Amenities

The villa is located in Camps Bay, a trendy, exclusive suburb on the Atlantic coast just a ten minute drive from downtown Cape Town. The long, white sandy beach around which the bay curves was the first in Cape Town to be awarded Blue Flag Status. Camps Bay is located behind Table Mountain, nestled between Lions Head and the majestic Twelve Apostles. The protected position of the bay means that although the ocean is refreshingly cool, it is less windy than other nearby beaches. The main road in Camps Bay is lined with bars, hotels and excellent restaurants overlooking the beach. Deck chairs and umbrellas are available for daily rental on the beach. The palm fringed beach and cosmopolitan array of restaurants and cafes give Camps Bay a vibrant ‘South of France’ ambience. Downtown Cape Town is just a ten minute drive along the spectacular Kloof Nek road. The spectacular Llandudno, Clifton and Bakoven beaches are also no more than a 5 minute drive from Camps Bay. The very popular V&A Waterfront development is a fifteen minute drive away and offers a wide range of shops, restaurants, boat and helicopter tours and other attractions.
