Fantastic stay. Not the first time and definitely not the last time. Very homely and was lucky to be staying for a longer time this year. Feels like home away from home

Stayed at Waterfront Vertigo apartment for 3 nights. The apartment is beautifully done, with everything you need for a comfortable stay, from DSTV, fully equipped kitchen, with Dishwasher, washing machine & tumble dryer, to under floor heating, which is very nice during Cape Town's cold winter. Its location is perfect, located on the Waterfront canals, with easy access to the V&A Waterfront. Would definitely return to Waterfront Vertigo Apartments, and will highly recommend this apartment.

I've been at Waterfront Vertigo (Juliette 109) with my husband and my 7 years daughter for 3 nights. This is a super location to visit Cape Town. You are in a residential area (in front of One and Only). In 5-10 minutes walk it's possible (and safe) to visit the V&A waterfront with shops and restaurants. There is a private parking. The apartment is well equipped with all electrical appliances. There is a living room (with a sofa that become a bed) with the kitchen, a double bedroom with bathroom (the bathroom door is crystal clear.... ) and a wonderful terrace overlooking the marina. The directions to the property were clear

Thank you, Dominique, for a very enjoyable stay. The apartment is very comfortable with everything you need and is conveniently located to the waterfront restaurants, shops and attractions. It is in a very attractive, peaceful and secure location. Everyone we have met here has been very polite and helpful. The apartment also has a very convenient parking space almost to the door which makes baggage transfer much easier. We found it very easy to get around Cape Town and enjoyed our drive around the Cape and also to the wine growing region. Highly recommend a stay here,. Perfect!

A perfect location for visiting Cape Town. 10 minutes walk to Waterfront and restaurant area. Good leisure facilites nearby, such as swimmingpool(s)and fitness senter. Easy access to the appartment, and you feel very secure staying there with locked gates and both canal boat patrolling and walking security personell.This was our second stay here, and we will be back again!

Hi Dominique, Thanks again for a great stay in the Waterfront in a great appartment! Not the first time, be sure not the last time! Everything possible, breakfast in the fridge and a bottle of wine, good bed, clean, and all that things makes it better then the other appartments! See you again, Harry and Yvonne The Netherlands

A spacious and very well equipped apartment, ideal for singles or couples. There is a sofa bed in the living area so a group of 3 or 4 could be accommodated if sharing a bathroom is acceptable. For those worried about safety & security, the whole estate is virtually inpenetratable without the supplied access passes. There is a lovely pool (plenty of sun loungers) and gym available for guest use on payment of a very modest supplement (SaR 150 at time of writing). The location is excellent. If you want the tourist trap that is the V & A Waterfront then it's just a short walk away. The more edgy (and far more interesting) parts of the city are easily walkable in the opposite direction. Dominique, the owner, is lovely and nothing was too much trouble. I can't recommend this apartment highly enough for a stay in this wonderful city.

An apartment perfectly situated on the V and a Waterfront but far enough away to make it a peaceful experience. Within walking distance of the centre of Cape Town and easily accessible to most attractions by car. The owner, Dominique, greeted us with lots of useful info re the use of the flat and places to visit. The accomodation is perfect for 2 people and is well equipped for eating in. We found the washing machine and tumble drier a real bonus particularly as we had been travelling for 2 weeks already. A great place to stay.

My husband, daughter & myself spent 8 nights in Dominiques one bed apartment. My daughter slept in the lounge on the sleeper couch, which she found very comfortable. We felt very safe in the environment, with everything close at hand. The apartment was clean & well equipped, Dominique was very kind & helpful during our stay & we will definitely call on her again when we next visit this beautiful city!

My family and I had just spent the most wonderful 2 weeks travelling around South africa. Hence, we were somewhat reluctant to head back into the stress and strains of 'city living'. However, there were no stresses and strains to be had. Everything in Waterfront Vertigo was absolutely perfect. Check-in with Dominique was seamless. She was incredibly helpful, pleasant, clear and friendly. Everything in the flat(and believe me, although it pains me to admit it,I can be a bit of a princess) was perfect. It was spotless, beautifully decorated, everything was logically arranged, the bed was so,so comfortable, every appliance worked etc, etc). There were some incredibly thoughtful little touches, for example, Domique had left us some shopping in the fridge and a bottle of lovely wine. There was also a Cape Town Time Out magazine so we could do a little reseach. Externally, the location was also perfect. Walking distance to oddles and oddles of great bars and restaurants. Fantastic all round!! I loved this place...

This is a superbly located apartment in gated complex adjacent to Cape Grace Hotel and walking distance to Waterfront. In addition to location, has excellent gym facilities and pool and landscaping in the well-maintained complex is great. Our apartment was snug for family of 4, but we wanted this since we have a number of shared items in our luggage. This would be an ideal size for a couple. All furnishings, electrical appliances, and TV were in excellent working order. My husband left an electric plug for conversion to N. American plug for our electronic tools, which include a couple of cameras, so there was a little bit of panic when we realized that the plugs in S. Africa are not the same as UK. All in all, an excellent end to 2 weeks on safari in Botswana and visit to Vic Falls

This is a gorgeous, modern flat situated in the V&A; Waterfront complex. In a quiet apartment block, ideally located close to all the waterfront bars, restaurants and shops. Fully equipped (washer and dryer, dishwasher, cooking facilities and implements) and very comfortable. Also access to gym/pool is great. We felt very at home during our four days in Cape Town. Many thanks to Dominique who really looked after us during our stay.

This was really a weekend with a difference. Having stayed at many of the top Cape Town hotels, this apartment was such a refreshing difference -- location, space, comfort and every modern convenience (including all Dstv channels). Dominique is a fantastic host!
