Hovering over False Bay with panoramic views of mountain and sea, the enchanting and luxurious Villa St James is a historical national monument built in 1850. It was once home to the British admiralty; the Greek royal family and League of Nations founder Jan Smuts. The Villa St James' tranquil, romantic, rejuvenating and inspiring beauty is ideal for holidays, weddings, honeymoons, special events, and conferences. Though the Villa is self-catering and an oasis of privacy, it is maintained at all times by a courteous and professional staff. Accommodation is available by room or by the villa. Fine catering is available on the premises by superb local chefs.
The Villa accommodates up to 20 people in eight large bedrooms with extra long beds and five bathrooms. Lavish appointments include Frette linens and towels and goose down duvets. Special details include colorful Moroccan kilims, full-length mirrors, art deco light fixtures, antique furniture and accents. Upstairs living quarters have direct access to the back garden. The bedrooms, each unique in character, are located upstairs and have sea and mountain views from one shared furnished enclosed terrace and several private balconies. Each room is named after the local African flower that best embodies the room's character. You can actually whale watch from each sea facing room.
