About this property

Mama Africa Welcomes you to Cape Town! Secure Spacious 2 bedroom apartment

Light and spacious classic flat with modern touches, suitable for 2 couples sharing, or a couple with 2 children. The main bedroom and lounge boasts sweeping views of magnificent Table Mountain. Centrally located in Upper Gardens, in walking distance of the upmarket Gardens Shopping Center and MyCiti Bus. It includes secure off-street parking too. It is mountain facing, therefore it's tranquil with no traffic noise.

The block in which the flat is situated was built in the 1970s, when they still made very spacious apartments. It has teak parquet flooring throughout. This flat consists of a kitchen, a bathroom, 2 bedrooms, a lounge (which is open to the kitchen) and a glassed-in balcony. There is also a dedicated undercover off-street parking space inside the complex grounds. The block has big verdant gardens to the back and to the front, with benches under the trees, a small stream and a BBQ (braai) spot.

The kitchen is modern with engineered stone countertops and lots of cupboards which are stocked with cutlery, crockery and lots of cooking utensils. The appliances consist of a big fridge, ceramic cooking hob, a microwave/convection combination oven, kettle and toaster. Note that there is no big traditional oven. The convection oven roasts and bakes like a normal oven would. There is also no dishwasher, but there is a double sink.

The renovated modern bathroom has a shower over a small bathtub. There is also a washing machine in the bathroom. For drying laundry there is a drying rack, or one can use the washing lines down stairs in the garden.

The lounge has classic furniture with a 6 seater dining room table, which is also a good place to do some work on your laptop. The leather couch is very comfortable, but not quite long enough for an adult to sleep on. There is also a breakfast counter with high chairs.

The main bedroom is furnished with French style classic furniture. The bed is an extra length queen size bed, so tall people can sleep more comfortably. It has an interleading door to the glassed in balcony. You can wake up and take in the magnificent view of Table Mountain from your bed.

The second bedroom has a queen size standard length bed and 2 cupboards.

The glassed-in balcony has an old school couch facing the mountain, from which you can enjoy watching the sun go down over Lion's Head.


In order to accommodate families with babies, we have a camping cot (pack-and-play), baby feeding chair (high chair), and a baby bath. We also have a single blow-up floor mattress to accommodate a fifth person. Please note that all these facilities are available on request only, since they are not stored on the premises. If you would like to avail yourself of these, please let us know upon booking. Please also note that our property is by no means child-proof, but we do welcome families who are ok with that.

Great experience staying at Babett’s apartment.
We had a wonderful experience staying at Babett’s apartment. The area is one of the safest in Cape Town. The apartment is just great. The two rooms and the living room are very spacious, well designed and carefully decorated,and the views from the apartment really amazing. Babett couldn’t have been more helpful with everything we asked her for. Great experience. Thanks again.

Great Apartment, Amazing views
Very conveniently situated close to the Gardens Shopping Centre, museums, the Castle and loads of great restaurants. Amazing views of the mountain from a very well fitted, clean, fully equipped and spacious apartment. The MyCiti bus terminal just across the road is another great thing about this apartment giving you easy access to many interesting areas of the city and various beaches. If you want to just relax, there is a great garden area at the apartment block or just a short stroll away is the Company's Garden which has a lot to see. I would highly recommend this apartment for its convenient location, easy access to transport and the overall spaciousness which is a big plus. Will definitely visit again.

Kiddy friendly with AWESOME Table Mountain Views
Staying here made our South African experience absolutely wonderful! It had everything I needed e.g. baby cot, washing machine, fast wifi and a big TV! The kids loved running around in the massive green gardens while we had a BBQ. Couldn't have wished for a better place to stay- clean and secure. Safe parking was great- I don't want to herd the little ones in the street! Will definitely come again!

Loved our stay here, everything was just right!
This is our accommodation of choice when we are more than 2 people in Cape Town. Been here many times, but always come back to it! We love the proximity to everything that we need. We love the light, and most particularly the view of the Mountain! We love gathering around the large dinner table and staring at the view! Believe me, it can't be beaten!
