As first impressions go, Zanele holds nothing back: a gravity-defying villa with panoramic views of the Atlantic and striking, modern architecture located in Bantry Bay, one of Cape Town’s most idyllic beachfront neighbourhoods. Inside, every luxury detail is considered, ensuring a luxury stay befitting its enviable address

‍

The Lowdown 

Designed to maximise its breathtaking views, Zanele is the quintessential coastal-luxe retreat. Set high up (yet close to the top beaches, restaurants, and shopping spots), this private, art-filled home is ideal for families and friend groups looking to relax and reconnect in quiet luxury

‍

Sleeping Arrangements 

The villa boats three spacious bedrooms, each with an open-plan dressing room, bathroom and separate W/C. Two of the rooms have set king-size beds while the third can be made into a twin. Each bedroom opens onto a deck with ocean views.

What To Expect

Spread across two generous levels (with a total of 432 square metres living space), Zanele has everything you’ll ever need, including a state-of-the-art kitchen, study area, cinema, open-plan dining and entertaining areas and – the biggest wow-factor drawcard – an infinity pool that seems to merge with the horizon

The Art House Difference 

Creating a home-away-from-home feel, the soothing interiors (appointed in cookies-and-cream tones, natural stone, and warm timber) feature an impressive collection of contemporary South African art and sculpture. Though completely private, the villa is attached to Ellerman House, one of the most exclusive small hotels in the world, allowing access to the hotel’s personal and discreet services
