What a way to kick off the New Year: dk villas’ three luxury rental properties (two in Hout Bay, one in Dwarskersbos, West Coast) have triumphed on Booking.com’s annual Traveller Review Awards 2021, scoring a 9.9, 9.6, and 9.5 for our three luxury properties!
dk villas Harbour View, Hout Bay
dk villas’ self-catering apartment at Harbour View was rated a stratospheric 9.9 out of 10.
This three-bedroom, two-bathroom masterpiece offers guests a seamless blend of luxurious furnishings, high-end electronics and appliances, gorgeous views, and home-style convenience. It has a generous and fully kitted out modern kitchen and state-of-the-art appliances such as SMEG washing machine, tumble dryer, and dishwasher.
The bedrooms are the epitome of oases with their soft colour palettes, natural textures, Egyptian cotton bedding, and designer room fragrances; and a stylish open-plan lounge and dining area seating eight guests features a sophisticated entertainment system, large TV (DSTV), and free Wi-Fi.
dk villas’ Harbour View property has 24-hour camera security, electric fencing, and a secure undercover parking bay and is conveniently located a stone’s throw from Hout Bay’s beach, shopping, restaurants, and bars.
dk villas The Boardwalk, Hout Bay
Located on the opposite side of the valley, our trendy, modern, fully furnished and spacious self-catering apartment at The Boardwalk scored an impressive 9.6 out of 10.
There isn’t a modern amenity or luxury that isn’t represented in this trendy two bedroom, two-bathroom apartment, with all furnishings, appliances, and electronics being sourced from high-end manufacturers. The comfortable lounge area has a large television (DSTV package included), there is a generous dining room seating six people, a fully equipped kitchen complete with SMEG appliances, and free Wi-Fi throughout.
dk villas Boardwalk property also features safe basement parking, two bathrooms, and two bedrooms with built-in cupboards, block-out curtains and blinds, and luxuriously comfy beds dressed in Egyptian cotton. While the property is selfcatering, we ensure that guests have everything they need to enjoy their stay, from high quality towels and designer toiletries (soap, cream, shampoo) to milk, tea and coffee, and even a bottle of bubbly!
dk villas Skilliepark beach cottage, Dwarskersbos
And finally, dk villas in Skilliepark, Dwarskersbos (West Coast) scored a stunning 9.5 out of 10.
This two-bedroom beach cottage is perfectly positioned near the beach to allow guests front-row seats to the sunset. And with a sheltered indoor braai area with eight-seater table and wrap-around windows, the show can be enjoyed irrespective of the season. Inside, the cottage is decidedly chic and beach-themed with an open plan double volume living room and fully kitted-out kitchen that includes high-end appliances, a coffee and tea-making station, as well as heaps of storage space.
dk villas at Skilliepark is a two bedroom, two-bathroom apartment that is flush with everything one could possibly want and need to enjoy a luxurious stay in the fairly remote coastal village of Dwarskersbos. This includes complimentary Wi-Fi, an enormous flat screen TV with DSTV, and Egyptian cotton towels and sheets so soft your biggest challenge will be getting out of bed in the morning!
We are just so pleased that all of the thought, effort, and heart we pour into our properties have been appreciated by our Booking.com guests. And the cherry on the pie were the following glowing comments from Booking.com President and CEO, Glenn Fogel:
“Along with so many other challenges, 2020 was a year with limited opportunities for travel. That meant that the trips your guests managed to take mattered more to them than ever. And you rose to the occasion. The exceptional review scores you earned consistently over the last year show just how much your guests appreciate everything you do for them. And we appreciate it too.”
We’re also proud to announce the launch of our FOURTH luxury apartment “RivervieW” in February 2021 so we hope our guests feel as highly about our new baby as they do about our more established properties!
What is the Traveller Review Awards all about?
The Booking.com Traveller Review Awards is an annual appreciation programme that recognises partners for their exceptional hospitality, as evidenced in the review scores left by travellers after their stay or experience.
The 2021 edition review score is based on the average score of all guest reviews published on the Booking.com website and app between 30th October 2018 and 30th October 2020. Not only did dk villas’ three properties make the Traveller Review Awards list for 2021 but we absolutely knocked it out of the park with a scoring not even we could have anticipated: 9.9, 9.6, and 9.5 out of 10.
