Description

Situated 50 m off the beach with private beach access, 8 on Penguin, as a 2-bedroom apartment with secure garage parking, provides the most beautiful, uninterrupted views of Table Mountain and the sea. The Melkbos lights at night provide a perfect setting for sundowners with a comfortable indoor braai overlooking the ocean. The apartment is located in Van Riebeeckstrand, Melkbosstrand.

The apartment can accommodate up to 4 guests and comprises 2 separate bedrooms, 1 bathroom, and an open-plan kitchen and living area. The main bedroom has a queen size bed, whilst the second bedroom contains 2 single beds. The bathroom is fitted with a shower, a toilet and a washbasin. Each bedroom has its own built-in cupboards.

The kitchen is fully equipped for self-catering and contains a stove, oven, fridge-freezer, microwave, washing machine, cutlery and crockery. There is also a dining area with an indoor braai for those lazy afternoons of sipping champagne whilst overlooking the ocean. The lounge has a comfy lounge suite from which one can view the ocean whilst sipping on an early morning cup of coffee, or catch up on TV channels offered on the Smart TV, such as Netflix, YouTube and all the usual channels of a smart TV device. DStv may be accessed using your own login details. The apartment is equipped with free Wi-Fi access.

The apartment has secure garage parking downstairs. This provides easy access to the apartment above through the garage's covered stairway. An upstairs balcony provides for seating outdoors. There is also sufficient storage area downstairs should guests be wanting to store their kites or windsurfers, bicycles or any other sporting equipment.

The apartment is ideally located 50 m from the beach favoured by kite surfers and windsurfers alike. From the apartment one can see the ocean conditions ideal for these sporting activities. Easy private access to the beach allows for long walks north or southwards for an ice-cream on the main stretch of the beach.

Breathtaking sunset views, coupled with the whale and dolphin sightings provides for a very relaxing atmosphere and allows one to chill completely.

The apartment is also ideally located for traveller's wishing to visit the beautiful spring flowers at the West Coast National. There are also local wine farms in Darling to visit for a scrumptious lunch in the warm afternoon sunshine.

From the apartment one has an uninterrupted views of Table Mountain, Blouberg Hill and Robben Island in the background. The apartment is an ideal holiday vacation for any family or group of friends and provides a secure base from which the beauty of Cape Town can be explored in its entirety.
