We absolutely love the views over the ocean from this home's communal pool deck. There's a gym for your daily workout and a sky bar, restaurant, lounge, entertainment hub, barbecue area and boutique here, too. The shared facilities are excellent, we have to say. There are more city views and sea glimpses to enjoy from this apartment's private wraparound balcony. Another feature we love is that both bedrooms open onto the terrace and have en-suites. We haven't mentioned the location yet. Well, you'll be near the popular Sea Point Promenade, while the V&A Waterfront is a five to ten-minute drive away.

This exquisite glass house has a wrap-around private terrace leading to a shared 25-metre lap pool set amid lavender, olive, and pine trees. We love the open-plan living space with its floor-to-ceiling windows offering views over the garden and the mountains beyond. The studio-style bedroom opens out onto the terrace and the glass-roofed bathroom lets light flood in. The location here is great too – it’s just a short walk from the Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens. Cape Town is a short drive away and some of the area’s stunning beaches can be reached by car in just over twenty minutes.

The Lavender Cottage

Bathrobes

Access to Beach

Overlooking one of South Africa’s most loved beaches, this home makes the perfect setting for a breezy coastal getaway. Wake up to beautiful views and savour the feeling of the fresh Southern Atlantic air from the deck. There’s a barbecue for alfresco dining and your host is on hand to help organise extras like a private chef and catering. All three of the bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms as well as access to the outside. Plus, you’ll be in the ideal spot for massage treatments, yoga sessions, surf lessons as well as hiking along this beautiful stretch of Cape Town. 


Waterfront Breeze

Located in a prime spot in the very heart of Sea Point, just a sunny stroll away from Queen's Beach and Sea Point Pavilion, this apartment is all set to provide a smart and stylish base for happy holidays exploring Cape Town. Filled with natural light thanks to its floor-to-ceiling windows, this home exudes executive elegance, with plush soft furnishings and contemporary design touches. The outdoor space may be a little on the small side, but we still think it makes a lovely place to sit and enjoy your morning coffee on a summer morning. There's also a shared swimming pool on the complex.

Pool House

Stair Gates

Nestled in the spellbinding suburb of Bishopscourt, this villa makes an impressive first impression by blending elegance and eclectic African pieces by local artists. The patio – complete with a swimming pool and ample outdoor seating – overlooks some of the mountains that make the mother city special, and those vistas stay mostly within view thanks to the architecture and large windows. With a private tennis court, gym, games room, and cinema, there’s plenty to occupy. The beach is a short drive away, and so is the golf course, but it’s Kirstenbosch Botanical Garden that's a must for any bucket list.

The Golden Gleame

Situated just fifty metres from the secluded Bakoven Beach, this penthouse apartment is excellent for a stay that's luxuriously simple. The spacious balcony boasts a private pool and sun loungers with stunning sea views. Sliding doors open up the home and blur the lines between the indoors and out, so you can bask in the sunshine from the kitchen and living area. The Camps Bay beachfront is within walking distance with its lively restaurants and bars, and you'll have space to park in a designated garage if you want to bring a car for further exploration.

Beach Haven

Beautifully positioned, this sleek pad boasts ocean views and direct beach access. Located in Mouille Point, you'll be within easy walking distance of the V&A Waterfront, with an array of bars and restaurants nearby. Plus, it's only a twenty-minute drive from Table Mountain – also visible from the apartment. The interiors are modern and stylish, with a desk for those who need to work remotely and a window-side dining table for homemade meals. The highlight for us? The home's private balcony is a real standout, with comfy seating and a dining set, it's the perfect place to unwind after an exciting day in Cape Town. 

Breakfast at the Beach

Underfloor Heating

Just seconds from the western-facing Clifton 4th Beach, this quirky and fun bungalow was built for sunset lovers. You can enjoy sea views in privacy from the garden, while the sheltered terrace is perfect for family barbecue parties. Inside, the home's eclectic design will be a hit with the kids – they can even watch the swimmers in the pool go by as they play in the downstairs media room. And with its record player and LP collection full of familiar favourites, adults will love it down there too. With an upstairs balcony and two freestanding baths, you've also got plenty of places to enjoy the complimentary wine you'll find on arrival. 

The Hazy Melody

You'll have your pick of outdoor seating at this Cape Town villa, and rest easy knowing you'll have spectacular views of the iconic Table Mountain from wherever you choose to sit. Hanging chairs, sun loungers and an alfresco dining table appear alongside a private infinity pool and lush garden. Though everything will pale in comparison to the vistas outside, the interior puts up a good fight with African-inspired decor, luxurious touches and floor-to-ceiling windows that let in ample light - the steam room in the main bathroom is another nice touch. Hout Bay is full of quirky shops and cafes, and Llandudno Beach is only a short drive away.

Mountainside, with breathtaking vistas over Lions Head and the silhouette of Table Mountain, this luxury villa in Camps Bay is pure magic. Look the other way and you'll be bedazzled even further by the sparkling seascape that stretches out across the bay – visible from almost every angle of the home. 

Outside, the extensive patio terraces present a platform from which to take in the views at every opportunity. There's no better place to be than here during the sunrise and sunset each morning and evening. With plenty of seating areas to choose from, you can be relaxing by the pool with a refreshing glass of South African wine in hand or perched with a book at one of the lounge seating areas. Enjoy home-cooked meals from the private chef at the majestic dining area. When it comes to eating, you'll have the choice of both an indoor and an outdoor set-up. Picture it now, fresh fish, quality wine and those never-ending ocean blue views to finish off the serene setting. 

Inside, minimal designs create a soothing and calm space that makes relaxing oh so easy. Grab a drink from the minibar and embrace the luxury lifestyle promoted by this home. 

Located in the glamourous Camps Bay neighbourhood, you'll be perfectly based to explore the best of Cape Town. Within walking distance from the beach and a wealth of dining delights, from here, lapping up the full Cape Town experience couldn't be easier. As you'll be just a ten-minute drive away from the natural wonders of Table Mountain and a twenty-minute drive away from the shops and museums of the Victoria and Albert Waterfront. 


Mountain's Silhouette

If you’re looking for your own slice of luxury in the heart of Cape Town, then look no further. This stunning penthouse apartment is truly a hedonist's haven. Based in the heart of Sea Point, close to the beautiful Milton Beach, this home provides panoramic views of the ocean and the surrounding cityscape from its wrap-around balcony, and through the floor-to-ceiling windows that envelop each room.

Inside, you’ll find contemporary design with bags of style. We absolutely love the marble wall murals, luxe fabrics, unique light fittings and Scandi-style furniture. You can rest in the cosy lounge area while taking in the sea views, or sit at the breakfast bar with coffees and pastries in the mornings. On sunny days, you can throw open your balcony doors to let the outside in.

Step outside to find your alfresco dining area – perfect for cocktails at sunset – as well as sun loungers where you can relax in the sunshine. There’s also a communal swimming pool that’s great for a refreshing dip on hot and sticky days, as well as a communal barbecue area where you can grill up some scrummy South African meats to feast on in the evenings.


Sea Point Skylines

A contemporary Clifton stay awaits you at this stunning seaside apartment, located just a stone’s throw from the picturesque palm-lined shore and gorgeous blue sea of Clifton Beach. We love this home’s modern and trendy feel, with marbled surfaces, mirrored walls, luxe light fittings and sleek furniture. We were particularly impressed by the kitchen area, furnished with the latest mod-cons, and featuring a breakfast bar where you can pour some champagne and share a toast. There’s also a dining set for tucking into delicious braai all together on summer evenings. But the true gem of the home is in its outdoor areas – the breathtaking views out to sea make the space feel special. The balcony features a private pool which provides the perfect place to cool off from the hot South African sunshine, while the alfresco dining set is great for sipping on sundowners and watching the sky turn pink.

Sparkling Reflections

Cute as a button, this cottage dates back to the Victorian era with bay windows, wooden shutters and a manicured garden. It’s within the town of Stellenbosch, in the heart of South Africa’s most famous wine-producing region – the Cape Winelands. Vineyards dominate the hills around town while the centre is home to tasting rooms and wine bars galore. Once you’ve stocked up on local chenin blancs and cab sauvs, get a slab of meat from the butcher in town and fire up the brick-built barbecue on the patio for a proper braai. Just make sure to leave enough time to digest before heading to the shared swimming pool for some cooling laps.

Stepping inside, big bay windows flood the living room with natural light. Striking artworks on the pristine white walls and a coffee table piled high with glossy artsy books keep things feeling eclectic for classy evenings with a bottle of wine. The kitchen is big and bright, with plenty of prep space thanks to a kitchen island and breakfast bar and there’s a little collection of cookbooks for inspiration. We love the two double bedrooms with their modern-style four-poster beds and dedicated desks for getting a spot of work done if you need.

Just the Tonic

For an exciting getaway in Cape Town, this brightly lit apartment is just the thing. Neutral tones sweep through the apartment, which is completely illuminated by the South African sun. It's tempting to have a lazy morning on this large terrace, sipping on coffee and enjoying the clear view of the mighty Table Mountain. Why not go see it up close? It's only a twenty-minute drive away. Hike to the top of the rugged mountain and take in the sweeping views of Cape Town. Or, if hiking's not your thing, Table Bay which lies at the mouth of the mountain is a beautiful stretch of white sand, backed by plenty of shops, restaurants, and of course, Table Mountain. 

For a taste of luxury, Cabo Beach Club is just a seven-minute drive or twenty-four-minute walk from home. There, you can tuck into a delicious lunch, relax on daybeds, and take a dip in the Atlantic Ocean. If you want to glide through the Indian Ocean, head over to the west side of Cape Town. Muizenberg is a thirty-minute drive away and a beautiful place to experience the warmer, more shallow Indian Ocean. 

However you spend the day, you'll love getting home to your modern oasis. Enjoy a drink on the terrace, watch the sun dip behind Table Mountain, and finish the day cosy in your luxurious bed. Or, explore Cape Town's famous nightlife – you're just a six-minute drive or sixteen-minute walk from Long Street, where you can party 'til the wee hours. 

Cape Oasis

Experience a taste of true luxury with a stay at this stunning villa, nestled rather picturesquely in the heart of Bantry Bay. The outside boasts a heated swimming pool, huge terrace and an abundance of space to relax in the sun and take in the breathtaking views of the bay. The inside is a sleek and elegant affair, with unique art pieces, plush furnishings and light-filled rooms, designed to ensure that everyone who visits has an unforgettable time here. 

Arrive to be dazzled by the bright open-plan living area, with a huge sofa inviting you to kick back and unwind, with those ocean vistas outside the huge floor-to-ceiling windows. Listen to your favourite tunes, courtesy of the sound system, or snuggle up for an evening of Netflix and wine. You’ll be able to rustle up delicious family feasts in the modern and well-equipped kitchen and share them with your loved ones at one of the indoor tables or outside on the terrace, where you’ll also find a barbecue oven and two fire pits. What could be more magical than enjoying cool drinks in the company of your friends and family under the starry sky, warmed by a gentle woodfire? 

For a night of restful sleep, head over to the exquisite bedrooms, each offering a plush bed, a lovely ambience and a sleek en-suite bathroom. Wake up feeling restored and ready for another day of glorious sunshine.
 
Outside your oasis, you’ll find yourself surrounded by exciting activities and stunning locations, with the beach just a short drive away. For an unforgettable sunrise hike, the iconic Table Mountain is located just fifteen minutes away by car. 

Home Is Where the Art Is 

Nestled in the centre of the city of Cape Town, adjacent to the stunning St George's Cathedral, this home offers all the luxury and convenience of city living with breathtaking views to boot, with guests always welcomed to the home by a stunning bouquet of complementary flowers. This two-bedroom abode offers modern, comfortable, sleek furniture and finishings, looking out across the city and towards the majesty of Table Mountain, as well as beautifully-contemporary artworks by established South African artists including Zanele Muholi, Igshaan Adams and Mohau Modisakeng.

When not relaxing at home, Cape Town is the perfect place for adventure. With restaurants, markets and bars all within a five-minute walk, guests are spoilt for culinary choice. A leisurely meander around the Castle of Good Hope is always recommended, and what visit to this beautiful city would be complete without a hike around Table Mountain National Park or Skeleton Gorge. With more adventures than one person could ask for, we are sure that this home will be the setting of a truly unforgettable trip.

Adamastor's Rest

Hot Tub

This amazing villa provides stunning, panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean. Whether you are soaking up the sunshine as you lounge on a sunbed or cooling off in the waters of your private infinity pool, the vista really is amazing.

If adventures and excursions are what you’re looking for, you can charter a private yacht to visit the historic Robben’s Island or even go snorkelling and get up close and personal with the playful and curious Cape fur seals for an ultimate wildlife experience. 

Visit Table Mountain National Park – just a nine-minute drive away and go abseiling from the top of Table Mountain or enjoy the thrill of jet skiing across the waters in front of Table Mountain. 

You can even go on a 4x4 wine safari of Table Mountain where you will stop at the Blockhouse for stunning views over Cape Town accompanied by bubbles and snacks. Then the second part of the journey will take you around to Camps Bay with uninterrupted views of the Twelve Apostles while you enjoy a picnic lunch of cheeses, charcuterie, and a selection of perfectly-paired local South African wines. 

Why not explore the rest of Cape Town in a vintage car? Visit Saunders’ Rock Beach with its imposing granite rocks which shelter it from the wind – just a four-minute drive away. Or, spend the day on the sandy beach of Clifton 1st – just a five-minute drive away. 

In the evening, we would love to let a private chef take care of dinner as we unwind in the soothing bubbles of the hot tub before indulging in cocktails at the home’s very own bar. Then dine alfresco before playing a game of pool or watching a blockbuster movie in the dedicated cinema room. 

Heart of the Horizon

Perfectly located opposite Camps Bay Beach, this oceanside apartment boasts unrivalled views with the beach and restaurants just a short walk away.

Wake up to the gentle sigh of the ocean and make a coffee in the stylish modern kitchen before padding onto your private balcony and gazing at the palm-lined beach and ocean. After a day in the sun, wind down with nibbles or a meal in the beach house-style interior. Don’t miss a spectacular sunset from your balcony with a glass of South African wine, although it’ll be hard to – you’ll end up spending most of your time here soaking up the magical views. 

A stone’s throw from the beach, you won’t be able to resist a stroll along the white sands before cooling off in the turquoise water. Grab a bite in one of the many laid-back cafes nearby and have a rummage in the local boutique shops.

This apartment is a perfect base to explore Cape Town. Go hiking in the incredible Table Mountain National Park, which is pretty much on your doorstep, or take a day trip to visit the African penguins at Boulders Beach.

This home is hard to beat for its unforgettable views and central location, just minutes away from the hustle and bustle of exciting Camps Bay.

Ocean Mirrors

Contemporary and traditional come together at this unique penthouse that is decorated with masks, carvings and other African artefacts from places across the continent including, Zambia, Mozambique and South Africa. The home’s crowning glory, however, is its position above Camps Bay, offering incredible views of the Twelve Apostles and the Atlantic Ocean. Whether you’re soaking up the sunshine on the terrace during the day or watching the sunset as you dine alfresco at night, the views will truly captivate your every moment. 

Enjoy the vistas almost from the moment you wake up, with both bedrooms and the living space opening right onto the terrace overlooking the mountains and ocean scene. When the South African sun gets too hot, cool off in the plunge pool and listen out for the faint sound of the surf from the waters below. 

Fire up the barbecue in the evening and dine alfresco over the golden sunset bay, sipping a glass of Cape Town wine until the night descends and a crescent of lights illuminates the bay. While on colder nights, romantic evenings would be perfectly spent in front of the fireplace. 

Beauty & the Bay

DVD Player

Admire the views over Bali Bay from the sun loungers on this home’s private terrace – we think they are stunning. As the day heats up, take a cooling dip in the plunge pool, then enjoy some of the South African staple chakalaka for an alfresco lunch, followed by some malva pudding. Inside, you can relish more of those sea vistas from all of the rooms. This home is perfect for a couple, business professional or solo traveller.

Located in upscale Camps Bay, spend the day on the white sands of its namesake beach and take in the outlook of the Twelve Apostles mountains. Or sample one of the seafood restaurants, cafes or stylish bars along the promenade. For culture lovers, there’s the Theatre on the Bay, which stages drama, musicals and comedy year-round. 


Bali Bay Vistas

Surrounded by The Twelve Apostles mountain range and the Atlantic Ocean, this colonial home in Camps Bay's best feature might be the large sash windows that create the illusion of being right in the water. Take advantage of that by watching the tide change from the striped wing chairs, or grab a book from the small library and sink into the brown leather sofa – with the windows open, of course, you want to hear the lapping waves beyond. 

Get the coffee dripping first thing in the morning and once breakfast has been prepared, you can take it all out on the sun terrace where to eat alfresco. Breathe in the fresh, sea salt air from your position on the sunlouger, take a dip in the clear, solar-heated swimming pool, and when lunch inevitably comes around, be sure to try South Africa’s favourite pastime, the braai. If you’re not up for barbecuing, you can of course sample the eateries of the area. There are a couple of restaurants and cafes around a five-minute walk away. 

Spend sundrenched days at the beach – there are plenty of options to explore along the coast, including the famous Clifton Beach. Swim in the Camps Bay Tidal Pool, only a short walk away, or pick any one of the tens of hiking trails around – Lion’s Head is an especially popular choice and the starting point is only seven minutes away by car. 

After a long, tiring day, soak in a bubble bath with a glass of wine in hand. Afterward, why not sit out under the stars with koeksisters or peppermint crisp tart and end the day on a sweet note?
