Not a resort, not a hotel — a private estate with two houses that brings the raw luxury of the Cape coast to life. The 1,900 m² property borders Long Beach and delivers everything that makes a stay in the Cape Town region unforgettable: a heated pool under South African skies, a barrel sauna with ocean views, a braai terrace for evenings beneath the Southern Cross — and absolute silence. 350m² The House 70m² The Beach House 1.900m² Property ✓ Beach access ![Villa Austral – Garden view across the pool to the Atlantic at sunset](/assets/pier-Du90K-VV.webp) DIRECTLY ON THE BEACH Direct beach access to Long Beach on the Atlantic Coast Direct beach access Separate guest beach house Panoramic views of the Cape of Good Hope Private wellness area & sauna 1,900 m² fynbos garden Fireplace & braai area THE VILLA ### The Spirit of the Cape Villa Austral comprises two architecturally distinct buildings that nestle into the dune landscape of Kommetjie. The main house — generous, light-filled and spread across three floors — forms the heart of the estate. The beach house at the property's edge offers intimate proximity to the sea. Both share a pool, sauna and a garden shaped by milkwood trees and fynbos. #### The House Across three floors, the main house blends open living areas with private retreats. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the Cape of Good Hope coastline, while natural materials — stone, timber, linen — create an atmosphere that feels like home, not accommodation. 350m² Living Space 3 Floors 3 Bedrooms Sun terrace and balcony with coast views and sunrise Open fireplace and underfloor heating Combined living & dining area with bay window Designer kitchen with premium equipment Master suite with freestanding bathtub Heated pool in front of the sun terrace #### The Beach House The beach house stands at the very edge of the property, where the garden dissolves into the dunes. Two floors, its own fireplace, a veranda with ocean views — ideal for guests who want to wake to the sound of breaking waves. 70m² Living Space 2 Floors 1 Bedrooms Veranda with direct sea views Fireplace for cozy evenings Direct beach access from the property Panoramic windows with Cape coastline views Underfloor heating Cozy fireplace Self-contained with kitchen, lounge and bathroom [CHECK AVAILABILITY](/en/buchen) ![Villa Austral — Private estate with beach house, pool and ocean views in Kommetjie, Cape Town region](/assets/strandhaus-D2DGBfD1.webp) RENTAL ## Your retreat at the Cape Villa Austral is rented exclusively as a whole — both houses, the entire garden, pool and sauna are yours alone.

[CHECK AVAILABILITY](/en/buchen) THE REGION ## Kommetjie — Surfer's paradise at the edge of the world Kommetjie sits where the Cape Peninsula narrows and the ocean has the final say. A sleepy coastal village in the Cape Town region that draws surfers from around the globe — yet only 40 minutes from Cape Town's world-class dining, the Stellenbosch winelands and Table Mountain.

Morning surf at the Outer Kom, lunchtime penguins at Boulders Beach, afternoon wine in Constantia — and evening snoek off your own braai. [Discover all 26 activity tips →](/en/ausfluege) · [Restaurant guide →](/en/restaurants) · [Café guide →](/en/cafe-fruehstueck) ON THE WATER #### Surfing & Water Sports Kommetjie is Cape Town's surf mecca. The Outer Kom ranks among South Africa's finest right-handers, while Long Beach is perfect for beginners and families. Kitesurfing, SUP and kayaking through kelp forests are part of daily life here. NATURE #### Hiking & Cycling Table Mountain National Park begins practically at the doorstep. Trails through fynbos fields, along cliffs to Cape Point and over Chapman's Peak — one of the most spectacular coastal roads on earth. GASTRONOMY #### From Sea to Plate Here the snoek comes straight off the boat, the crayfish from the bay and the bobotie from grandmother's recipe. Cape Malay cuisine, braai culture and a thriving craft-beer scene make the region a culinary adventure. CULTURE #### Cape of Good Hope Where the Atlantic and Indian Oceans collide: Cape Point is just a 25-minute drive. The Slangkop lighthouse — South Africa's tallest cast-iron lighthouse — stands right in Kommetjie. BOUNDLESS #### Discover the Winelands Stellenbosch, Franschhoek and Constantia — the beating heart of South African wine — lie 30 to 45 minutes away. World-class estates, farm-to-table restaurants and landscapes that take your breath away. NEARBY #### Cape Town & V&A Waterfront The Mother City with its cosmopolitan flair, Zeitz MOCAA, Neighbourgoods Market and one of Africa's finest restaurant scenes is roughly 40 minutes by car. YEAR-ROUND #### Swimming & Beach Long Beach stretches for six kilometres — white sand, kelp forests in the shallows and the silhouette of Chapman's Peak behind. Villa Austral's direct beach access makes the walk to the ocean as short as the reach for your coffee cup. RELAXATION #### Sunsets & Silence When the sun sinks behind the Atlantic and kelp gulls wheel over Kommetjie, it becomes clear: this place was made for people who see stillness not as boredom, but as luxury. ACTIVITIES & SURROUNDINGS - Clovelly Country Club (18 holes) in 10 minutes - World-class surf spots right on your doorstep - Hout Bay harbour for boat trips - Kite- and windsurfing in Big Bay & Blouberg - SUP through kelp forests at Long Beach - Deep-sea fishing charters from Hout Bay [CHECK AVAILABILITY](/en/buchen) WELLNESS ## Rituals of Regeneration After a day in the Atlantic, the Finnish barrel sauna warms body and soul. The heated pool sits sheltered among milkwood trees, the outdoor shower stands under open sky — and for those who dare, the ocean is just steps away. Wellness at Villa Austral is not a programme; it's a rhythm.

Today we live in Berlin, but 15 years ago we fell in love with South Africa. And especially with Kommetjie: this raw, unspoilt surfer's paradise at the tip of the Cape Peninsula, where the Atlantic meets endless beaches and time moves just a little slower. With our three boys, we spend every free moment here — surfing at Long Beach, sundowners along the Slangkop coast and fresh snoek off the braai. We know the region inside out and love sharing our favourite spots with our guests.
