Cape Town is rated as one of the top coastal cities in the world, consistently making it onto the top lists of internationally renowned and respected publications like National Geographic for its splendid beaches and holiday experience.
Situated at the tip of the African continent, Cape Town is built on a peninsula that juts out into the ocean, dividing the Atlantic Ocean from the balmier Indian Ocean. It is a scenic landscape of mountains and dramatic coastal drives with stunning views of rocks and boulders, white beaches, tidal pools and waves breaking onto the sandy beaches.

The city has ten blue flag beaches, which means that these beaches meet the highest global standards for safety, cleanliness and environmental guidelines. Some of Cape Town’s best-loved beaches are close to the city as well with Camps Bay and Clifton 4th only 10 minutes by car from the city centre. Bikini Beach and Llandudno are other gorgeous beaches surrounded by lovely holiday bungalows and the best Cape Town beach villas.

A touch of class
There are many areas to choose from and the most sought-after properties are usually Camps Bay vacation rentals. This picturesque seaside neighbourhood is situated on the back slope of Table Mountain and faces the Atlantic Ocean.
Camps Bay villa accommodation consists of stylish, luxury rentals that are fitted to fulfil the needs and desires of the most discerning holidaymakers visiting Cape Town.
They are usually close to the trendy Camps Bay beach with its promenade of palm trees, cafes, bars and restaurants. Other luxury villas in Camps Bay are higher up against the mountain, making the most of their position to offer magnificent views.
A villa with a view
Where hotels are often impersonal, with bland décor and almost clinical interior decorating, a villa provides families or friends with the opportunity to stay in the kind of surrounds that appeal to them – contemporary or more laidback beach style, sophisticated or more trendy.
No need to worry about the neighbours in the room next door and in addition - your space is your own. Eat breakfast when you want and where you want - your time is your own.
Luxury villas come with cleaning crews and maintenance teams, some have chefs on call that can make all of your meals for you. All you have to do is relax.
There are villas with large decks and entertainment areas perfect for sipping sundowners and watching the sun slip behind the ocean while others have extra lounges for children and teenagers, giving parents a little privacy.
Every day is a beach day
If being close to the ocean and being able to see, feel and smell the ocean can make the difference for you between a break and a dream vacation, then you really should consider a beach villa in Cape Town for your next dream holiday.
