Enjoy a peaceful stay at Say Shells in our ground floor unit, quiet, secure complex with small garden, located just 1km from the Blouberg Beach and a few minutes away from restaurants and shops.. As you walk through the front door you are greeted with the open plan kitchen / lounge which is fully equipment equipped. The lounge has a convenient fold out sleeper couch with an adjustable table to work off, use the smart TV with free unlimited wifi allowing you to access Free Netflix and other services. The bedroom opens up onto a sunny outside area to braai and is equipped with a kettle braai, 4 seater bench and umbrella for those hot summer days with a small view of Table Mountain. The bedroom has a queen size bed with air-conditioner, black out roller blinds and ensuite bathroom , shower , toilet and basin. The ideal central location is close to the Bayside Mall, Table View Mall and about 16km to Cape Town City Centre itself. There are plently of activities to do besides the beach, being just a few minutes drive from Wine Farms , Hiking Trails , Mountain biking trails. Say Shells is ideal for the single professional or couples with a small child and the best part is, we are pet friendly , allowing 1 small dog to join you on your holiday. Please be respectful to other home-owners as this is a quiet complex so pets are with permission only.
We are Helen and Mark and we welcome you to the Say Shells. We’re beyond excited to have you! We have been a couple for 18 years and have relocated from Kwa-Zulu Natal province. We both work from home and Helen runs an I.T company remotely and Mark is a real estate agent in the area. We reside in the area of Blouberg and are just a few minutes away. We are easy going people who loves , hiking, running, surfing and are passionate about animals. We both love connecting with people and love sharing and hearing stories of your travels and adventures. And on that note ; Wherever you go, go with all your heart.; Confucius Have a wonderful stay.
Blouberg lies on the west coast of Table Bay and a relaxed 20-minute drive from Cape Town city centre. Bloubergstrand beach gives a wonderful view of the city, and it is from here that the perfect postcard pictures of CapeTown with Table Mountain from South Africa in the background is often taken.
