This sleek studio apartment boasts an unbeatable location. It’s right in the middle of De Waterkant, the trendy neighbourhood where brightly coloured houses, boutiques and restaurants line the leafy cobbled streets. Step inside the apartment and you’ll immediately appreciate the chic grey colour palette with pops of yellow punctuating each room. A striking mural adorns the wall in the living area, which flows seamlessly into the kitchen and dining space. The mountains are perfectly framed in the windows, creating a picture-postcard view to wake up to in your comfy bed. The apartment is equipped with fast wi-fi and would be well suited to remote working, and with a washing machine as well as a secure parking spot, you have everything you need for longer stays. After breakfast at one of the quaint cafes in De Waterkant, take a short walk to the V&A Waterfront, where you’ll find museums, contemporary art galleries, and historic monuments to Nobel Peace Prize winners including Nelson Mandela. There’s no better city for hiking than Cape Town, and Table Mountain National park is a quick drive away. After a day of exploring, head home and relax in the comfort of your apartment with a glass of... South African wine.
