Absolutely beautiful terraced house with a spectacular view over False Bay. My friends and I were so comfortable and cosy - never mind the wonderful welcome from both Karen & John. Thank you both so much 😊

Had everything we needed. Stairs close by leads to main road with all of the restaurants and tourist areas close by. Morning coffees on the balcony/stoep while listening to the hustle and bustle of the navy facilities and looking out onto the amazing view, was definitely the highlight of our stay.

“Beautiful views”
Karen and John were very welcoming, we felt at home and the view was stunning. The apartment was also very well equipped. We were lucky that the weather was really good so our view accross the harbour was outstanding. Will definitely recommend Living Waters no 1

“Brilliant for families, great view and facilities.”
The view (especially from the bedroom) and the family friendly facilities including lots of washrooms, air fryer and washing machine. This made it so much easier with the children. Prime location close to boulders and harbour view mall to stock up. It was nice to meet the host and learn about her sailing adventures.
