Reserve your stay

Modern Italian romance, on the slopes of Signal Hill

Ortigia takes its name, and its spirit, from the small island of Ortigia off the coast of Sicily — and channels that same romantic, classic sensibility into a considered, modern Cape Town setting. Amazing views of the city and Table Mountain follow you through the apartment, from the bedroom, the lounge and the kitchen, while your own private entrance opens onto a private courtyard with a plunge pool and unrivalled views of Lion's Head — the kind of spot made for slow, lazy summer afternoons with nowhere else to be. Set back on a tranquil, private road with its own security, Ortigia offers the rare combination of a quiet, secluded setting with the city right at your doorstep, finished throughout with high-end, considered detail.

Tamboerskloof, Cape Town
