Midnight Blue Ocean view home South Africa

Awesome host Beautiful home”

Midnight Magic !

This home was magical in every way. There were only 4 of us - two couples and one of the couples decided to elope during out stay and tied the knot three days later. We laughed that the Midnight Blue House and Gordan's Bay cast a spell on them. The house is incredible with fabulous furnishings, collectors's art and an amazing staff. The views were over the top from sunrise to sunset and the beach is a short walk. The owners were so very kind and hospitable and the housekeeper so kind and made the trip a delight. Thank you Winnie - we will be back! xo”

A wonderful modern house directly on the Gordon Bay waters.

My husband and myself stayed with 6 friends in this very modern style villa. We felt very safe, we enjoyed Cora our daily princess , we found privacy for each of us when we needed it and we took long moments to admire the artworks all over. The area is calm, but with delicious restaurants. We visited many places of Cape Town and the wineries of Stellenbosch, Franschhoek and Paarl. Golf courses everywhere made my husband very happy. We definitely would like to come back. Thanks to you Winnie!”

This property is absolutely jaw dropping, beautifully designed and featured in architectural magazines.

The pictures do not do it justice. You enter through the garage and as you round the corner to the kitchen it has a million dollar view of False Bay. We arrived at night and the lights of Cape Town (just across the bay) and surrounding areas were gorgeous. The property is located in Gordon’s Bay, a small town that provides several options for restaurants without going too far. We did not have good luck with all the options but standout recommendations are: Idiom (wine tasting and fabulous food) and De Brassarie in Strand across from main beach (reservations for outdoor seating is recommended). There are several outdoor sitting areas, two pools, and exercise equipment – we enjoyed hanging out on the patio just outside the kitchen. The wall between the kitchen and the outdoor area can be completely opened up by folding the glass panels (accordion style) which makes it feel like one huge outdoor area. Located just up the hillside from the water you have a great view to watch the wildlife including seals, schools of fish, and birds (maybe whales if you’re visiting at the right time). The bedrooms were well appointed with comfortable beds and apple tv’s; all of them had views of the ocean (some more than others of course). The house also had a pool table and several couches that were comfy enough to take a nap on – so much room you may not run into anyone else for hours! It has a wine cellar, 007 style hidden in a secret passage from the pool table area that goes under the house – a cave design with rock walls. Winnie, the owner, was very accommodating and a wonderful host! If there was a category for ‘super host’ she would be in it! She arranged for a cheese plate and wine to be ready for us when we arrived (which we devoured after a long day of travel, it was delicious!). She also accommodated us with a late checkout (7 pm!) and offered several complimentary bottles of wine for our stay. I can’t say enough good things about this house, the owner, or the experience we had during our stay! ”

Stunning artistic home in Gordons Bay

I would recommend this home to anyone going to Capetown. Even though it is 53 minutes from town it is close to the Garden Path and easy drive to Humanus Bay to see the whales and boutiques as well as to Cheatah Outreach and Stellenbosch wineries and town. Its a beautiful drive along the bay to Point Hope and Table Mountain. We truly enjoyed the days we decided to just "stay home". Thank you Winnie for all your hospitality of wine and gin and housekeepers. I would love to bring my sons back to this home. ”
