Located in the trendy De Waterkant area of Cape Town, this apartment is perfect for sightseers and business travellers alike. The balcony has views of the area, making it a lovely spot to enjoy a glass of local wine come evening. And with an open-plan living area inside, you'll have a comfortable retreat to return to after days of exploring. The local area is brimming with coffee shops, eateries and boutiques – it can get noisy, especially with nearby construction.
