Luxury Oceanfront Retreat – Whaleview Villa, Klein Slangkop, Kommetjie

Experience an exclusive stay in a private eco-nature reserve, nestled between the ocean and the mountains.

Welcome to "Whaleview", your newly renovated, high-end sanctuary located within the prestigious and ultra-secure Klein Slangkop Private Eco Estate in Kommetjie. Offering a spectacular 180-degree panoramic view of the endless white sand beach and the Atlantic Ocean, our villa is the perfect haven to recharge with family or friends (accommodates up to 8 guests + 1 baby).
Leave all your stress behind. Here, you will immerse yourself in a unique atmosphere where children play freely, surfers stroll down to the waves, and local wildlife—including whales, dolphins, and otters—frequently passes by.

The Bedrooms: Ultimate Comfort & Preserved Privacy

The villa layout has been thoughtfully designed to offer every guest the perfect balance between shared moments and personal tranquility:

4 spacious bedrooms featuring double beds with brand-new, premium mattresses for a restful sleep. Each room is equipped with its own smart TV loaded with streaming apps (Netflix, Prime Video, Disney+, YouTube, etc.).
3 independent ground-floor suites: Each bedroom has its own en-suite bathroom (with a shower, and one of them includes a bathtub as well).
1st-floor living space: The fourth bedroom is located on the first floor, right next to its dedicated bathroom (featuring a shower and the villa's second bathtub). This configuration is a unique asset for families: it allows grandparents for instance, to enjoy the entire upper level (bedroom, bathroom, large lounge, and panoramic balcony) to relax at their own pace.
An additional separate guest toilet is available on the ground floor.

Families with Toddlers (Baby Equipment Provided)

To help you travel light, we gladly provide all the necessary essentials for our youngest guests:
- A cozy baby cot (crib), fully made up with its own duvet and pillow.
- A high chair for mealtimes.
- A secure baby playpen.

Air Conditioning & Heating: Perfect Comfort in Every Season

The entire ground floor features underfloor heating for cozy winter evenings, while the main living area is equipped with reversible air conditioning (providing ideal coolness in summer and gentle warmth in winter).
The first floor comes with powerful mobile radiators so you can easily adjust the temperature to your preference.

Living Areas: The Perfect Indoor-Outdoor Lifestyle

- First Floor (Relaxation & Panoramas): A vast, sunlit lounge with a TV screen and an 8-seater dining table opens onto a large balcony. It is the ultimate spot to admire the ocean from left to right, watch for whales during the season, or gaze at the majestic mountains.
- Ground Floor (Convivial Family Space): A second living space with a sofa, TV, and a selection of board games seamlessly integrates with a gorgeous open-plan kitchen. Thanks to fully retractable glass stack doors, the entire space opens wide to the outdoors, merging the villa with the surrounding nature.

A Chef's Kitchen for Coffee Lovers

The kitchen was fully installed by my husband, a passionate foodie and gourmet cook. It is equipped with professional-grade appliances (large induction cooktop, microwave, traditional oven with an integrated advanced steam cooking system, dishwasher, large American-style fridge-freezer, water boiler) and three coffee brewing options tailored to your individual needs:

- A classic drip coffee maker to brew a fresh morning pot.
- A Nespresso machine.
- A traditional Bialetti Italian moka pot.

Private Outdoor Paradise & Leisure Amenities

The ground-floor glass doors open onto a beautifully landscaped, blossoming garden oasis:

- A large terrace featuring a highly comfortable outdoor lounge area and an outdoor dining table (seating 8 to 10 guests).
- A private swimming pool heated by solar energy, lined with sun loungers to perfect your tan.
- Beach towels included: High-quality beach towels are provided for every guest.
- The Authentic South African Braai Experience: A fully equipped barbecue area. We provide the necessary cooking utensils for your barbecues.
- Beach Return: A hot outdoor shower—pure bliss to rinse off comfortably after a stroll on the sand.
- Fun for Kids: Plenty of beach and pool toys are available to keep our youngest guests happy and entertained.
- For Your Day Trips: We provide a cooler backpack, perfect for impromptu picnics on the sand or traditional south-africans sundowners, enjoying the sunset at the beach.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
We have visited Cape Town several times but this was by far our favourite place. The house is in a fabulous location on a secure eco estate a few minutes walk from the beach. Newly renovated to a very high standard, clean and extremely comfortable, we loved every minute of our stay. Communication with owner Marc and Cate who manages guests was very easy and they were extremely accommodating. Highly recommended.
