Welcome to Zanté
Perched on the mountainside on the edge of historic Simon’s Town, Zanté is a stylish three-level townhouse designed to make the most of its spectacular position above False Bay. From the moment you arrive, the view draws your eye outward—an uninterrupted stretch of ocean, fishing boats moving slowly across the water, and the soft glow of sunrise spreading across the bay each morning.
This peaceful coastal retreat offers the perfect balance between quiet relaxation and easy access to everything Simon’s Town has to offer. A short stroll takes you to nearby sandy beaches where calm waters invite long swims and lazy afternoons by the sea. The village itself is filled with charming cafés, restaurants, and small shops, all set against the backdrop of the historic naval harbour that has shaped the town’s character for generations.
Inside, Zanté is designed with comfort and simplicity in mind. Light fills the living spaces and large windows frame the ever-changing colours of the bay. Whether you’re enjoying your morning coffee while watching the sunrise, spending a quiet afternoon on the balcony with a book, or gathering around the dining table after a day exploring the Cape Peninsula, the home offers an easy, relaxed setting for a memorable coastal stay.
The townhouse unfolds across three levels, giving guests plenty of space to spread out and settle into the slower rhythm of seaside living. Every level captures glimpses of the ocean, creating a constant connection to the landscape outside.
The Space
Zanté is arranged across three levels and offers three comfortable bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms, making it ideal for families, couples travelling together, or friends looking for a relaxed coastal getaway.
The main living area is located on the middle level, which you enter as you arrive at the property. This floor forms the heart of the home, where the kitchen, dining area and lounge flow naturally together to create an open and welcoming space.
The TV lounge provides a comfortable place to unwind in the evenings, while the dining area is perfectly suited for long, unhurried meals after a day spent exploring the coastline. The fully equipped kitchen has everything needed for preparing simple breakfasts before heading to the beach or relaxed dinners at home.
From this level, doors open out onto a private balcony overlooking the ocean. It’s the perfect spot for morning coffee as the sun rises across False Bay, or a quiet evening drink while watching the colours of the bay change as the light fades.
The bedrooms are thoughtfully positioned across the upper and lower levels of the home, offering guests privacy and space. Each room is designed to feel calm and comfortable, providing a restful retreat after days spent outdoors enjoying the beaches, mountains, and natural beauty of the Cape Peninsula.
The Location
Simon’s Town is one of the Cape’s most charming coastal villages. Known for its naval history, colourful harbour, and relaxed seaside atmosphere, it offers a unique blend of natural beauty and small-town character.
Zanté is ideally positioned to explore the area. Within minutes you can walk to nearby beaches, enjoy breakfast at one of the local cafés, or take a stroll through the historic town centre with its galleries, boutiques and restaurants.
The famous Boulders Beach penguin colony is only a short drive away, where visitors can watch African penguins in their natural habitat among the granite boulders and clear waters of the bay. From here, the scenic coastal road continues south toward Cape Point Nature Reserve, one of the most spectacular stretches of coastline in South Africa.
Whether you’re exploring tidal pools, hiking coastal trails, discovering hidden beaches, or simply enjoying the view from the balcony, Zanté offers a perfect base for experiencing the natural beauty and relaxed lifestyle of False Bay.
