Super freundliche Gastfamilie, ruhig und für Rückfragen immer da. Die Wohnung ist gut gelegen für alle Aktivitäten. Parken ist schon eine Herausforderung da es sehr steil ist aber am Anfang der Straße kein Problem.
Spotless, excellent facilities and great value for money.

“Modern and stylish furnishings, a very friendly and helpful host, and excellent communication. I felt very comfortable throughout the week!”
“The terrace is shaded throughout the day, but it’s beautifully and thoughtfully designed
Comfortable, clean, a home away from home. Cornelis and Roxanne are thoughtful hosts who go out of their way to accommodate guests. We highly recommend a stay here!
Clean and friendly host and staff.
Parking is an issue.
I had such a warm and lovely stay. Roxanne and Cornelis were so welcoming and made me feel right at home. The atmosphere was cozy, and their kindness made the experience even more special. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and friendly stay . I'll definitely be back again!
The place is located near restaurants and the promenade. It is a walking distance to V&A waterfront and the Mojo market. The room is very clean and has basic supplies to make one's stay comfortable. The hosts are very friendly and welcoming and always respond on time.

Very quiet area with very friendly hosts. Your accommodation is a guest room connected to the main house. It is very well equipped and very comfortable. There is zero road noise. I appreciated Cornelis providing me a plug convertor for my stay. Shower and internet was great. Excellent security. I will make it my first choice when I come back to Cape Town in 2026!
Everything here is minor so please don't let them distract you from an excellent stay. The tight check-in window was stressful so I'm uncertain if it was a mistake, a nice to have or I was an inconvenience to the family arriving at 9pm. It is a steep hill to park on and while I personally didn't have any problems with the rental car, the person parked next to me got broken in to. Probably best to just uber everywhere.
Peaceful,Private ,extremely comfortable , good Wi-Fi yet close to everything-great hosts as well.
Wonderful accommodation and amazing host family. I felt right at home.
How clean the room was and friendly the hosts were
We enjoyed our stay at On Barkley. The room is comfortable and well furnished. The kitchenette is useful for making tea and coffee and warming up store-bought meals. Everything is clean and modern, and the room is stylishly decorated, making it cosy. The location is excellent. It's a quiet street within walking distance or a short drive from the trendy cafes and restaurants in Sea Point. It's also easy to get to beaches like Clifton and Camps Bay.
The only tricky thing is parking space, but parking is always an issue in Cape Town.
Lovely little property. Perfect if staying in sea point and very nice hosts
Location was great in between mountains for hikes and the sea. The area was also very safe. The host Cornelis was very nice and accommodating and gave some great tips for restaurants in and out of Cape Town. Would definitely recommend staying here!
It was everything so warm and welcoming. Such a comfy bed, nice colors and design. Just a recommended place.
Clean, comfortable and relaxing
No dedicated kitchen.
No Breakfast offered
Would have liked to know upfront that Car parking is only in the Street
New, clean and comfortabel apartment. The owner is very friendly and can answer all of your questions about Cape Town. Also the area (Seapoint) is safe.
There is nothing not to like
Great location, lovely big bed, cute view of the ocean, nice little swim pool.
It was a very peaceful and quiet place.
I really enjoyed my stay here! It's a cozy room with a big bathroom in a recently renovated house. WIFI works well and you have access to a nice little terrace. The area is quiet but you can find everything you need within a short walking distance. Roxanne and Cornelis are very helpul and nice to be around. I would definitely recommend and always come back.
The room was tidy and very comfortable, it is also possible to use the house pool. Overall, the location is central, making it easy to walk during the day, and also cheap to go by uber during the night. It is close to Mojo Market and Seaside area, full of restaurants, bars and shops.
Everything was great
This is one of the best rooms I've had anywhere. 1. It's very cosy. The room looks very new and the view from outside is amazing as you can see the sea; 2. I's super clean, something I didn't account for before going to South Africa so that was a huge plus for me. It was clean when I arrived and in the week I stayed the room was fully cleaned again after a couple of days; 3. It's a great place to work (remotely). The Wi-Fi works perfectly and electricity is being generated so no troubles with loadshedding. You can sit at the desk or outside or alternate; 4. It's a very nice location. It's only a 7 min walk to the 'main street' with your supermarkets and other shops you need. Mojo Market is also around a 7 min walk, big recommendation to go there. Also if you want to go to Camps Bay or Waterfront, you're located in between those two; 5. It's very quiet. Although youre not far away from all the shops, it's very nice and quiet in the area the apartment is located so you can sleep very peacefully; 6. There was always room to park our car somewhere; 7. It has the facilities you need: a fridge, a closet, cutlery and tableware, a European plug socket converter, a beautiful shower and a tv in front of the bed with streaming services like Netflix, Prime Video, HBO. Normally I don't write reviews but this was a great stay I very much enjoyed and exceeded my expectations. Cornelis told me he just started renting out this room, that's the reason it only has a couple of reviews yet so take advantage of the availability it has now. If you're looking for a place to work remotely and/or stay at with your partner (or alone), you're definitely going to have a great time here. Cornelis is very nice, I've felt welcome from the start, thanks again for the nice stay.
