The Apartments
What it actually feels like to stay
The table tells you the facts. Here’s the experience.
Big Bay · 1 Bed
Big Bay is one of those places where the day just organises itself — beach in the morning, braai on the terrace in the evening, and everything in between taken care of. The flat is compact and well set up: good bed, full kitchen, fast WiFi, and a Checkers downstairs for when you’d rather cook than go out. And when the wanderlust kicks in, you’re a short Uber from Cape Town Central, the Waterfront, or a afternoon tasting in the Durbanville wine valley. No car? No problem. Just Uber there.
Facilities
private barbecue terrace
Fast Wi-Fi
Supermarket in the building
full kitchen
2 covered parking bays
Smart TV & streaming services
Blobergstrand · 2 Bed
The view is the first thing people mention — Table Mountain, straight ahead, every time you look up from the couch. But the apartment earns its keep beyond that: two proper bedrooms, two bathrooms, a full kitchen, and enough living space to actually relax in. The beach is a short walk. And when the group is ready to move, you’re well placed for a wine farm afternoon in Durbanville, a morning in the Cape Town CBD, or a full day down the Peninsula..
