Les Cascades de Bantry Bay
Les Cascades de Bantry Bay
Perched on the hillside in one of Cape Town’s most exclusive residential districts, Les Cascades de Bantry Bay is an elegant home-from-home. With Lion's Head, one of Cape Town’s formative mountains, towering above and the sweeping beaches and crashing waves of the Atlantic Seaboard below, this is a fabulous city spot.
The décor is contemporary Balinese: dark stained wood, Indian slate terraces, black lined pools, lattice shutters, candle-filled lanterns, ivory parasols and earthy hues in the furnishings.
Combined with comfortable colonial furniture, high quality contemporary art and distinctive object d’art, the lodge is a stylish and relaxed place to stay.
The main lodge has six spacious and sophisticated en-suite rooms, with private sundecks and two shared infinity swimming pools seeming to cascading down the steep hillside between the hotel levels. The new Cascades at 52 offers equally breathtaking views of the Atlantic, and offers just 7 rooms on four floors, including a two-bedroom exclusive use suite with private pool. With a sleek modern design, Cascades on 52 is a more contemporary property in the Cascades Collection, whilst retaining the ethos of the original Les Cascades.
Luc and Els, the European owners of Les Cascades make hospitable hosts. Els is a fantastic chef and creates lavish meals. Sumptuous poolside breakfasts make a great start to a day exploring Cape Town, whilst sundowners and four-course dinners on the wide terrace afford good food to be enjoyed along with sweeping sea views. In winter, when warmth and intimacy are de rigueur, alfresco dining is swapped for cosy fireside suppers. The lively conversation and family welcome remain constant at all times.
Only a short drive from the V&A Waterfront, Table Mountain, restaurants, shopping, daytrips of Cape Town and the winelands, Les Cascades is a great base for exploring the city attractions and those further afield. Expert local advice is available from the staff and they will gladly help plan your stay and make arrangements for guests. The lodge has a luxury, chauffeur driven car that is available for airport shuttle, taxi service and guided tours. Attention to detail, personalised service and fine cuisine is the hallmark of The Cascades Collection
