With five bedrooms and two ground floor spa rooms, the new Ellerman House Villa One is one of those properties that immediately makes you reconsider the way you vacation. The 7,492-square-foot residence, situated in Cape Town, South Africa, offers 180-degree sea views from its hillside location. The villa, which is part of the 13-room Ellerman House, has modern, minimalist décor and contemporary furnishings and amenities.

Complete with a full hospitality team and personal chef, the house makes it easy for guests to live like royalty. If you’ve ever experienced an in-house chef, you know that this part alone will enhance your trip. Inside the villa boasts a fully-equipped kitchen, dining room, study, a TV lounge and a spa, while outside sits a large teak deck and infinity-edge pool. The stainless steel kitchen will come pre-stocked with local fare in order to create an authentic South African experience.

The top floor includes three bedrooms which can be accessed by an elevator or stairs. Each en-suite bathroom comes with infinity mirrors, Travertine marble and high-end bath products. Decorated in cool creams and aqua, the master bedroom offers floor-to-ceiling windows and a bathroom that opens out to the ocean. Boasting a Bali-style bathroom, the second bedroom features a lilac color theme and private patio opening up to the ocean. The final bedroom overlooks the Twelve Apostles mountain range and comes with two single beds.

Downstairs, the lower level includes the spa relaxation area which opens out onto the deck and pool, the spa treatment room and two more bedrooms. It’s basically a full resort all to yourself. Along with the entertainment room, there is a library stocked with books and the latest magazines, and a study should you need to work while on holiday.

The best part is, it’s only 10 minutes from central Cape Town so even though you’ll feel a world away, you’re just a short drive to shopping, restaurants and nightlife. It is also within walking distance to Clifton beaches, five minutes to the Table Mountain Aerial Cableway or Camps Bay, and 10 minutes from the V&A Waterfront.
