked the decor; solar heating; privacy of room with blinds; spaciousness for suitcases and welcoming attitude of reception; security; door personnel and appreciated the careful attention on how to enter with QR code. Also on your exit form clarify that luggage can be stored in the building and this is not the same as drop off luggage. The receptionist explained this Left luggage option was possible.

Very friendly reception and hosts. You felt as if you were visiting family or friends. The location is ideal to get to Blouberg / Big Bay, the Winelands, or airport. Getting to the City is fast, if you avoid the morning rush hours. And for shopping away from tourists traps, Tygervalley Mall is just around the corner. Don't forget to visit Tygerberg nature reserve to get an unforgettable view of the city, False Bay, Atlantic and mountains.

From the moment I arrived, I was blown away by the exceptional surroundings – a true slice of paradise. Every detail has been thoughtfully curated, creating an atmosphere of peace, comfort and top-class style. The views alone are worth the trip, but it was the warm hospitality that truly made my stay unforgettable. Lee-Ann is an exceptional host. It is rare to find a place that combines luxury and tranquility. If you're looking for a spot to relax and recharge, look no further. I'll definitely be back!
