This beautiful beach bungalow with a granite seawall on two sides has an uninterrupted view across the waters in front to Lions Head and behind is the magnificent world heritage site of Table Mountain.
To enjoy this magnificent setting, the beach bungalow is fitted with glass windows on every side. Landscape wonders like Lions Head are visible from the kitchen, living room, main bedroom and even the bathroom!
The beach bungalow physically abuts the sea such that indoors you feel very much part of the outdoors. You can slide back all the glass doors and then the house becomes part of the rocks, beach and seascape.
Luxurious but not pretentious – the house blends into this environment and allows you to experience it in the most relaxed way. The beach bungalow is private when you want it and is open to nature as and when you wish it. It is very green as well (solar panels, water recycling).

BAKOVEN’S BIG SISTER – CAMPS BAY
In Cape Town, we are spoilt for choice when it comes to beautiful beaches. Whether you’re in search of a quiet day spent by the water or a buzzing spot to surf the waves, the Cape Peninsula offers something for everyone. To help with the decision-process, we’ve shortlisted some of the top beaches that every visitor must experience:
Camps Bay beach is the beach to see and be seen. Boasting some of the most beautiful views and people, it’s likened to the St Tropez of South Africa. The white sands and sparkling waters are set against the iconic Twelve Apostles mountain range making it truly unique in its situation. With a palm-tree lined street reminiscent of the famous Beverly Hills, it is undeniably one of the hottest seaside locations to visit. The road running the length of Camps Bay beach boasts a diverse restaurant strip with an interesting mix of gastronomic influences. On any given day, you will see athletic young individuals involved in an energetic game of volley ball, bold surfers, attractive sunbathers and enthusiastic Frisbee games. Being quite protected from the wind, the sea is often calm and thus ideal for swimming and other water activities making it well-suited to family outings.
