Feel at home at da Heim Guesthouse during your stay in Cape Town. Located directly at the beach of the Table Bay. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city you can nevertheless reach the Central Business District in only 15 min by car. Enjoy the endless beaches or hang out in the garden and have a swim in the 25m heated swimming pool.
I started working at da Heim Guesthouse in February 2014 after completing my tourism and practical studies in Stellenbosch. I can speak 3 languages. I am passionate about the outdoors, the beach, sports and people. I consider myself lucky to manage a place with a wonderful team.
Sunset Beach is a lovely part of Cape Town. We are only 50m from the beach where you have a spectacular view of Table Mountain. Our armed response system (Crime Watch) is very efficient, making it a safe area to live in. Surfing, windsurfing & kitesurfing are the most common water sports in the area. Other popular sports include golfing, hiking, mountain biking, tennis & swimming.
