I initially booked to stay at Avanti for 7 days. I wasn't sure if I would stay in Cape Town for my entire 2 week holiday or spend the other week in Durban. I fell instantly in love with Cape Town and with Avanti. As soon as I entered my room (number 3 is the best in my opinion) I... More

I booked to stay 10 days but due to unforseen circumstances Had to cut my stay short But In the five days That I stayed there i found that the Hosts Johan and Maria were the most wonderfull and hospitable hosts and must also say that they bent over backwards to accomodate me (and i"m sure every guest) and nothing...

Maria and Johan were very welcoming upon our arrival. They made us feel at home. Our room was spacious and had everything we need including a balcony overlooking the sea. When you go to sleep you can hear the sound of the waves crashing just outside. The breakfast was scrumptious as Maria is an amazing cook and we also had... More

This was our first time in South Africa and we stayed at Avanti for five nights before heading out on a short road trip along to Port Elizabeth. Found Avanti through Trip Advisor and decided it sounded like just the place for us, quiet and personal. Couldn't have got it more right if we had tried. We had kept up... More

We stayed here in 2005.....I didn't know about TA when we went to Sth Africa but I use it now for every trip we take-so this review is very belated! I have to say that staying here was one of the highlights of our 3 week stay in SA. Johan was fantastic to us....especially as I got food poisoning from... More

Having spent 3 days on the Kruger and 4 days at Schellenborg (tasting wine) we decided that a few days on the seafront would be a perfect ending to our holiday. Through the front door, 200 yards downhill and you can watch the Atlantic rollers crashing against the sea wall.Jump on the circular bus which takes you to Docklands, the... More

The guest house is very well situated away from the noise of the city centre in a nice safe neighbourhood. Location is by the beach and the Waterfront mall is just a short bus ride away. It's perfect for travellers looking for a quiet quaint accommodation on a nice relaxing holiday. The hosts Johan and Maria made us feel very... More

Johan & Maria are excellent hosts!!! They spoiled us rotten during our 4 night stay. I still dream of that fig preserve I had there. The location is perfect, on a quiet street near the ocean in Bantry Bay. An easy walk to Clifton beach and near public transportation to the Waterfront if needed. The rooms are nice and comfy... More
