Shades of warm grey and charcoal complement this warm and intimate space with a distinct feel. This room has no terrace and no ocean view.

 

SUPERIOR HOUSE ROOM
Sun-filled and inviting, this room features some of the best ocean views through the large bay windows. This room has no terrace.

Snuggly adjacent to the Ellerman House Spa, the Deluxe Spa Rooms have a front row seat to the serene infinity pool overlooking the Atlantic Ocean. The two rooms feature double sliding wooden doors that open to a shared pool and deck.

 

DELUXE HOUSE SUITES
Each Ellerman House Suite has a spectacular ocean view, private terrace and a separate lounge and dining area. These large rooms are the epitome of luxury and comfort showcasing prized paintings and sculptures by South African artists.

 

VILLAS
Entirely separate from Ellerman House yet on the same property, two exclusive-use, privately staffed villas offer all the benefits of being attached to a small hotel with the advantage of complete privacy and flexibility and are perfectly suited to families or friends. Built on multiple levels with en-suite bedrooms, spacious entertainment and relaxation areas, and private infinity pools, each villa epitomises the glamorous beach lifestyle for which Cape Town has become famous.

 

VILLA ONE
Multi storey, three-bedroom villa (with option of additional two bedrooms on SPA level). Spacious, contemporary architectural design. Includes a private lounge, entertainment room, dining room, kitchen, library, study, elevator and private deck and pool.

 

VILLA TWO
Multi storey, spacious, ultra-modern three-bedroom villa. Includes a private deck and pool, open plan living with dining room, kitchen and private cinema.

 

DINING
As guests enjoy panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean, the team of dedicated chefs, lead by Executive Chef Grant Daniels, delight with vibrant South African inspired recipes. Extraordinary attention to detail has always defined the dining experience at Ellerman House and Grant Daniels brings his classically inspired style with a nod to his Cape Malay roots to guests at Ellerman House. Growing up on the Cape Flats, just outside Cape Town, Grant’s passion for cooking was sparked by spending time in the kitchen with his mother while she prepared traditional Cape Malay dishes for Sunday lunch.

 

SPA
Situated on the lower level of the Ellerman House Villa, the Ellerman House Spa is an opportunity to experience true relaxation and well-being while rejuvenating body and mind. The facility includes two single treatment rooms and one double treatment room, plus a sensation shower, sauna, and steam room.

 

POOL
Located on the lower terrace of the hotel, the lap pool is heated by heat pump and solar, to a temperature between 19 and 24 degrees Celsius.

This pool is perfect for guests who enjoy a swim as part of their workout while enjoying great views across the Atlantic Ocean.
