In the striking setting of the V&A Waterfront, it’s easy to lose yourself in the maze of gleaming marinas, docks, and canals. Whether you’re off on a yacht trip, windsurfing day, or hoping to see some marine wildlife in the Two Oceans Aquarium, this apartment is more than convenient for a waterside stay. And at less than a ten-minute walk from the Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art, you can flex a cultural muscle too.

From up on the second floor of this superbly modern block, you’ll love the views of the watery locale. It certainly makes it easier to plan the day ahead, choosing your next location from your balcony, morning espresso in hand. But the facilities here might also make you want to stay put. Keep up with your fitness regime in the residents’ gym, or take a swim in one of the heated pools. Your host can even arrange for massages, private chefs, and activities on your behalf. A truly VIP offering.

In the same vein, your apartment echoes a VIP lifestyle. Fresh and modern in design, you’ll find mid-century furnishings alongside cosy knitted beanbags, as well as huge glass sliding doors. Marble floors will keep your feet cool, while the stylish, understated colour scheme will help you stay zen in this otherwise vibrant neighbourhood.
