Nourishment

A nourishing diet is essential for academic success. That’s why Isa Residence collaborates with the renowned Feedem Group’s dietician to curate wholesome, healthy and homely nutritional meals.

Living in a hostel that provides meals can save students time and money, as they don’t have to worry about grocery shopping, cooking, and cleaning up after themselves. It also provides a sense of community and the opportunity to socialise with other students.

The dining hall and catering facilities for our students’ specific needs are provided and paid per meal for flexibility. Students can pre-book up to three meals daily or enjoy Grab & Go meals.

Location

Nestled gracefully on Piet Retief Street, the Stellenbosch Isa Private Ladies Residence perfectly captures the spirit of this vibrant student-centric town.

A mere 450 meters from our Isa Carstens® Academy in Stellenbosch and just a leisurely 1-kilometer stroll to the heart of Stellenbosch University’s Campus, the Residence enjoys a pivotal position within the town. Seamlessly woven into the thriving community, our residence finds itself within convenient walking distance of various essential amenities.

“Every year I spent at the Isa Residence; I learned something new about myself & made lifelong friends. If I could do it all over again, I would!”

Tyla Cooper – Somatology, from Cape Town

“I know its cliched to say, but Isa really is like a home for me. It’s where I go to unwind after a long day of classes, where I can drink a coffee and have deep conversations with roommates and friends until the early hours of the morning. It is where I grow and experience all that comes with that growth. Isa Residence provides a safe space for me to explore the world around us and go into adulthood with confidence.”

Milla Slabber – BSc Human Life Science, from Upington

“I strongly recommend our residence, especially to individuals who are far from home. You’ll appreciate the safety it provides, the chance to meet wonderful people who could become lifelong friends, the freedom to live on your terms, all within a secure haven for rest. Moreover, our exceptional staff and the fantastic location, conveniently close to all essential amenities, make the experience even more appealing.”
