I wanted a location that was traditional, beautiful and with a sea-view.Having done some research in Cape Town over December in search of the "spot" Kalk Bay was the best option and I am delighted to tell you that all is going well, with abundant of renovations underway I am sure that "Mella's " is going to be a success.
