Recommandation de chambre
Quelle chambre réserver
The Ellerman Villa is a private two-bedroom sanctuary with its own pool, kitchen, and unobstructed ocean panorama — ideal for couples who want complete seclusion within the estate. In the main house, the Penthouse suite offers the most dramatic Atlantic views from a private terrace and sits at the top of the art-lined staircase. Both options deliver a sense of privileged intimacy impossible to find in larger Cape Town hotels.

Jour par jour
Itinéraire de 7 nuits pour votre voyage de noces
Arrival & Atlantic Sundowner
Arrive at Cape Town International and transfer to Bantry Bay, where the house manager welcomes you personally. After settling in, the infinity pool deck provides a front-row seat for one of Africa's great sunsets over the Atlantic, glass of Ellerman's own-label wine in hand.
Cape Peninsula Drive
Your private guide collects you for a full-day Cape Peninsula exploration: Boulders Beach African penguin colony, Cape Point, and Chapman's Peak Drive along sheer cliffs. Return via Constantia wine estates for a private tasting before dinner at the house's intimate restaurant.
Art Collection & Wine Cellar
Spend the morning with the hotel's art curator exploring the extraordinary collection of South African masters — Pierneef, Kentridge, and Stern among them. The afternoon belongs to the wine cellar: a private tasting and pairing lunch in the vault, guided by the resident sommelier.
Table Mountain & Spa
Take the aerial cableway to the summit of Table Mountain for panoramic views stretching to the Hottentots Holland mountains. Descend to the city for a leisurely lunch in the Company's Garden area, then return for a couple's treatment at Ellerman's discreet spa with Africology products.
Winelands Day Trip
A private driver takes you to Stellenbosch and Franschhoek — an hour from Cape Town — where the Cape Winelands reveal their finest estates. Lunch at one of the valley's celebrated farm restaurants before a cellar tour and tasting. Return along Helshoogte Pass as the mountains redden at dusk.
Camps Bay & Private Beach Club
A morning stroll along the Sea Point promenade leads to Camps Bay beach, with the Twelve Apostles mountains as a backdrop. The afternoon is at leisure — perhaps exploring the Waterfront's galleries or taking a kayak from Clifton beach. A private dinner on your room's terrace completes the evening.
Farewell Brunch & Departure
A final morning at leisure — perhaps a last swim in the Atlantic-view pool or a walk through the house's magnificent garden. The chef prepares a farewell brunch of Cape Malay flavours before your transfer to the airport, with the Atlantic glittering in the distance.
Évaluation honnête
Ce qu'il faut savoir avant de réserver
The pool and terrace face west for afternoon and evening sun — mornings can be cool with the Cape's 'southeast' summer wind.
Ellerman House's intimate scale means it books out quickly; the hotel does not have a beach, though Bantry Bay and Clifton are within walking distance.
Cape Town's high season (December to February) brings strong southeaster winds; the shoulder months of April-May and September-October are often calmer and more comfortable.

FAQ
Questions fréquentes
Good for honeymooners?
Ellerman House is South Africa's most prestigious urban honeymoon option. The combination of extraordinary art, exceptional wine, attentive service, and that Atlantic view creates a deeply romantic atmosphere. It functions essentially as a private mansion for its guests, with staff anticipating every need. Cape Town itself — mountains, ocean, wine country — adds magnificent romantic context.
Best time to visit?
October to April is Cape Town's summer, offering warm, sunny days ideal for beaches and outdoor activities. The shoulder months of October-November and March-April often provide the most pleasant weather without peak-season crowds or the intense southeaster wind. Winter (June-August) brings moody skies and whale watching season in Hermanus nearby.
Book in advance?
Yes — with only 11 rooms and villas, Ellerman House sells out 6 to 9 months ahead in the summer peak season. The Villa books even earlier. Mention your honeymoon at reservation for special arrangements, and ask about private dining and curated experiences.
Adults-only?
Ellerman House is not formally adults-only, but the refined, quiet ambience of this private mansion is entirely oriented toward adult experiences. Children are welcomed but the atmosphere is thoroughly romantic and unhurried.
Best room type?
The Ellerman Villa provides the greatest privacy and space for honeymooners — a completely separate residence with private pool. Within the main house, the Penthouse suite combines the best Atlantic views with a private terrace perfect for sunrise breakfasts and sunset champagne.
How to get there?
Cape Town International Airport is approximately 30 minutes from Bantry Bay by private transfer. The hotel arranges seamless airport transfers. From the city centre, Ellerman House is a 10-minute drive. International flights connect Cape Town to London, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Dubai, and major African hubs.
