Home description
Your perfect place in the sun! Villa Atlantica is all about views and space, both of which it has in spectacular abundance.
The house is perfectly located on the slopes of Signal Hill in Green Point, overlooking the Green Point Common in the foreground and the dramatic sweep of Table Bay. Watch the ships sail by Robben Island on their way into port.
If entertainment is your thing, you can't do better than this. Wonderful flow from the living rooms and bedrooms to huge, sea-facing balconies. Large, sparkling pool. Excellent security. Garaging for 3 cars.

The Western Cape region
The Western Cape is South Africa's premier tourist destination, famous for its stunning coastline and breathtaking scenery. When Sir Francis Drake first rounded the Cape in 1580, he famously described it as "The most stately thing and the fairest Cape we saw in the whole circumference of the earth."...
September to March is the peak season for good weather and for tourism. High temperatures range from 19º C in September (highest recorded is 33º) to 27º C in February (highest recorded is 38º C). In spring and summer (September to February) there is little rain, and strong south-easterly winds occur during November and early December.
Cape Town / Sea Point area
Cape Town is a sophisticated, cosmopolitan city at the gateway to a majestic continent. Warmed by the African sun, the city is dominated by a towering table-shaped mountain, set on a peninsula of soaring, rocky heights and lush valleys, where two great oceans converge.
The city is a melting pot of cultures and offers a wide range of activities that cater to the adrenalin junkie (sky-diving, mountaineering, shark-cage adventures) and those in pursuit of more leisurely activities like lapping up the sun on the golden beaches of Clifton and Camps Bay, or visiting the beautiful wine lands of Paarl, Stellenbosch and Franschhoek. You can also explore the city's rich history (The Castle, The Slave Lodge, The District Six museum & The Gold of Africa museum, to name a few). Take a ferry out to Robben Island to see the conditions under which some of South Africa's more famous freedom fighters, including Nelson Mandela, Walter Sisulu and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Albert Lithuli were imprisoned.
No visit to Cape Town is complete with out a trip around the peninsula, one of the most scenic drives in the world. Visit the Cape Point nature reserve, on the southern tip of the peninsula, and stroll among the penguins at Boulders Beach in Simonstown.
Sea Point, where Villa Atlantica is located, lies on the Atlantic Seaboard, about 5 kms from the centre of Cape Town and a few minutes' drive from Clifton, Bantry Bay and Camps Bay. Sea Point is known for its excellent restaurants and the world famous beach front promenade, which stretches all the way along the coast from the V&A Waterfront to Camps Bay. It is ideally situated as a base from which to explore the wonders of the Cape peninsula & wine lands.

Guestbook for ISLAND VIEW SELFCATERING VILLA
We stayed at Villa Atlantica for a week in January 2009 and found it to be absolutely ideal for our needs. It is a magnificent house and we loved the fact that we could prepare our own meals and come and go as we pleased. So much less stuffy than the guesthouses and B&Bs we've stayed at previously. Gary was a kind and generous host and went out of his way to make this the most memorable holiday of our lives. We'll definitely be back, and have already booked for next year. Richard and Janine Webster, Cambridge, England
