About this property

Sun & Sea in a Downtown Mediterranean Villa

Stunning Mediterranean style villa draped in sunshine with sweeping ocean views, gardens, a lapa with a built-in barbecue and a real fire place situated on the Atlantic seaboard in downtown Cape Town. Access to a pool in a SHARED SPACE NEXT DOOR (though typically unavailable between Dec 9 - Jan 8). 5-7 minutes walk from shops, bars and restaurants in Green Point and a 5-7 minutes drive to Table Mountain, V&A waterfront, the promenade and its many beaches, Long Street and the stunning Green Point Park.

This stunning Mediterranean style villa is situated up the slopes of Signal hill, a part of Table Mountain National Park right in the middle of Atlantic Seaboard in downtown Cape Town. The villa has sweeping ocean views only interrupted by Robben Island in the distance. This villa has five bed rooms all with en-suite bathrooms and a dedicated, playful space in the living area that can sleep four additional people on floor mattresses. The master bedroom has a beautiful little balcony with amazing ocean views. The villa has a bunch of sitting areas, both indoor and outdoor as well as access to a swimming pool in a SHARED SPACE NEXT DOOR, up a quick flight of steps and by prior notice only (though typically unavailable between Dec 9 -Jan 8).

Our favorite part in the villa is the entertainment 'lapa' area with a built-in barbecue. One of the gardens has a beautiful Kolkol wood-fired hot tub in it for those cold nights which doubles up your own little splash pool in summer days.

The villa has four bedrooms and bathrooms as part of the main house while the last bedroom opens up directly in a pretty little garden in the same property. One of the bedrooms is a small room with bunk beds nestled within the master bedroom and sharing the master bathroom.

The villa is over 100 years old and, though greatly cared for, shows its age in some places. Expect to find some loving wear, quaint aging and charming patina both inside and outside.

The guests can also access a beautiful swimming pool in a SHARED SPACE a quick flight of steps away, where the hosts stay, and by prior notice only (though typically unavailable between Dec 9 and Jan 8)

The guests have two secured parking spaces.

The villa is right next to another one of our properties with a connecting door in between. If you have a really large group (up to 20-22 people) and there is availability in both the properties, we can try to help by offering both properties together.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Hosted by Gagan Sekhsaria

Host profile image
I have the privilege of living in gorgeous Cape Town and sharing its stunning beauty with you. I just graduated to receive an MBA degree from the London School of Economics and have over 22 years of work experience with global firms across many locations globally. I love using private home rentals when I travel and have been doing so since many years now so I thought why not use the extra place I own in Cape Town and offer it to travelers who enjoy the same experience too. So, here you are!

Why they chose this property

This is a real special property in so many different ways but there is a little known fact that I wish to share with you. One of South Africa's legendary rubgy players who was a part of the team that brought home the ever so famous 1995 Rugby World Cup (seen the movie Invictus?), James Small, grew up in this house.

What makes this property unique

A sprawling villa full of character with sweeping views of the ocean with vistas of Robben Island in the distance
