Chapman's Peak is 15 km from the guest house, while Kirstenbosch National Botanical Garden is 21 km from the property. The nearest airport is Cape Town International Airport, 27 km from The Dragon Tree Guesthouse.

At the conclusion of our three-week journey in South Africa, we chose to stay here. In fact, we also started our trip with a stay here, and we were delighted to have booked it for the finale of our road trip. Jean, the host, is truly wonderful, welcoming us as if we were old friends. The space is tastefully decorated, and the view from the front window is breathtaking. The location is ideal, situated near the top of the roads in Kalk Bay. While it involves a few steps, the delectable food in Kalk Bay made the ascent more than worthwhile.

    Great location. Apartment had everything we needed and was very comfortable. It was decorated very thoughtfully. There were some nice touches like teabags and sugar in the apartment for us when we got there. Security was very good as well. The host was very thoughtful and sent us detailed information of how to get there and how to get to the airport on our way home. We were very happy with it. I've seen other reviews comment on the noise from Cape to Cuba but we didn't hear any noise at all and slept well there.
