The villa is located on the lower slopes of Muizenberg mountain overlooking False Bay. It is fully equipped and tastefully furnished with gleaming Oregon pine floors. The front porch leads to a generous entrance hall. The spacious lounge has an oak fireplace, two large sofas, an ottoman, occasional chairs, coffee table, a bookcase and a television cabinet for DSTV (satellite television). The lounge provides access via a glass sliding door to the tiled balcony, spanning the entire front of the villa, and to the furnished view deck overlooking the garden. The views from the balcony and the deck of the Indian Ocean, the Hottentots Hollands mountain range and the Cape Flats area are spectacular by day and magical by night. The Villa has three bedrooms: the main is en suite with a double bed and a chaise longue: the other two rooms have twin beds in each and share a large bathroom with bath and shower.
