Our stay was wonderful, we love the space and the location of the house, as well as the interior. Great to go up the mountains via the back yard and walk to grotto beach. Would definitely go back!

The house is very well located. It was well maintained and clean. Five of us stayed. Everything was thought of and it was a very comfortable house. We felt like we were at home. Thank you so much for everything.

What an absolutely wonderful stay! The house feels more like a home when you stay and the views, both mountain and sea are exquisite! The house is perfectly equipped with everything you need and best of all for us super kid friendly! We loved everything about the home! We will be back!

We (as a large family group of 10) all thoroughly enjoyed our week long stay in Sue’s very special family holiday home. Large and spacious, with its fantastic location (at the base of the mountain/five minutes drive to popular beaches/the famous cliff walk as well as many great restaurants and shops that are only a short drive away), to the exquisite sea and mountain view’s from multiple large windows and balconies, to the beautiful decor (incl very comfy beds, quality linen and great shower heads), the open plan and well equipped kitchen and multiple eating and lounging areas as well as the fabulous outdoor veranda area with a wonderful splash pool, Weber braai and pizza oven…. This listing truly has it ALL! (including a newly renovated kids bedroom with two bunk beds as well). Tammy was a fantastic host (very responsive and helpful) and we would definitely return in a heartbeat. Thank you for creating and sharing this special listing with us all.

It was really fun getting to know the team during the project. They were all helpful in answering my questions and made me feel at ease. The design ended up being better than I could have envisioned!

By far the best team I've ever worked with. They truly understood the look I was going for and completely nailed it! I would highly recommend them as a company, you simply just won't find any better team!

Salient is by far the most astonishing WP theme out there! I literally could not be happier that I chose to buy your theme! Your regular updates and superb attention to detail blows me away every time I visit my new site!

I'm wondering why I never contacted these guys sooner! Seriously, they all have commendable talent in their respective fields and knocked my concept out of the ballpark. Thanks for an amazing experience!
