A Seaside
Holiday with a Difference. Imagine waking up in a lovingly restored old-world
apartment, to a breathtaking view of the Kalk Bay Harbour.
Tumbling
out of bed to pop across the street for freshly baked croissants from the
Olympia Bakery, that well-loved Cape Town landmark.
Imagine
taking breakfast on your private undercover patio, wooden deck overlooking
the harbour or on the spacious and sunny window sill, watching the boats
and enjoying bustle of the the quaint village streets.
|
Beyond
that, the majestic mountains of Fish Hoek and Simon’s Town hug the coastline
and the blue, blue ocean where whales and dolphins play.
Its the
start of another perfect day at Harbour Place, a luxury apartment right
on the edge of Kalk Bay's colourful harbour. Harbour Place is not just
another plush seaside getaway. Safely nestled in the prestigious Majestic
Village, a unique 24-hour security village made up of several historical
Kalk Bay buildings, it combines the colonial charm of the elegant Thirties
with all the creature comforts of a modern beach house. |

The
Apartment:
Harbour
Place extends over a sizeable portion of the lower West wing of the original
New King’s Hotel on Main Road, Kalk Bay. Inspired by the unfussy, elegant
designs of the Thirties, its interior is an eclectic mix of Art Deco and
modern pieces, cleverly combined to create a space where you can relax
and unwind, without ever distracting from its truly special location.
|
Expect
to find high ceilings and exquisitely arched lead-glass windows framing
a charming and unusual view of the Harbour.
Feast
your senses on uncompromising luxury and quality - whether you're padding
on the Tasmanian Teak hardwood floors (complete with underfloor heating
for colder winter nights) or snuggling into 100% Percale, Hand-embroidered
Egyptian bed linen.
|
|
|
There
are two large bedrooms at Harbour Place. The main bedroom has a king-sized
bed with bathroom and toilet en suite, the second bedroom has two single
beds with shower and en suite.
A lock-up
safe and plenty of cupboard space ensure a safe and clutter-free stay.
Provision has been made for two extra people on a roll-out day-bed in the
spacious living area, should your party consist of more than 4.
|
|
|
With plenty
of restaurants within a 3km radius, you might want to side-step the kitchen
altogether.
But should
you yearn for some home cooking; the state of the art kitchen will get
your creative juices flowing. Equipped with ultra-modern appliances, including
a microwave, coffee maker and dishwasher, no expense has been spared to
make sure your time in the kitchen feels like part of your holiday.
|
|
|
The
kitchen window has a beautiful view over the bay, and incorporates a convenient
serving hatch which lets you pass those home-made goodies straight through
to your lucky guests salivating on the patio. Of course, your apartment
will be serviced daily, unless you'd like it otherwise, with fresh linen
changes twice a week. Personal laundry can be done in The Majestic Village
laundry room, a few metres from the apartment.

Things
to do in and around Kalk Bay:
When it
comes to art, antiques, books, music and good food, you'll have to spend
weeks in this little harbour village to experience everything! Plus, you'll
never need to get into a car... galleries, museums, fabulous (some of them
world-famous) restaurants, antique and craft shops are all within a 2km
radius.
|
|
| Should
you feel more energetic, you have several beautiful tidal pools and great
swimming beaches a shell's throw away. A 15 minute walk will get you to
the famous St. James swimming beach with its row of colourful change rooms
you've probably seen on many post cards.
The
beaches of Fish Hoek and Muizenberg are a 5 min drive away, or for those
who like a brisk walk, about 25 minutes' walk. Go cycling along the breath-taking
Cape Point route (Harbour Place is situated right on this route) or hike
in the beautiful nature reserve at the base of the mountain right behind
the apartment.
Living
the Village Life:
As
a guest at Harbour Place, there are many treats in store for you. Your
holiday apartment is part of The Majestic Village, a cluster of beautifully
restored old Kalk Bay landmarks and buildings which have been converted
into residential and commercial properties, all safely tucked behind an
elegant stone wall, enjoying 24-hour security.
The
Munnik Spa and Wellness Centre:
Enjoy
full use of the pool and wellness centre on The Majestic Village estate.
Situated in the original Ballroom of the old Majestic Hotel, the Wellness
Centre Boasts a mini-gym (to work off those fabulous Brass Bell meals),
steam room and sauna, 2 beauty salon cubicles where you can book and pay
for massages, facials and a variety of spa treatments as well as a Yoga
and Pilates studio.
Baby
Sitting and Child Minding:
Between
19h00 and 24h00, a baby sitting and Child minding service is available
at an hourly rate. It is run by Harbour Place's Manager, Suzaan Fourie,
a trained primary school teacher of almost 10 years.
The
Majestic Deli and Coffee Shop:
Stock
the fridge with yummy imported cold cuts and sausages, pickles, cheese
and peppers. Buy fresh bread and rolls, cold drinks, everything you need
for impromptu beach picnics. Or order good Italian coffee and a mouthwatering
piece of cake or a healthy salad from the Coffee shop.
The
WineSense Wine Bar:
Ever wished
you had the capacity (and money) to sample the pride of South Africa’s
and the world's wine estates in a short visit to the Cape? Well, now you
can. The WineSense Wine Bar on the Majestic Village Estate offers a new
concept in the enjoyment of wine. Equipped with “draft-style” wine dispensers,
it gives you the opportunity to taste several wines without having to purchase
an entire bottle. Of course, nothing stops you from buying an entire case
or two once you've discovered your favourite.
Kalk
Bay Books:
This quaint
book shop is located in the old “Klipkantien” (Stone Saloon), designed
by renowned architect John Parker and built in 1913. Here you'll find all
the holiday reading matter that really matters in a charming environment
steeped in local history.
