Great location in a quiet residential area, easy walking distance to the sea front, very short walk to bars and good restaurants, and short uber ride to the waterfront area. Uber in Cape Town is fab and super cheap! The room( and indeed the whole guest house) was very clean and nicely decorated, our room had a lovely large shower and a useable balcony overlooking the beautiful garden and pool. Breakfast was served outside in a serene courtyard area, with hot breakfasts cooked on request, with a really high quality continental style buffet each morning, changing daily. The hosts are fabulous, genuinely lovely guys who are passionate about their guesthouse and South Africa. There is a reasonable size pool area with lots of sun loungers and a few tables and chairs that we didnt get a chance to use, but other guests spent time there and it looked very inviting. There are also a couple of car parking spaces off the road. We thoroughly recommend this gem to you for all the above reasons... and we can't wait to go back.…
We very much enjoyed our stay and Ralf and Stefan are perfect hosts. The accommodation is spotlessly clean and very, very comfortable. A wide range of top quality fresh, or cooked produce is available for breakfast, which can be taken on the patio, or inside. You can relax in, or by the pool, which it located within the private walled garden. We felt the area was quite safe and it is a 40 or 50 minute walk to the Waterfront. Alternatively you can jump on the hop on bus at the stop approx 200m away on the sea front. There are some very good restaurants nearby and we were happy to walk back to the accommodation late at night. Ralf was extremely helpful making various bookings on our behalf as we were not using our phones in SA. Overall, we had a fabulous 4 nights at AfricanHome and enjoyed various conversations with other guests and Stefan and Ralf. We hope to be back!…
We occupied the cottage and enjoyed being apart from the main building which nevertheless deserve more than a look. Ralf and Stephan are perfect hosts.The breakfasts are somptuous with a wide choice of hot and cold foods. Seapoint is an excellent base to explore Cape Town. Around Africanhome, many restaurants are available.
We stayed with Ralf and Stefan over the busy new year period and had a fantastic stay. It’s a little oasis in the middle of the lively Sea Point area and within easy reach of everywhere else worth visiting in and around the City . Both hosts were also really accommodating especially at breakfast where my fussy vegetarian partner was concerned sorting out little non meat treats for him every day. They even helped with organising some of our trips getting us our own driver as well which was fantastic too. Well definitely be coming back here so we’ll some Ralf and Stefan ..(and the lovely Milka the cat) Maria and Graeme
This was our 4th time staying at African Home and we can’t wait to go back again. Ralf and Stephan are perfect hosts and the staff could not do more for their guests. The breakfasts are delicious with a wide choice of hot and cold foods. Seapoint is great as a base to explore Cape Town and Ralf is so informative and helpful in booking day trips to wineries, Penninsula etc. If you like high quality, personal service then you can’t go wrong with African Home.
We were with Ralph and Stefan for six days and they were the best hosts we ever had. The accommodation is very central, restaurants supermarkets, the ocean and the bus stations are within two to five minutes walking distance. The rooms are lovingly furnished and very clean, breakfast is wonderful and our dinner together on the terrasse will be unforgetable. We will definitely come back and are already looking forward to it. Steffi & Tommi
it is a beautiful Guesthouse. We will come again after 2018 + 2019. Breakfast was very good and every day a surprise. We felt so comfortable: Ralf and Stephan are superb hosts, Our room was perfect. Thank you Stephan + Ralf,you made our holidas special. Lots of love Maritta und Herbert
it is so beautiful location and so nice host people. We felt so comfortable from day 1. all our wishes were immediately fulfilled. And breakfast is served so lovingly. we will come again for sure :-) Lots of love, Uschi and Bruno
Can’t think of anything that could be better. There was so much for breakfast, that I had always problems to decide what to eat first. During my visit there I had to move into another room. Both rooms were so comfortable. I prefers „The Cottage“, it‘s more cosy. Thank you Stephan and Ralf! You made my holidays special. Hoping to come back soon.
This was our 3rd stay at African Home in consecutive years and we've already booked to go back next year. Ralf and Stephan are superb hosts - welcoming, attentive but not intrusive, and quick to offer help and advice. As ever, the breakfasts were worth the visit alone, and the venue is a quiet oasis from the bustle of Cape Town. There's a small fridge in each room, and a safe. The beds and linen are very comfortable. Aircon is in the cottage only, but while nice, it's not an essential as the temperatures are seldom very hot when we visit. Sea Point itself is very safe and has a good choice of restaurants, all within easy walking distance. Ralf also organised day trips for us to Stellenbosch, wineries and the peninsula. Just super and we couldn't recommend it highly enough for anyone seeking a bit of personality, quirkiness, and genuine African hospitality.…
