  Flawless flat. Flawless town. Flawless holiday.

  Left on 04/30/2013 for a stay in April 2013
  
  

  Normally with these things you can find some fault in a holiday apartment/hotel. For once I can truly say I found absolutely nothing to complain about, not a single thing.
  
  For tourists, particularly travelling with families to Cape Town, Hout bay is an undiscovered gem. It's quiet and community led, but beautiful beyond belief. What a perfect place to have such a perfect apartment. I brought my wife, baby and parents over to stay in this stunning apartment.
  
  It was spacious and clean, filled with everything we could ever need for braais on the massive balcony overlooking the incredible bay. The decor is stylish and modern, but also comfortable and warm. My wife and I went to be every night and woke up every day with the sound of waves crashing.
  
  Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful too. Plus, everything you need is right there. From trendy restaurants to rustic pubs and quirky art shops, the surrounding village was awesome. Frank;y I didn't feel the need to move far from the flat, although we did venture into town a lot.
  
  Still, the beach is gorgeous and white and the sea a heavenly blue, all encased in dramatic green coves. Apartment 26 was right in the middle, offering spectacular views and sounds.
  
  I guess if I do have a gripe it's this: I had to go back to London at the end of the holiday!

  Lovely apartment with magical view

  Left on 11/01/2012 for a stay in October 2012
  
  

  We have just had a wonderful 5 nights at no 26 and highly recommend it. Jeanne was very helpful with our last minute booking and we found the apartment very well equipped. We were with our two year old twins who loved the heated pool and, while we did have to be careful of the balcony, the place was perfect for young kids. Extras like the beach towels were really appreciated and hubby loved the full cable tv package. The only minor drawback was that we only seemed to get wi-fi reception right by the front door. The view really is wonderful, it's an incredibly relaxing place to stay.
  
  The block is great too and is close to take outs, a cafe for morning coffee, shops and lovely restaurants. I really can't recommend it highly enough.

  Experience the best of Hout Bay

  Left on 10/28/2012 for a stay in October 2012
  
  

  Our first impression of this perfectly situated holiday apartment was that the entrance and centre-court with lush garden had a tropical flavour! On entering the apartment, one is met with a feeling of spaciousness which is complemented by tasteful modern decor and exquisite views of the sea and mountains from the entire living area and main bedroom. The twinkling of lights seen from the balcony after dusk turns the bay into a fairyland. The attractiveness, comfort and cleanliness of the bedrooms and bathrooms places this apartment in a class of its own. The kitchen is well-appointed making self-catering a pleasurable experience. However, a large number of restaurants and shops are within a few minutes walk. The beach is wihin a stones-throw from the balcony. We highly recommend apartment 26 The Village, Hout Bay as holiday accommodation.
