Jo Leo Villa – Camps Bay
A modern minimalistic retreat with sweeping ocean and mountain views
Jo Leo Villa is a refined five-bedroom sanctuary set in the peaceful enclave of Camps Bay, where minimalist elegance meets the effortless charm of a contemporary Cape Town beach house. Designed for guests who value space, tranquillity, and premium coastal living, this villa invites you to unwind beneath the dramatic silhouette of the Twelve Apostles.
The Space
Spread across two beautifully curated levels, Jo Leo Villa showcases panoramic mountain and ocean vistas from almost every room. Clean architectural lines, floor-to-ceiling glass, and modern coastal finishes create a serene and sophisticated atmosphere throughout.
Lower Level – Entertainment & Outdoor Living
The lower level is dedicated to relaxation and socialising, with an open-plan lounge, dining, and entertainment area flowing seamlessly onto a vast wooden terrace. Here, a rim-flow pool appears to merge with the distant ocean, while the outdoor lounge provides an ideal setting for sundowners.
Indoors, plush seating, a flat-screen TV, and air-conditioning ensure comfort year-round. The fully equipped kitchen—featuring sleek white and charcoal tones, premium appliances, and a breakfast bar—connects to a chic dining area with seating for eight and uninterrupted ocean views.
A separate fifth bedroom sits just off the outside deck with its own entrance, offering enhanced privacy for guests or staff.
Upper Level – Bedrooms & Tranquility
The upper level hosts four luxurious bedrooms, including an exquisite master suite with a king-size bed, open-plan bathroom, soaking tub, walk-in dressing area, air-conditioning, large-screen TV, and direct access to a private ocean-facing balcony.
All additional bedrooms feature modern finishes, air-conditioning, ample storage, and beautifully designed bathrooms in calming minimalist hues.
