Kwaaiwater, Hermanus

Just one road back from the famous Hermanus Cliff Path - with direct pedestrian gate access to the walkway below - this architecturally striking villa is one of Hermanus's most impressive private retreats. Floor-to-ceiling glass, exposed finishes and a thoughtful open-plan design ensure the ocean and mountain views follow you from every room.
Spread across two generous floors, the villa accommodates up to eight guests across four bedrooms, including a completely self-contained private apartment with its own kitchenette, lounge, fireplace and bathroom - ideal for extended family or guests who prefer their own space.
The master suite is a destination in itself. A walk-in wardrobe, en-suite bathroom and a large ocean-facing study flow out onto a private balcony — your own quiet perch above the Atlantic. Upstairs, a sprawling lounge and sitting room with smart TV and fireplace opens onto a terrace perfectly positioned for whale watching. Binoculars are provided.
Downstairs, the open-plan kitchen and dining room centres around a second fireplace and a walk-in wine fridge. The living space flows directly to the pool terrace, where a heated pool, outdoor sauna and outdoor shower sit alongside a substantial indoor braai and bar — built for long, unhurried evenings with people you love.
For those who like to stay active, the private fitness studio is equipped with a spin bike and yoga mats. Every room has air conditioning and its own dressing gowns, and swimming towels are provided throughout. The home runs on reverse osmosis water and is inverter-backed for uninterrupted comfort during load shedding.
Cooler boxes and a full sundowner setup are available for afternoons on the terrace. Private garage. Scullery.
