Pembroke 104

A beautifully appointed, spacious and tranquil canal-side apartment, with massive windows opening onto a full-length view of Table Mountain from the open-plan lounge, and Signal Hill from the en-suite bedroom. Contemporary in feel, original artworks and Eames-style cane aviator chairs will fire your wanderlust, while natural-fibre soft furnishings and a Poggenpohl kitchen equipped with Míele and Zwilling amenities will keep you deeply content to make Cape Town your home from home.

This immaculate apartment has a lovely leaf-shaded balcony, with the use of a kayak tied alongside the wooden jetty below.

Watch for the flight of the graceful grey heron from the wraparound balcony, as the canal turns from malachite to copper at sunset. Drift off to carefree sleep with the windows open, and on a morning charmed by birdsong, discover the allure of the Waterfront Marina.

Situated in the heart of Cape Town's working harbour with the dramatic backdrop of the majestic Table Mountain, the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront is widely acknowledged as Cape Town's premier shopping and tourist destination and a well known entertainment hotspot. Here, an innovative fusion of history and modern convenience has resulted in a multi-purpose, dockside environment unlike any other in the world. Cape Town's new International Convention Centre is just up the road. The luxurious self-catering apartments on the water's edge at the new Waterfront Marina development offer the discerning tourist privacy and easy access to the best of what Cape Town has to offer.

Abounding with upmarket shopping, excellent restaurants, museums and breathtaking views of the magnificent inimitable Table Mountain, it is the ultimate place to base one-self in order to see and do as much as possible in Cape Town. A ten minute drive will take you to the Cape's most famous beaches and the city is within walking distance.

Within walking distance are also 70 restaurants and bars, 190 specialist stores as well as delicatessen, winery and supermarkets, live theatre, cinema and amphitheatre featuring music concerts, drama and dance performances.

The V&A Waterfront is 20 minutes drive from the Cape Town International Airport and 300 meters from the entrance to the N1 highway.
