Velvet Luxe

Enjoy a glorious stay at this smart 1apartment, based just a stone’s throw away from the beach in Bloubergstrand, Cape Town. This flat features all you need for a comfortable and convenient stay, with contemporary furniture, beautiful artwork and plenty of room for each of you to stretch out and relax. Staying here means you’ll also get access to the wonderful shared pool, so you can cool off from the South African sunshine.

Start your morning by heading down to the beach – based just one road away from your apartment – and enjoy paddling, swimming or surfing in the waves. Head to a beachside café to pick up a morning smoothie and sip on it while you enjoy the views out to Robben Island. Return to your abode and cook up a South African breakfast of maize porridge, and tuck in on your stylish breakfast bar. As the heat rises, head down to the shared pool for a float or a swim. As the evening rolls in, enjoy wine and conversation around your modern dining table, stick a movie on the TV and lounge on the sofa, or head back out to see what Bloubergstrand’s nightlife has to offer.
