Elegant Oceans Views

Nestled in the prestigious suburb of Bantry Bay, Cape Town, this exquisite four-bedroom villa epitomises luxury living with unparalleled ocean vistas. Bantry Bay stands out as one of the most wind-free locations in South Africa, offering a serene coastal haven for those seeking respite from the elements. Amidst this idyllic setting, Elegant Oceans Views emerges as a gem, strategically positioned with a north-facing orientation.

Space:

This location and design choice not only avoids the direct onslaught of the westward sun, as often experienced in Clifton, and provides shelter from heavy wind (such as Camps Bay experiences) but also ensures that the villa basks in the gentle warmth of the sun during the winter months. The rarity of properties in the Cape boasting such a combination of wind protection and optimal sunlight makes Elegant Oceans Views a unique and coveted retreat, providing an unparalleled experience for those fortunate enough to rent this exceptional property.

The heart of the home resides on the second floor, where an open-plan living area seamlessly combines a stylish lounge, a sophisticated dining room with an expansive table for twelve, and a fully-equipped kitchen with a three-seater breakfast bar. The lounge, adorned with plush furnishings and a large television, extends to a second lounge area with direct access to the pool balcony.

The pool balcony, a sublime retreat, offers panoramic ocean views, outdoor seating for al fresco dining, a gas barbecue for culinary delights, and a refreshing splash pool—perfect for leisurely afternoons spent soaking in the sun and relishing the epitome of coastal living.

The first two bedrooms, situated on the third floor, offer breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean and boast access to a private ocean-facing balcony. Each bedroom is generously proportioned and features its own en-suite bathroom, ensuring absolute comfort and privacy. The master bedroom goes above and beyond with a dedicated seating area, a walk-in wardrobe, and a big screen television.

The third bedroom, also located on the third floor, is a haven of tranquillity, featuring an en-suite bathroom and direct access to a private courtyard with captivating ocean views. The fourth bedroom is located separately at the entrance of the villa and is not situated inside the villa. This bedroom comes with an en-suite bathroom.

This Bantry Bay villa is a harmonious blend of opulence and coastal charm, promising an unparalleled lifestyle in one of Cape Town's most coveted locations.

Please note: There are quite a lot of stairs to access the property and within the property, and the property is completely non-smoking.

We cannot give any guarantees on this. Should you accept the rate and proceed with a booking, no further compensation can be offered on arrival or during the stay as a result of the construction.

Transit:

MyCiTi is Cape Town’s modern, scheduled bus service, and an easy way to get around the city. Current routes link the Airport and central Cape Town with Camps Bay and Clifton. All you need is your Myconnect card preloaded with money, which you can do at any MyCiTi station or select retailer. Alternatively, one of the easiest ways to get around is by Uber. Just download the app on your smartphone, register, and start using it straight away. The best part is that you register yourself with your credit card details, so you don’t need to always have cash on you to be able to catch a ride.

House Rules:

Please take note of the following before booking:

Please note you will be required to sign a separate guest registration form prior to arrival in order for us to facilitate your check-in.

Electricity:

South Africa has been experiencing periods of load-shedding (unscheduled electricity disruptions). This means that electricity goes off for periods of 2.5 hours or more at a time. We often do not know in advance when this will happen. Most of our owners, however, have taken a number of measures to ensure your greatest comfort during your stay. However, there is an app you can download in order to ensure you know what times it will take place and plan your day accordingly. Please search your app store for the following app: ESP – The Loadshedding App. We apologise for any inconvenience that this may cause. This is, unfortunately, something that is out of our hands and governed by the South African Electricity providers. Accordingly, neither nor the owner shall be liable for any refunds, compensation or discounts as a result of services being unavailable due to load shedding.

Noise Control:

This apartment is situated in a quiet residential area and we need to adhere to strict noise control measures implemented by the body corporate and city council for this area. We therefore need you to understand and accept the following conditions:

Groups:

No groups of all solo travellers unless by request. No bachelor or bachelorette party groups permitted.

Children:

Although we accept children at this property, there may still be child safety issues and concerns for guests with younger children, such as balconies, split-level terraces, and unfenced pools. Guests staying with children do so at their own risk and are urged to take all due care and attention during their stay.
