Glen Marais, a senior firefighter with Fire and Rescue, said that while it was impossible to know what had started the fire, it had probably been an accident, such as a candle falling over.
The fire left two families of four displaced and all their belongings destroyed.
Marais said no one was injured and the families were being cared for by the City's Disaster Management office.
Cape Argus photographer Cindy Waxa was at the scene and said the blaze had reached electric cables overhead, but it could not be established if the power supply had been affected.
