DESCRIPTION:

Harbour Place is a gorgeous 4-star apartment with unsurpassed harbour views and high-speed broadband internet at your fingertips set right on the edge of Kalk Bay’s colourful harbour. The apartment is situated within the prestigious Majestic Village, a unique 24-hour security village, and consists of two en-suite bedrooms, a spacious living area with a roll-out day-bed and a state of the art, fully equipped kitchen.

A Seaside Holiday with a Difference

Imagine waking up in a lovingly restored old-world apartment, to a breathtaking view of the Kalk Bay Harbour. Tumbling out of bed to pop across the street for freshly baked croissants from the Olympia Bakery, that well-loved Cape Town landmark. Imagine taking breakfast on your private patio or on the spacious and sunny window sill, watching the boats and bustle of the harbour and the passing parade on the quaint village streets. Beyond that, the majestic mountains of Fish Hoek and Simon’s Town hug the coastline and the blue, blue ocean where whales and dolphins play.

It’s the start of another perfect day at Harbour Place, a luxury apartment right on the edge of Kalk Bay’s colourful harbour. Harbour Place is not just another plush seaside getaway. Safely nestled in the prestigious Majestic Village, a unique 24-hour security village made up of several historical Kalk Bay buildings, it combines the colonial charm of the elegant Thirties with all the creature comforts of a modern beach house.

Harbour Place extends over a sizable portion of the lower West wing of the original New King’s Hotel on Main Road, Kalk Bay. Inspired by the unfussy, elegant designs of the Thirties, its interior is an eclectic mix of Art Deco and modern pieces, cleverly combined to create a space where you can relax and unwind, without ever distracting from its truly special location.

Expect to find high ceilings and exquisitely arched lead-glass windows framing what is possibly the best view of the Bay. Feast your senses on uncompromising luxury and quality - whether you’re padding on the Tasmanian Teak hardwood floors (complete with underfloor heating for colder winter nights) or snuggling into 100% Percale, Hand-embroidered Egyptian bedlinen.

ACCOMMODATION

There are two spacious bedrooms at Harbour Place. The main bedroom has a king-sized bed with bathroom and toilet en suite, the second bedroom has two single beds with shower and loo en suite. A lock-up safe and plenty of cupboard space ensures a safe and clutter-free stay. Provision has been made for two extra people on a roll-out day-bed in the spacious living area, should your party consist of more than 4.

With plenty of restaurants within a 3km radius, you might want to side-step the kitchen altogether. But should you feel like some home cooking, the state of the art kitchen should get your creative juices flowing. Equipped with ultra-modern appliances, including a microwave, coffee maker and dishwasher, no expense has been spared to make sure your time in the kitchen feels like part of your holiday. The kitchen window has a beautiful view over the bay, and incorporates a convenient serving hatch which lets you pass those home-made goodies straight through to your lucky guests salivating on the patio.

Of course, your apartment will be serviced daily, with fresh linen changes twice a week.
