MBIZI lagoon house - Four Bedroom House, Sleeps 8
Set directly on the lagoon front in Fisherhaven near Hermanus, Mbizi lagoon house is a tranquil retreat that speaks to the heart. Here, nature and freedom blend beautifully and almost any time of day, you might spot South Africas only wild horse herd wandering past the terrace or crossing the shimmering lagoon waters. When the water level rises, graceful flamingos often join the scene, turning the landscape into a living painting. Just beyond the lagoon lies the vast Atlantic Ocean, with endless stretches of white sand beach perfect for long walks, quiet reflection, or simply soaking in the coastal calm.
The house offers space for up to eight guests, combining openness, comfort, and panoramic views that celebrate the beauty of its surroundings. A full glass facade opens the home to the lagoon, ocean, and mountains beyond, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. Guests can enjoy free WiFi throughout the property, air conditioning in all main living and sleeping areas, and secure access within a private estate offering 247 security and an alarm system connected to estate services.
Upstairs, guests are welcomed into a spacious lounge with plush sofas, a gas fireplace, and a coffee kitchenette ideal for cosy evenings overlooking the water. The master bedroom features a king size extra length bed, two workspaces ideal for remote working, a private loggia, and an ensuite bathroom with a freestanding bathtub and shower. Two additional bedrooms, one with a queen size bed and hanging chairs overlooking the lagoon, and another with a king size extra length bed, offer thoughtful comfort and Smart TVs in each room, two of which include in bed TV lifters. All bedrooms feature Sloom adjustable mattresses, high quality linen, and ample wardrobe space.
Downstairs, the terrace level offers open plan living and dining areas featuring two fireplaces, one wood burning and one gas, and a built in indoor braai perfect for year round entertaining. The fully equipped kitchen includes a gas hob, oven, microwave, air fryer, dishwasher, fridge freezer, wine cooler, ice maker, kettle, coffee machine, toaster, and a full range of cookware. A washer dryer combination unit and a small courtyard for air drying laundry add convenience for longer stays, while barstools around a stylish island invite guests to gather and chat while cooking.
Also on this level, the fourth bedroom opens onto a private terrace by the pool, offering direct access to the deck and serene lagoon views. Two hanging chairs, a Smart TV, and nearby bathrooms, one with a shower and the other with a bathtub, make this a peaceful hideaway. The large open plan lounge features multiple plush sofas, a Smart TV with sound system, and an open gas fireplace, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploration.
Outside, the wooden deck is designed for effortless outdoor living. Guests can unwind beside the infinity swimming pool, rinse off in the outdoor shower, and enjoy sunny afternoons on loungers with soft cushions and pool pillows. From day to sunset, a gas BBQ, an extendable outdoor dining table for eight, a large umbrella, and a special white outdoor table with built-in ice compartments for keeping drinks cold provide the perfect setup for alfresco meals and relaxing moments, while the sky over the Botrivier Lagoon and Nature Reserve transforms into stunning hues of gold and pink.
