Nestled in the stunning coastal beauty of Keurbooms Beach, Whaleshaven Villa offers the perfect setting for a relaxing seaside escape. This contemporary beach villa boasts direct access to the beach via a private walkway, allowing you to enjoy long, peaceful walks along the shoreline or simply relax and take in the natural surroundings.
As you step inside, you are greeted by spacious, open-plan living areas that create a light, airy atmosphere. The heart of the home is the living room, where large stack doors open seamlessly onto the pool deck, inviting the outside in. A wood fireplace adds a cosy touch for cooler evenings, while the bar area is ideal for socialising and unwinding with a drink. The modern kitchen, with its open-plan layout and separate galley kitchen, is perfect for preparing everything from casual meals to family feasts, while the dining area, seating up to 12 guests, offers a wonderful space for shared meals and memories.
The villa offers five well-appointed bedrooms designed for comfort and privacy. Upstairs, the master bedroom enjoys a private balcony and a spacious ensuite bathroom, while two additional bedrooms, each with Juliette balconies, are found on the same floor. Downstairs, the garage houses a further bedroom, and across the courtyard, an annexe offers an extra bedroom with its own private courtyard, ensuring plenty of space for guests or family members to enjoy their own retreats.
Outside, the villa truly shines with its fantastic alfresco spaces. The pool deck, with a large private swimming pool and sun loungers, is ideal for soaking up the sun or taking a refreshing dip. For evenings spent outdoors, the pizza oven and wood braai provide the perfect setting for dinner, while the dining and sitting areas offer a relaxed atmosphere for all to enjoy. And for a memorable sunset experience, the rooftop deck, accessed by a spiral staircase, is the place to be. Complete with a gazebo, sitting area, and bar counter, it's a wonderful spot for sundowners while overlooking the ocean.
Whaleshaven Villa is the ultimate retreat, combining modern living with breathtaking outdoor spaces, making it the perfect getaway for anyone looking to relax and recharge in a beautiful setting.
