Our point of view
We handpick homes with architectural character and a sense of place — ocean-facing decks, indoor-outdoor dining, tactile finishes, bedrooms dressed in hotel-grade linen. Every listing passes a high bar for design and comfort, so you can book with confidence rather than sift through hundreds of maybes.
Stays are shaped around you, from the first inquiry to a warm send off. A dedicated Travel Concierge matches you to the right home, confirms dates, and arranges thoughtful touches: pantry pre-stocking, a chef sizzling yellowtail on the coals, or a champagne cruise at golden hour.

Why book here (and not “just anywhere”)
Serious curation

You’ll have a capable human before, during, and after your stay. Your bookings, local experiences, and smart problem solving handled without fuss.Local intelligence
We live here. We know which tidal pool is wind-sheltered at 4pm, who pours a standout Overberg Shiraz, and when the lighthouse climb is quiet. Our FAQs page is updated with practical detail (routes, seasons, safety, remote-work tips).Peace of mind during outages
Solar-backed inverters keep the important things on, so dinner doesn’t go dark and video calls don’t drop.
Why one night isn’t enough
Cape Agulhas rewards unhurried travellers: slow mornings on the deck, an afternoon lighthouse climb, stingrays in the harbour at first light, and star studded skies once the village lights dim. With a chef at the grill and the ocean as your soundtrack, two to three nights feels like a minimum; a long weekend is even better.
Planning a broader loop? Agulhas sits neatly between Hermanus and Mossel Bay, making it a smart detour or book end to a Whale Coast or Garden Route itinerary —without adding hard miles.
