Voëlklip Hemel is in the seaside town of Hermanus, and rests upon the cliff paths like an elegant, contemporary custodian of the coves, watching over the Atlantic’s waves.

There’s nothing like the sound of the ocean, wafting through the open doors and windows of your monumental ensuite bedroom, as you drift in and out of a dream. Like the seagulls are doing with the morning breeze. A gentle stirring of nature’s conversation, waking you up from your slumber. Time to head down the winding staircase, escorted by the ocean as you tip toe every step. Out onto the front deck and into the water. It’s just you and the whales, the dolphins, the sun’s rays and the scent of summer. Bobbing about in the swimming pool that merges with the horizon of blue. There’s quite simply nothing like that ocean sound, the scent that accompanies it and those never-ending views.

Settled upon the meandering cliffs of the old fishing village of Hermanus, this magnificent hideaway is the ideal spot for multigenerational family beach getaways. With its endless views of the ocean, the mountains in the distance and the Fernkloof Nature Reserve behind, the landscape will be the most treasured companion of the trip. Three voluminous levels of living, dining, entertaining, gaming, reclining, cooking, cocktailing and whale watching areas have been beautifully stitched together by the esteemed interior architect, Clifton Savage. With the owner’s stamp emblazoned across every layer of luxury that endorse the property’s name. As a large clan, you’ll spend most of your time on the deck, in and out of the pool and the jacuzzi. Gathered around the braai area or the 12-seater kitchen table. When the weather changes, the beautiful fireplace will be lit, flickering in sync with the rain dripping down the double window panes.
