Property information

Cape Gordonia is situated in Gordon’s Bay, boasting stunning views of the Helderberg Mountains with the ever popular, Blue Flag Bikini Beach located just across the road from the resort. A holiday here could be summarised as a picture-perfect seaside retreat, removed from the busy centre of Cape Town, but still close enough to explore the many sights and attractions of this fair city. The property itself is nestled within a Mediterranean style village, offering a number of quaint shops and seaside cafes to discover, while the old harbour and internationally-acclaimed South African Naval College in is located just minutes away from the resort. The luxurious and spacious accommodation at Cape Gordonia offers every amenity for a relaxed, self-catering holiday, even equipped with private Jacuzzis to add an extra touch of indulgence to each unit. The apartments are available in two configurations: 2-bedroom, 6 sleeper units which are sea-facing, offering a full kitchen, bathroom with shower, lounge and DSTV and a private entertainment area with a gas braai. The property also offers 3-bedroom, 8 sleeper units with sea views, a Jacuzzi, entertainment deck and charcoal braai area.

Neighbourhood information

Cape Town offers a myriad of things to see, do and experience as one of South Africa’s most vibrant, diverse and forward-thinking cities. From taking an exciting cable car ride to the top of South Africa’s most popular mountain, mingling with penguins at Boulder’s Beach, spending the day sampling some of the country’s best wines in Stellenbosch and Constantia to hiking Lion’s Head, market meandering and eating out at the country’s top restaurants and cafes – Cape Town offers up a slice of pie for all tastes. Gordon’s Bay offers tranquil escape from the hub-hub and bustle of the centre of Cape Town with its secluded bay and many family-friendly swimming beaches, charming cafès, pubs and quirky shops.
