Krekwakwou

Krekwakwou is a Dutch slang word that translates to "just what I wanted." The hostess of the establishment originally came from Holland. It is located in Lakeside, a tranquil southern suburb of Cape Town, bordering the West Lake Golf Course and offering uninterrupted views towards Steenberg Mountain.

The self-contained apartment is part of the main house and features its own security system linked to a 24-hour armed response. It has a private entrance and safe parking. The large bedroom is equipped with either a comfortable king-size bed or two single beds, along with ample cupboard space. There is a spacious bathroom with a bath, shower, wash basin, and toilet. The open-plan lounge area includes a TV, a dining room table, and a well-fitted kitchenette.

The wind-protected, private patio invites guests to relax with a glass of wine at the end of the day, enjoying the peace of the mountains above and watching the golfers on the course. The self-catering unit is provided with complimentary basics such as sugar, salt, tea, coffee, and spices. It also offers DStv and broadband ADSL, a fan and heater, and linen and towels are provided. The apartment is serviced twice a week, and towels are changed every three days.

Guests are welcomed with a free bottle of wine and fresh fruits, and airport transfers or car rentals can be arranged upon prior request. The establishment is close to the False Bay beaches, Table Mountain National Park, shopping centers, and public transport. The beautiful route along the False Bay coastline towards Cape Point passes through the surfers' paradise of Muizenberg, the quaint St. James with its family-friendly tidal pool, Kalk Bay with its working fishing harbor and fascinating little shops, Fish Hoek (the ultimate beach for swimmers), and Simon's Town, which is the heart of the South African Navy with the penguin colony at Boulders Beach.
