Cape Accommodation -
Isolated by majestic mountains, Kommetjie is delightfully rural and unspoiled.
Although being conveniently close to Cape Town, the atmosphere of Kommetjie,
even in peak season when holiday resorts are bustling, is one of peaceful
isolation. Sunset Beach House provides a free and happy
atmosphere, where sandy footprints on the floor are welcome reminders that
guests are at home, situated only 30 minutes south of Central Cape Town & the
Airport
With all its luxuries, this is your exclusive home where

to keep one alert to the environment. From the double doors the beach flows
into the sea. The lapping waves soothe the soul.
The sea breeze sweeps billows of white muslin into the dining room where a
sumptuous breakfast awaits the guests. Not just for newly weds - the honeymoon
suite is a rhapsody in white lace and cotton. It offers panoramic views of
sea and mountains.
The blue of the sea and the sky and the white of the beach
have found their way inside, in textured layers of lace and cotton, crisp
gingham and enveloping goose down.
