About this property

Deluxe Apartment in De Waterkant. WiFi included

This designer apartment has been newly transformed to take full advantage of the fabulous large balcony that transforms the living space.

Facing north, this private apartment on the 2nd floor of The Rockwell is protected from the Cape Town winds and is lovely and sunny in winter, yet cool and eternally liveable in the summer. With a Balinese divan and a dining table outside, this apartment is all about making the most of Cape Town and the outdoors.

The air-conditioned interior was designed by a renowned interior designer with a retro feel. It complements the Rockwell’s 1900s New York inspired architecture. The retro design makes full use of the interior space and flows easily into the protected balcony area. There are nice views across the De Waterkant area to the harbour and Cape Town Stadium.

There is a full kitchen and a washer and dryer to provide all the conveniences of home. The apartment also has an espresso machine and an ipod/iphone docking station.

The Rockwell complex was inspired by the early 1900s architecture of Manhattan, and is surrounded by delightful sidewalk restaurants, bars, art galleries and quaint boutique shops. The complex has a stunning seven story interior atrium and luxurious fittings throughout. It also boasts a gym and an indoor, heated pool.

De Waterkant is the trendiest neighbourhood in Cape Town and one of the most exclusive. The apartment enjoys an enviable location in the heart of the city without actually being in the CBD (which virtually closes down on weekends). From the apartment, you can easily walk to most major attractions of Cape Town. The CBD is just a couple of blocks, The V&A Waterfront (shops, restaurants, bars, coffee shops and Robben Island) is only minutes away, and there's an excellent supermarket across the road.
The CTICC (Convention Centre) is nearby. You can easily walk to the new Cape Town Stadium and Cape Quarter’s lively restaurant and café scene is just one block away.

If you have a car, the apartment has an assigned, underground secure car parking space with lift access into the building. Security is of the highest standard at the Rockwell with 24hr security.

This privately owned apartment is managed by a high-end corporate agency who only deal with luxury rentals. They will meet all guests on arrival at The Rockwell and do all possible to ensure your stay in Cape Town is amazing. They also provide a complimentary weekly housekeeping service.

This apartment has been oficially graded as 4-star by the Tourism Grading Council of South Africa.

WiFi is included. It's fast, fibre internet access.

I'm more than happy to offer guests tips on the area and can recommend some amazing restaurants (that you'll need to book ahead for).


* Please note that this is a private residence in The Rockwell building and is not part of The Rockwell All Suites Hotel & Apartments. As a private resident you are invited to use the pool, gym and restaurant and bar, but bills cannot be charged to the room.

* Services like room service, a daily maid, bellboy and luggage storage are for hotel guests only.

Topappartement op toplocatie
Wederom 5 weken genoten van het wonen en leven in Kaapstad. Een betere plek om dat te ervaren in dit mooie, praktische appartement is er niet! Lees onze verdere ervaringen van vorig jaar en je weet waarom.

Prachtig, volledig ingericht appartement in een gezellige, veilige wijk van Kaapstad.
Heerlijk appartement, waar we 5 weken hebben genoten van Kaapstad en omgeving. Het appartement ligt een gezellige, veilige wijk van Kaapstad. Binnen een paar minuten ben je bij een mooi winkelcentrum met goede super en leuke eetgelegenheden. De bushalte is om de hoek, in een kwartiertje loop je naar het centrum van Kaapstad of Waterfront. Een aanrader voor iedereen die Kaapstad wil leren kennen!

Third stay with Jenny
This is our third time staying at the Rockwell in one of Jenny’s property. And, as usual, it was perfect! The location of the Rockwell could not be better. Jenny’s communication was quick, informative and accurate. The meeting for key exchange was no hassles and no wait. And the apartment is a great apartment. Can’t say enough good things about this and we will be using the Rockwell whenever we visit Cape Town if it is available.

Lovely, well speced and convenient
This is a lovely clean well appointed apartment that is in the perfect location for a Cape Town trip. It very convenient to get around the CBD and it has a number of great restaurants in the building and plenty of options a short walk away. I would highly recommend this apartment and I will definitely be a regular guest.

Fantastic Apartment, central for everything in Cap
Stayed in the apartment for 4 nights. Apartment immaculate, well maintained and furnished. Owner and Managing agents kept us well informed and provided all necessary information. Apartment is within 5 to 10 minutes safe walking distance to the V&A waterfront (if you like great Sushi try the Willoughby's 5X5). Although the apartment has safe parking, Cape Town now has Uber which we used extensively, went to Table Mountain in Uber, went to Camps Bay in Uber! Because of the great central location of the property an Uber was never more than 4 mins away and was very cheap. Highly Recommended Stay.

About the host

Hiya
I'm an Australian girl who had been coming to South Africa since 1994 for many, many trips. Finally decided that I might like to spend some more time here. I figured a year maybe. But that was more almost 8 yrs ago :)

When in CT, I like to take advantage of the awesome food and wine, and the outdoorsy lifestyle which is so like my hometown (Sydney). The beaches are beautiful (but the water is way too cold for me), and there are some stunning drives nearby.

Other than that, I love to grab my tent and pop off and explore Southern Africa. (Namibia is gorgeous, Kgalagadi is my favourite area and Zambia is on the bucket list.

I love it when people come to South Africa and Cape Town (especially for the 1st time) and are 'converted'. They're a little dubious before their trip... but then they always get slammed by the "Africa bug" and are hooked.

Why they chose this property

I purposely chose De Waterkant (and especially The Rockwell) as it has such an awesome location.

As a foreign girl on my own, I was a little anxious at first. But there are so many great cafes, shops, restaurants, bars etc within a safe walking distance - that this was perfect. And the Spar (supermarket) across the road is fantastic.

I've had this apartment since 2009, but have since bought 2 others in the building (in 2013). I didn't even consider anywhere else!

I had a great time doing them up, playing with the décor and getting them right for my guests... with things that I would like in my home.

What makes this property unique

Promise the apartments are really great. And you just can't beat the location.

I use a property management company who are extremely professional. So even if I'm not in town, you'll have someone 'on call' 24/7.

I have a little 'scribble doc' with loads of the things that I like to do in and around CT. I usually just send it to friends coming over - but I'll happily share it with you. It's just a mix of touristy and local things that I like to do. It might give you a few ideas of things to do.
