In the exclusive Bakoven neighbourhood of Cape Town, you’ve got the shadows of mighty Table Mountain National Park on one side, and the most wonderful bays and beaches on the other. This luxurious villa is about a twenty-five-minute stroll downhill to Bakoven Beach, or just a few more minutes to bustling Camps Bay Beach. But with all these natural wonders so close to home, you’ll need somewhere to relax after all that time in the great outdoors. At the top of a hill, your villa looks out to the most fantastic vistas of the oceans and mountains. Modern, angular, and sophisticated, the architecture certainly wouldn't be out of place in the Hollywood Hills – with a VIP vibe to match. We love your host’s generous offer to arrange private yacht trips, chauffeurs, and even massages or private chefs to pay you a visit. The bright colours of the living space create a vibrant and playful warmth, alongside opulent features like a tiled marble staircase. Head up to find private balconies flowing on from the bedrooms, but pay particular attention to what you can see on the decking below. Your private pool, barbecue, outdoor lounge, and hot tub await. Did someone say champagne?
