Just a stone's throw away from the lively Cape Quarter, the V&A Waterfront, and the bustling Sea Point Promenade in the city's oh-so-trendy De Waterkant district you will find this quirky two bedroom apartment. With a cool, rainforest-inspired decor that brings in loads of natural fabrics and textures and a faultless attention to detail when it comes to creating a homely living environment, we think this home would be the ideal base for a work trip, family holiday, or even a romantic escape with your loved one. We especially love how the accents of deep forest green, as well as the careful placement of wood accents, within the home echo the leafy outlook from the balcony. Open up those large sliding doors to the balcony and allow the sounds of vibrant Cape Town to waft in on the breeze as you make use of the sociable kitchen to prepare a homecooked meal. Then, it's out to the welcoming outdoor dining area (accessible from both the living and bedroom) to enjoy it with a glass of crisp South African Chenin Blanc. We'll cheers to that!
