About the host
Hosted by Nadine
Media professional, academic and socio-cultural activist passionate about helping visiting academics and media professionals do their best work in South Africa's media and university capital by providing a home away from home with 24/7 owner support - before and during your stay.
Why they chose this property
This property was my own apartment when I lived and worked in Melville/Auckland Park, so I know it exceptionally well and I'm happy to share my knowledge to help you navigate your stay in South Africa.
What makes this property unique
Although this gated apartment block is situated in the University hub of Johannesburg, it is almost 98% occupied by Owner Residents - which means that you won't experience the typical student disturbances like late-night get-togethers or unruly noise.
The apartment's central location in trendy Melville puts you at the heart of South Africa's media, arts, cultural and academic hotspots.
With a WALK-SCORE OF 10 (my score ;) you can burn some calories while getting to restaurants or the local mall or even walk to campus.
OR hail a local taxi, catch an uber, or ride a tram - right outside our apartment to get around.
OR.... park your rental car with peace of mind in our designated undercover parking under the watchful eye of security guards on foot patrol 24/7.
