Location and Transport
Olive Cottage is in Constantia, a quiet suburb of Cape Town, about 20 km from Cape Town International Airport. Constantia Village is a short walk away, and the property is close to the highway and main routes, so guests can get to Cape Town's attractions and the peninsula quickly. Free street parking is available, including accessible parking, and CCTV cameras plus a security guard at the top of the road monitor the outside.
Services and Hosts
The hosts speak English and Italian and handle check-in directly. Communication is easy, and they can provide local recommendations. The apartment offers free WiFi, heating, a washing machine, ironing service, and board games. On arrival, guests get drinks, snacks, and rusks.

“Staying here felt like stepping into a thoughtfully curated sanctuary; the attention to detail in its luxurious appointments and the seamless blend of privacy with host availability created a genuinely restorative atmosphere. Its quiet, upscale setting offers easy reach to local amenities and attractions, making it a well-positioned retreat. The comfortable, design-forward interiors and beautiful garden spaces confirm this is a place one can easily settle into and wish to return to.”
