The apartment itself was spotless, cozy, and well-designed with modern touches that made it feel like home. Communication with the team was excellent—prompt, friendly, and helpful throughout our entire stay. They went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect.

Squirrels Way Cottages feels like a true home away from home — we keep coming back because it just hits all the right notes. The sitting room is cozy, the bedroom is peaceful, and the kitchen is fully equipped with a dining table that overlooks the garden and pool — perfect for morning coffee or evening meals. The cottage is immaculate, well-maintained, and always welcoming. Any small issue we’ve had was addressed promptly and professionally. It’s incredibly central — great restaurants, shops, and local spots are just a short drive away. Plus, the park behind the property is lovely for a morning stroll, and being close to cricket and rugby grounds is a bonus if you’re into live sports. A big thank you to Ann, Lynn, and Constance for your warm hospitality — you make every stay feel special. Can’t wait to return!
Protea Hotel Cape Town Mowbray
The hotel is clean and well-maintained, with a convenient location just a short walk from public transit, making it easy to explore Cape Town.

That said, if you're visiting outside of peak event periods, this hotel offers great value for its location and comfort. It's an excellent choice for travelers who want a quiet, comfortable stay with easy access to the city’s attractions.
