On the border of the trendy De Waterkant and the historic Bo Kaap, this stylish apartment is surrounded by leafy streets, pockets of multicolored cottages and baroque architecture. Take a stroll through the neighborhood and stumble upon an array of fashion boutiques, art galleries, craft coffee shops and museums. With so much to see and do, we recommend starting the day with a few moments of peace on the balcony, which enjoys a privileged positon with views over Table Mountain. Brew a cup of coffee and take a seat - the rainbow of the city below against the natural green landscape is a sight that needs to be savoured. The interior mimics the vibrant scenery outside, with pops of colour at every turn, marrying the outside with the inside in a way that's chic and understated. After a day of soaking up all of the culture and history this location affords, pick up some local ingredients and head home to try your hand at cooking some South African dishes. Throw open the patio doors and enjoy a quiet meal as the sun sets over the maze of buildings below and watch Cape Town come to life.
