Amashe
Stylish coastal escape offering modern luxury, tranquil surroundings, elegant interiors, personalised comfort, and easy access to the Western Cape’s scenic attractions and experiences.
Overview
Perched where the rugged granite boulders of Bakoven meet the rhythmic pulse of the Atlantic, Amashe is a sanctuary of light and glass. It is a residence that does not merely overlook the ocean; it breathes with it. Situated in the most secluded enclave of Cape Town’s Atlantic Seaboard, this retreat offers a rare vantage point where the horizon feels like an extension of the living room.
The aesthetic is one of understated confidence—a curated blend of contemporary art, designer furnishings, and a palette inspired by the surrounding coast. Here, the typical vibrance of the city softens into a more intimate cadence, allowing the sound of the tide and the shifting hues of the Twelve Apostles mountains to take centre stage.

The Experience
A morning at Amashe begins with the soft chime of the Atlantic. After a coffee enjoyed on the expansive balcony, the day unfolds with a short stroll to the semi-private sands of Beta Beach, where the water is clear and the crowds are non-existent. As the afternoon sun warms the terrace, the glass walls of the villa disappear, inviting the sea breeze to circulate through the open-plan heart of the home.
The transition into evening is a ritual here. As the sun dips below the horizon, painting the sky in bruised purples and burnt oranges, the private jacuzzi becomes the ultimate front-row seat to nature’s theatre. It is a place for slow conversations over chilled wine, framed by the silhouettes of the mountains and the endless shimmer of the sea.
As evening approaches, the apartment transforms into an intimate observatory. After a day spent exploring the boutiques of De Waterkant or the galleries of the CBD, return to fire up the grill as the sky turns a bruised plum and the harbour lights begin to flicker. It is an experience defined by a sense of being 'above it all'—connected to the cultural heartbeat of Cape Town, yet cocooned in a silent, elevated world of glass and stone.
Luxury Accommodation
The residence is designed with a philosophy of fluid space and tactile luxury, comfortably accommodating up to five guests across three sophisticated en-suite bedrooms. The interiors marry cool stone floors with warm timber accents and crisp linens, creating an environment that is both indulgent and grounding.
The master suite is a masterclass in coastal elegance, featuring a king-size bed, a walk-in dressing room, and an open-plan sanctuary of a bathroom equipped with a rain shower and a deep soaking tub. Large glass doors offer direct access to the balcony, ensuring the ocean is the first thing you see upon waking. Two additional guest wings—one with a queen-size bed and balcony access, and a third tranquil queen room—provide private retreats for family or friends, each finished with hotel-grade amenities and smart technology.
At the heart of the home lies a chef’s kitchen, defined by a central cooking island and top-tier appliances. A hidden scullery with a dedicated ice maker ensures the aesthetic remains uncluttered, while the ten-seater dining table stands ready for long, catered luncheons.
