Cape Cerulean South Africa
Holiday Home Rental Description
Just meters from the water of Clifton’s third beach, Cape Cerulean offers three stunning bedrooms, two magnificent living spaces and an incredible garden which wraps its way around the villa!
These enchanting interiors are bursting with life, with every shade of blue echoing the vibrant seascape visible from every room! Your main living space is highly sophisticated, with an outstanding vaulted ceiling opening the room up beautifully, a plush sofa and chairs beside the decorative fireplace and breath-taking views across through huge seafront French doors! Towards the back of the room is a unique and beautiful kitchen, fully-equipped for preparing snacks, treats and full, hearty meals! Tuck into each meal at this elegant glass dining table beside the lounge, or else head into your rather lovely alfresco dining area! On the ground floor, meanwhile, there’s an additional entertainment area with a huge sofa and views overlooking your elegant pool terrace and the shimmering sea just beyond it.
Also on the ground floor is your sublime master suite. Here, a large double bed sits before the wall-mounted TV, while there’s a desk to one side right before the incredible French door access to your exquisite pool terrace! The second double room is up on the first floor and features a wrap-around terrace with 180-degree views of this extraordinary scenery! As well as this the room enjoys a chaise longue, a TV and tons of space! Alongside a third, the smaller twin room is a private bathroom; meanwhile, the two double bedrooms each feature spacious en-suite bathrooms.
For the jewel in the crown of this magnificent villa, step out onto these fabulous terraces, with one on each floor. On the first floor, you can indulge in a little glamorous alfresco dining, either in the sunshine or the refreshing shade of the pergola! Meanwhile, on the ground floor, there’s your spectacular pool terrace, surrounded by luxury loungers and complete with a Jacuzzi so you can soak and soothe and stare out over this paradise in absolute bliss! Truly, this vast ocean and beach views can be enjoyed from countless incredible angles throughout the villa, both inside and out. Or if its just a little sea air and tranquillity you’re after, there’s a lovely lawn and relaxed seating area on the veranda too, so there is something for everyone and every moment!Right on the seafront with views across both the second and third Clifton beaches, Cape Cerulean could hardly be better placed to soak up the surreal beauty of this incredible location!
Clifton is one of the most exclusive areas of the city, in part thanks to its location in a perfectly protected cove and right on the lower slopes of Lion’s Head. The four Clifton beaches are famous for their natural beauty, spectacular scenery and gentle waves year-round and its 4th beach even enjoys Blue Flag status.
Within a short drive is the iconic V&A Waterfront, a retail and entertainment area right at the foot of Table Mountain with tons of shops, restaurants, markets of all kinds and even both an Aquarium and Marine Museum. It is the starting point for almost all tours, cruises and excursions. Within a short walk of here is the Green Point market, tucked just outside the Green Point Stadium. Visit on Sundays to find locals selling all kinds of authentic arts, craft and curios – just be sure to barter, as they’ll be expecting you to!
Cape Point itself offers miles of dramatic coastline scenery, including golden beaches of soft sands, peaks and valleys rich in fertile land and an interesting history, where again you can see fascinating wildlife! Of course, one on the region’s most iconic locations is Boulders Beach, home to a colony of thousands of African penguins which you can watch and admire in their natural habitat, and it’s only around one hour from the villa! An unforgettable day out is a trip to Robben Island, the Maximum Security Prison where political prisoners, including Nelson Mandela, were held during the apartheid. The tour begins at the V&A Waterfront and includes not only a tour of the prison itself but also meeting a former political prisoner and a tour of the 575-hectare Island which often includes sightings of penguins!
If you’re a fan of wine you already know South Africa is unmissable – what you might not know is that the Constantia Valley, with estates dating back to 1685, is the oldest winemaking region in the southern hemisphere! In this exquisite valley, you will find not only vineyards but also countless excellent restaurants to enjoy along the way!
With both the Atlantic and the Indian Ocean to choose from, you’ll find an inspiring selection of water-sports available all along the coastline! Surfing (and kite surfing) are, as you might expect, major sports in the area, thanks to the varied coastline made up of protected coves to huge open beaches with enormous waves, promising something for all levels! You can also take part in a little sea kayaking, where you’ve a good chance of spotting seals, penguins, dolphins – and even the odd whale! Or even take an official trip whale watching where you’re likely to see Southern right whales, bottlenose and dusky dolphin and occasionally even humpback and killer whales!
