Tranquil Towers

If you’re looking for a convenient retreat to return to after long days exploring Cape Town and beyond, this Century City apartment offers up all you need. Stylish decor meets with fantastic facilities, including a shared swimming pool and braai area, so you’ll have all you need for a home-from-home stay. It’s also in a great location for exploring both Century City, the beach, and the heart of Cape Town.

We recommend starting each morning with a coffee on your private balcony, while you wait for the sun to come up. Cook up a scrummy South African breakfast of maize porridge and tuck in on your grand dining set. As the heat rises, head down to the communal pool for a swim and a splash. Head out to explore Century City, and find a huge variety of classy cafes, bars and restaurants, or head to the beach and enjoy a cocktail while you gaze out over the turquoise waves. When you return, fire up the barbecue in the shared braai area and cook up some chicken wings, or head up to your flat to get cosy on the sofa with a glass of wine.
