It is ideal for large families, friends and groups seeking a high-end, yet relaxed, private and intimate location for time together, special occasions and/or retreats.

We are making significant efforts to reduce our environmental impact both behind the scenes and in your guest rooms. We hope that you will share our vision to protect our planet and help us to maximize a sustainable and clean environment.

Swimming Pool & Gardens

Set over 2100 square meters of land, the lush gardens will enthrall you with their white roses, grand weeping willow, unobscured views onto Constantia’s Green Path where you will encounter the occasional horseback rider and the beautiful swimming pool around which your family will relax and play. Most of the water used for the garden and pool is rainwater, as well as borehole water. We try to minimize their uses in order to preserve our environment.

Living Room & Patio

The holiday villa in Constantia boasts two different living rooms, one formal, and one more casual which includes an indoor barbecue. Both enjoy the comforts of working fireplaces and both overlook a serene covered patio equipped with a rustic outdoor dining table and lounge chairs.

Kitchen / Heart of the Villa

The kitchen is a unique three in one kitchen, dining room and second living room lighted by the gentle glow of a huge fireplace. It is the place where everyone meets when not outside by the swimming pool.
The kitchen comes fully equipped with oven, micro-wave, pantry, washing machine, pots, pans and silverware for all. We will offer you filtered water from our borehole, and locally sourced organic and OMG free produce, preferably in glass, paper or cardboard. We will also really appreciate your assistance in helping us recycle our trash.
