Set within one of Cape Town’s most coveted addresses, Clifton Views places you steps from the Atlantic Ocean — in a suburb that has long been the preserve of those who know exactly where to stay. The two-level townhouse occupies a secure, gated complex on the slopes above the famous Clifton beaches, with direct beach access and the kind of unhurried atmosphere that only the Atlantic Seaboard can offer.
Inside, the property has been styled with care: two spacious en-suite bedrooms — a king and a queen — open onto a private terrace that gives way to the infinity pool. Premium linen, a fully equipped kitchen, dedicated workspace, a gas BBQ on the deck and air conditioning throughout make this an equally fine base for a working retreat or an indulgent leisure stay. The complex is gated, with free on-premises parking.
Clifton is a small, unhurried enclave sheltered between Lion’s Head and the Atlantic, with four consecutive white-sand beaches that consistently rank among the finest in the world. The fourth beach — a short walk from the property — attracts a discerning crowd and stays calm on days when the south-easter builds.
The suburb has no commercial strip to speak of, which is precisely the point. Camps Bay’s restaurants and bars are a five-minute drive, and the V&A Waterfront is fifteen. You are close enough to everything, and far enough from the noise to remember why you came.
Free on-site parking is provided and the Atlantic Seaboard is best navigated by car. Camps Bay is a 5-minute drive; the V&A Waterfront, Green Point Stadium and the City Bowl are 15–20 minutes via De Waal Drive. Ubers are plentiful and reliable. The nearest taxi rank is in Sea Point, approximately 10 minutes on foot.
