Photos and Description of the Fish Hoek vacation house rental
A large family home very close to wonderful safe sandy beach.

Large family home, uninterrupted panoramic views of Sea and Mountain. Sheltered enormous veranda .The wonderful views by day, Watch the whales, By night fairyland with twinkling lights. Beach cafe, Surfing, sailing. Sunset horse rides on Noordhoek beach. Great restaurants, Cape point on the doorstep. Penguins close at hand at Boulders. Simons Town with quirky shops and Kalk bay with it's little harbour. Clovelly golf course, 18 holes surrounded by mountains and dunes. Stunning garden with tropical and indigenous plants. Secure within the mountainside with external security systems, security doors and windows and garage as well as off street parking. Maid service if required. The house is properly managed by a local agent on hand in the village. Amalfi is in fact perfect for a family holiday, we provide both High chairs and cots. Christmas trees and Decorations too, a real 'home from home.' Spend time exploring the Cape or just unwinding in the sun on the veranda or the beach

You just won't want to leave!: Our guests comment;

Amalfi is a super family home from home, set in a stunning location with the most amazing views. The house itself catered very comfortably for the 8 in our party (4 children under 10) and was well kitted out with lots of home comforts. There was plenty information leaflets regarding the surrounding areas, with loads to do. We were more than happy to sit on the terrace and watch the whales in the bay though! Sunset or sunrise I don't think I could ever get fed up of the view. All in all we had an fabulous holiday made that way due to the comfort and homely feel of Amalfi. Thank you! Lynn Robertson (Scotland) October 2007.

We had a great time at Amalfi, it was well equipped and in a brilliant location for our kids and the beach. The cafe did wonderful lunches. We spent time looking around the area and particulary enjoyed walking on the mountain and swimming with the penquins. We thoroughly recommend a holiday at Amalfi. Sarah Gates. November 2007.

About us: Amalfi is a family home not just a holiday rental house. We have both a local agent who oversees all our bookings to a high standard and also family living in the locality to give any advice or local tourist information. The grounds are carefully tended by our gardener and we ask our guests to feel free to water during hot weather. Gordon is an Architect and I am a teacher, Amalfi is our second home. We live in London with our 2 sons. We all miss Amalfi terribly and keep with us memories of meals on the stoep with friends. Mornings waking to the sun and the sound of the sea. I could go on..... and on! We hope you will see for yourselves and are more than happy to answer any queries you might have. Best wishes, Judi Jefferys

About Judi and Gordon Jefferys

Amalfi has been in our family for the last 40 years. It was very loved by my husband and his brother who grew up there. We bought the House from Gordon's parents 5 years ago and undertook a 'revamp' Gordon is an Architect but was also sensitive to keeping the integrity of the house intact. Gordon's parents still live in Fish Hoek village and do occasionally drive up the mountainside to 'boss the gardeners around'! We live in London and Gordon's brother and family Australia but we do try to use the house ourselves with our own families a couple of times a year.

Amalfi is Perfect!

Submitted: January 16, 2013 Stayed: December 2012
The house is perfect-only problem is that we should have booked 3 weeks! 2 weeks is not enough. We have been having the most wonderful holiday and are constantly amazed by the beauty of the mountains and the sea from the house. It has been a special New Year for us all to be together as a family and your house has made it so enjoyable. We have spent many hours sitting on the verandah having endless cups of tea. It is a very special place and we will all leave with many happy memories.

I doubt the words exist to adequetely describe the awe inspiring views from the patio, balcony of Villa Amalfi. I can scarce remember a more beautiful way to greet each day as iv'e experienced these last weeks. I have made it one of my solemn wishes to return to this place in the future. Family. U.S.A Fish Hoek beach is a real find with the children, we loved to hear the sound of it too! Farah and Hans, Belgium. Quite simply one of the most stunning places I have ever stayed. Lovely sheltered house. Jax . Oxford. Not enough pages or ink to write everything! Beautiful views, lovely house,would never get sick of it, peaceful evenings, OUTSTANDING!! family, Scotland. Enjoyed breakfasts on the stoep - inturrupted by mad dashes to grab the binoculars to catch sights of whales and Dolphins. Great house for a base to visit the penguins and other attractions. Ceri South Wales. Myself and my now fiancee will remember Amalfi forever as he proposed to me on the beautiful balcony upstairs with the beautiful view to top it all off. Very comfortable home with everything you could possibly need. Natasha. England. We had an absolutely fantastic stay, would definitely recommend - we'll be back! . family. England.
