Experience Luxury:

 

Ellerman House excels in the emotional experience of guests. This experience has been intuitively built into every aspect of the hotel, offering an array of sensory entertainment. This can best be described as comfortable, visually pleasing and intuitive.

 

This historical landmark offers natural splendour, fine wines, exceptional cuisine and art treasures throughout the hotel. All rooms are en-suite and spacious. All have flat screen satellite TV, under-floor heating, air conditioning, Internet and a complimentary minibar.

 

Villa and Spa:

 

Perched on a promontory in the gardens of Ellerman House from where it has 180 degree sea views, Ellerman Villa takes full advantage of its breathtaking position with adventurous architectural proportions, minimalist decor and a stunning art collection.

 

With high ceilings, massive windows and vast teak decks, it feels as if the ocean is part and parcel with the design. With its own butler and chef, it has privacy and personal attention built-in exclusively for its guests who have sole use of all facilities while in residence.

 

Interior Features:

 

The expansive living area is open plan and flows outdoors. Windows peel back completely, opening up the lounge, dining room and study to the magnificent views.

 

A separate entertainment room, with flat screen plasma television and huge selection of DVD's and CD's leads into a high-tech stainless steel kitchen, fully stocked with delicacies from the best gourmet stores.

 

The Villa's three bedrooms are at the top of the house and are accessed either by lift or stairs. Each has a Hollywood-style bathroom with Travertine marble, spacious bath and shower, infinity mirrors, and is stocked with superior bathing products.

 

The main bedroom, with king-size bed, is decorated in aqua and cool creams, and is defined by a bathroom that opens out on to the sea.

 

The second bedroom, also with superb views of the sea, is dominated by a king-size bed, and has a striking Bali-style bathroom.

 

The third bedroom, on the south side of the Villa, looks on to the Twelve Apostles Mountains and has two single beds, both draped in plush burgundy and pale gold.

 

The ladies study - stocked with a library of books and all the latest magazines - has a single divan, which can be used for relaxing while reading.

 

The Ellerman Spa:

 

Situated on the ground floor of Ellerman Villa, Ellerman Spa offers guests of both Ellerman House and Ellerman Villa the opportunity to enhance their stay with a variety of wellness and beauty treatments.

 

Staffed by highly trained therapists and equipped with special treatment rooms, plus an infinity swimming pool, colour therapy steam room and an icy plunge pool for people using the sauna, it adds a special dimension to the Ellerman experience.

 

The Spa has two luxury sea-facing bedrooms that can be used either by residents visiting the Spa, or as additional accommodation for Ellerman Villa guests.

 

Food & Wine:

 

A wine collection of unparalleled standards and quality. 7000 Bottles, housed in a professionally maintained cellar, representing the very best wines from world-renowned estates of the Western Cape. A small and dedicated team of chefs have created a kitchen in which innovation, talent and the very best ingredients combine to seduce the most sophisticated diners.

 

World-Renowned Art:

 

The Ellerman House Art Collection distinguishes the hotel from other fine properties in South Africa. The Ellerman Contemporary gallery provides guests with a glimpse of the outstanding talents of local contemporary artists while completing those of the Masters collection in Ellerman House.

 

The custom-built gallery houses works by South Africa's finest artists. Carved into the slopes of Lions Head mountain, the gallery offers a unique sense of place and a magical encounter with some of the best creative minds.

 

Recognition:

 

Ellerman House was chosen as one of only three properties in Africa, the Middle East and Indian Ocean as 'best hotel for Service' according to the Conde Nast Traveller's Gold List 2010. The Independent recognised the property as one of 'The Big Six: Hotels with Art Collections'.
