With views across the Noordhoek valley to the Atlantic Ocean, African Violet has six luxury self catering apartments. Each well-equipped apartment is private, and has its own outdoor area, and the use of the communal pool. The honeymoon Terrace Suite has a Jacuzzi bath and a private infinity pool. Well positioned in Cape Town you can visit Cape Point, Table Mountain, V&A Waterfront, Robben Island, Kirstenbosch and the wine lands, and drive 10 minutes to beaches of your choice. Free wifi. Off street parking. Personal attention and advice to assist with your daily plans. Perfect for couples - romantic.
Rob built African Violet Guest Suites from scratch(it was virgin property), spending much time planning and sketching, and then transforming the property before our eyes. We are always improving and upgrading. We want our guests to have a memorable experience - and want to come again! It is great, too, having the 'master' handyman readily on hand to do maintenance.
Shops are close and fabulous restaurants are located literally all around the peninsula - so happy eating and drinking (we can arrange taxis) We are easy access to Cape Point, penguins, Kirstenbosch, Hout Bay, Table Mountain and V&A Waterfront
