Olive Branch

My place is close to supermarkets like Woolworths or Spar and also Gordon's Bay Beach, Strand or the Whale Route for your leisure activities. You’ll love my place because of the sea view, its tranquility, the garden, and its central location close to Cape Town Airport and the Winelands. The neighborhood is very quiet and peaceful. My place is very good for couples as well as solo adventurers and - if you don’t mind sharing one open space with everyone - even for small families (with kids).
