Whalehaven: Kalk Bay Apartment with Harbour Views

Kalk Bay is a small village clustered around a working harbour and close to 3 fabulous, white beaches and 3 world-class golf courses. It has narrow cobbled streets and small, independent shops selling clothing and homeware, coffee and ice cream. It's cheerful, colourful, and crammed with places to eat and drink really well, pretty inexpensively too. Walking paths take you up the mountain or to the tidal pools and beaches. Just Kalk Bay is a treat of a holiday! The space Whalehaven, a 76 sqm apartment, is situated in the heart of the village, close and convenient for every jaunt. It's been renovated with style and an eye for detail. It's a warm, welcoming space, with seriously impressive views of the sea from the front of the apartment, and mountains from the back. It has oak floors in the living room and marble tiles in the bathroom. The spacious kitchen is designed for real cooking, with a gas hob, granite work-tops and every appliance you require. The sitting and dining-room furniture is comfortable country-chic with a French corner cupboard housing the TV. There is a desk and chair at which to sit comfortably and continuous wi-fi allows you to work and stay in touch. Beds are made up with 2 down pillows per person, down duvets and crisp white linen The back verandah looks up to the mountain and is equipped with French garden furniture and a gas barbecue for relaxed outdoor wining and dining. A recently installed continuous power supply inverter and battery will ensure that the lights, TV, WiFi, and fridge/deep freeze always work, despite any electricity supply outages in the area. The power points in the walls, used for lamps or electrical gadgets, will not function during electricity outages, with the exception of two powerpoints in the bedroom which can be used to charge a computer and a mobile phone. Guest access Guests have access to the whole apartment and the veranda is for their private use. Other things to note A starter pack of the following is available to our guests: coffee, tea, sugar, milk, salt, pepper, dried herbs, tissues, roller towel, cleaning products, washing powder, and dishwasher tablets. The apartment is on the second floor of an Edwardian building. There are two flights of steps to get to the front door. Parking is on the street but it is free. At its worst, on a hot, sunny weekend in mid-summer, parking is available within a 5 minute walk. Generally, the walk is closer to 2 minutes! Regarding security, Kalk Bay is a Special Rates Area which means that we have extra cops on the beat. The village also has security cameras that are monitored 24/7. Security is therefore good but inevitably, not flawless.
