Our apartment is set on the edge of a beautiful wildlife reserve, so you may occasionally spot some of the local visitors — including baboons who wander down from the mountain. They’re curious, not dangerous, and will happily move along if left undisturbed. We’re fortunate to have a fantastic baboon ranger team who walks with them guides them back up the mountain. For your comfort, we simply recommend keeping doors and windows closed when you’re not in the room or apartment, and avoiding interaction with them.

The apartment is an absolute dream. It is only important that you read the guide well and do not forget to deactivate the alarm system. That's what happened to us on arrival. The fact is, however, that the alarm works perfectly😂. The view is incredibly beautiful, you drive 3 minutes to the next mall and it is still secluded enough that you have it very quiet. In addition, the apartment is completely cleaned once a week. All in all, perfect🙂.

From the moment we walked into the place, we felt as if we were home. The pictures do not do this property justice. Luv the hardwood floors, comfy couches in the main living area, and the view from the patio and bedroom are incredible. A very unique property !! We will be returning! Thank you for an incredible stay :)
