Management of your second
home in Cape Town
Expert Care of Your Private Home in Cape Town
When you don’t want your second home to be a full-time concern, Stayscape’s private and flexible home-management service is here to take charge of your property’s needs and ensure you get the very best of its comforts.
For clients around the world Stayscape provides a comprehensive home-care service that covers the care and upkeep of property, and provides what you need to make a stay enjoyable and worry-free.
Keeping Your Private Home Safe and Ready For You
Whether you visit your second home for a reason, a season, or just a break, we’ll make sure your property is kept safe and maintained while you are away – and ready whenever you return. The bespoke service we provide you will be based on your exact requirements and delivered within a simple, flexible agreement, that is typically more cost-effective than a full-time estate manager.
That also means we’ll keep a careful eye on maintenance, servicing and physical threats that can start small and worsen, like leaks, mould and infestations.
Your home will also be monitored for problems prevalent in South Africa, such as fire, flood, water outages and the knock-on effects of power cuts. Naturally, we’ll also monitor and attend to alarm notifications and liaise with security services.
While such tasks are difficult to manage from afar, everything is simplified with our routine inspection program, that safeguards your home with regular attention and checks.

Ready When You Are
Not only are we there to protect your property while you are away, we can also prepare your home in advance of your visits.
Our base offering covers your arrival and preparation:
- Pre-arrival home inspection
- Owner preferences (cushions, flowers, personal items)
- Set-ups ready for your arrival (AC, Wi-Fi, pool temperature)
Ready When You Are
Knowing their vacation home is in good hands brings great peace of mind to our clients. But they also appreciate that we can assist them when they arrive in Cape Town and for the duration of their stay.
We understand you won’t always know long in advance that you’ll be visiting, or what your exact ad-hoc needs may be for your stay. That’s why we remain in hand to support you before your arrival and after.
