South Africa Villa Vacation rentals Luxury Suites with Views of Lagoon and Mountains in Hermanus.
Luxury and Tranquility on the Lagoon
This is a luxury holiday Villa, cocooned behind the ancient Cape Fold Mountains on the waters edge of the Hermanus Lagoon. It offers a peaceful and luxurious getaway for families, small groups, special events and those in search of rare solitude.
The Villa, situated just outside the holiday town of Hermanus (4km away), is a haven from the hustle of this pretty holiday town.

Our stay at the Villa was the highlight of our South African travels. We were a group of 6 women that had all traveled the globe extensively and had to agree the Villa was the most remarkable places we had ever stayed. The beauty and ambiance were only intensified by the hospitality of an incredible staff that made us feel as if we were living the lifestyle of the rich and famous! we cannot thank the staff enough for all their kindness and attention to small details that made a huge difference in our vacation

The Villa is a one of a kind property. The property and decor is incredible and every single room is expansive and luxurious. We loved the putting course and tennis courts, as well as the beautiful lagoon. The service we received was the best we had experienced-- you wanted for nothing and your every need was catered to. Every single meal was set up beautifully and custom just for you and the food was delicious. The ambiance is pure beauty and relaxation. We hope to return one
