Cape Town Lodge Hotel : Accomodation in the CBD

October 27, 2017 by SuitcasesandLattes Leave a Comment

Special occasions call for special activities. We believe that some occasions call for experiences more than gifts so we’ve made a habit of going away for our anniversary (Gold Reef City, Paternoster, Franschhoek, etc) and this year was no exception. Except that it was an exception. We were lazy, didn’t feel like going too far … [Read more…]

Langebaan accommodation: That time I stayed in a caravan

September 30, 2016 by SuitcasesandLattes 2 Comments

I saw a ‘holiday home‘ while looking for available Langebaan accommodation on Booking.com, for dirt cheap during peak season. It sounded too good to be true but for that price, it seemed worth the risk. Booking The money didn’t come straight off of my account. Instead, I got an email from the owner asking me to … [Read more…]

Gelukkie Accommodation & Venue, Paternoster

October 28, 2015 by SuitcasesandLattes 4 Comments

For our anniversary we decided we would skip the gifts and use the gift money for a vacay instead. After all, someone once said that the happiness from experiences outlasts the happiness from gifts (although both don’t hurt!). We weren’t out looking for a beach holiday, we wanted an adventure – somewhere neither of us … [Read more…]

Airbnb – A home away from home

January 7, 2015 by SuitcasesandLattes 8 Comments

When traveling internationally, I generally use booking.com for accommodation (with Trip Advisor in the background of course). After our decision to travel to Europe, I went clicking away on Booking.com only to realize how expensive a hotel room per night was. This was primarily attributed to the weak SA/EUR exchange rate. Desperately searching for cheaper … [Read more…]
