With lovely canal views, this studio home has a fantastic location on the city centre's harbourfront. Relax on the private balcony and take in the water vistas with a glass of wine, or enjoy them from the living room too. We love this light open-plan space that leads to the bedroom via louvred folding doors. This place is ideal for a solo traveller, couple or business professional, as it’s conveniently located for either work or play. It’s just a five-minute walk to Cape Town International Convention Centre and a ten to fifteen-minute stroll from the V&A Waterfront. Table mountain and the famous beaches of Clifton and Camps Bay are also under a fifteen-minute drive away, so you have the best of both worlds here.
