The Villa Royale luxury villa to rent in Cape Town is not only an architectural masterpiece but also one of our most stunning properties. Perched against the dramatic backdrop of the Twelve Apostles mountain range, Villa Royale is a timeless SAOTA original, meticulously preserved to honour its iconic 2008 award-winning design.
Full Description
Framed by sweeping views of Lion’s Head and the Atlantic Ocean, the villa effortlessly blends sleek contemporary architecture with luxurious finishes, creating a sophisticated retreat where indoor and outdoor living flow seamlessly together. Expansive floor-to-ceiling windows and skylights flood the interiors with natural light, while wrap-around terraces and open-plan living spaces invite guests to fully immerse themselves in the surrounding landscape.
Spanning multiple levels, Villa Royale offers an exceptional sense of space and comfort, featuring Seven elegant en-suite bedrooms, two state-of-the-art Poggenpohl kitchens, stylish lounges, dining spaces, and intimate study nooks complete with printing facilities. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with sun-drenched patios furnished with loungers, ottomans and alfresco dining areas seating up to 14 guests, alongside a gas barbeque and spectacular rim-flow swimming pools overlooking the ocean. The lower level is dedicated to wellness and entertainment, housing a fully equipped Technogym fitness centre, a professional chef’s kitchen, laundry facilities, staff accommodation, and secure garage parking for two vehicles.
Throughout the villa, carefully curated interiors showcase contemporary pieces from renowned international and local designers including Minotti, OKHA, Royal Botania and Arper, while striking artworks by celebrated South African artists such as Dylan Lewis, Lionel Smit and Bill Ainsley add character and depth to the space. Villa Royale is fully serviced, with a private chef, dedicated housekeeping and grounds team, and an on-call villa manager and concierge available to arrange every detail of your stay – from restaurant reservations and yacht charters to cultural excursions, chauffeur services and bespoke experiences.
