This petite one-bedroom seashore apartment is the ideal romantic getaway with complete privacy and the most astounding sea views from the balcony that overlooks Clifton First Beach’s soft white sand and aquamarine ocean. Relax on the two sun loungers with drinks and snacks and listen to the waves breaking below and the seagulls crying above, or take a short stroll downstairs for a walk on the beach to enjoy that ‘sand between the toes’ experience.

Situated just a short drive from Cape Town city centre and walking distance from shops and restaurants, this lovers’ nest boasts a cool modern décor with smooth pale wood floors and chic furniture to match.

The open plan lounge houses a soft couch and sleek dining table , and the sea view can be enjoyed through the floor-to-ceiling glass sliding doors leading onto the balcony. A flat screen TV with satellite will provide entertainment for those idle hours needed to recover from a day at the beach or exploring the surrounding countryside along the coastal road that runs past the complex, and air-conditioning throughout ensures constant comfort on hot days.

The cosy kitchen has all the expected mod cons, including a kettle, toaster, microwave, dishwasher, two-plate cooker and easy to clean surfaces.

A downstairs guest bathroom is situated at the back of the kitchen for convenience, with stylish pale tiles, stainless fittings, a lovely glassed-in shower, basin and toilet.

A short flight of stairs leads up to the bedroom, where the cool décor of pale wooden floors and sleek furnishings continues, with stunning dark wood bedside tables and a double bed.

An observation deck with 2 chairs and a coffee table looks out across the ocean, perfect for morning tea or coffee, or a relaxing breakfast. The en-suite bathroom is situated on the other side of a spacious walk-through wardrobe, and boasts cream tiles, a glass shower cubicle, basin, toilet and bidet.

The apartment has a parking bay upstairs and comes with security for complete peace of mind, as well as WiFi to keep in contact with friends and family while on holiday.
