Our 2 bedroom self catering unit is 100m from the beach - unfortunately no sea view. The unit has 2 double bedrooms and full bathroom as well as shower and basin in main bedroom. The kitchen is fully equipped. Safe parking in court yard of building. The balcony has a braai facility - only charcoal fires. We do have free wifi and dstv, netflix etc.
We have several units in 3 different towns. I manage the bookings, guests, cleaning, marketing and purchases. This keeps me busy but I love my job. I keep on thinking of ways to make my guests stay unforgetable.
Melkbos is a small and safe town with lots of restaurants and a lovely beach. We are central and ideal for day trips to Cape Town, West Coast village, wine routes etc.
