About this property
Stoeplife is a sun-and-wind-sheltered cottage in the heart of Kommetjie
Stoeplife — Your Cape Peninsula Hideaway in Kommetjie Stoeplife is not just a place to sleep. It's a way of being. Named after the Afrikaans word for stoep — that quintessentially South African covered porch where life slows down and the world looks better — this charming self-catering cottage in the heart of Kommetjie village is built around one simple idea: that the best moments happen outside, with good coffee, open air, and nowhere urgent to be. The cottage itself is cosy and thoughtfully designed. But the real living happens on the sun-drenched, wind-sheltered stoep — your private outdoor sanctuary where you'll eat breakfast, watch the light change over the Atlantic, and wonder why you ever thought a hotel room was enough. A Village That Has Everything — On Foot Kommetjie is one of the Cape Peninsula's most beloved and unspoiled coastal villages, and Stoeplife sits right in the heart of it. From your front door, everything is walkable: The beach is just minutes away — a wide, spectacular stretch of Atlantic coastline beloved by surfers and long-walk lovers alike. The famous Kommetjie Lighthouse is a short stroll down the road, one of the most photographed landmarks on the entire Cape Peninsula. The village itself offers a wonderful collection of coffee shops, restaurants and local shops — all within easy walking distance and all with that unhurried, end-of-the-road character that makes Kommetjie so special. And then there is The Kom — a sheltered tidal pool where the otherwise bracingly cold Cape Atlantic warms up to something far more inviting. It's the perfect spot for a morning swim without the shock of the open ocean. The Details
Self-catering cottage, fully equipped Sun and wind sheltered private stoep Walking distance to beach, lighthouse, restaurants and The Kom Safe, walkable village environment Pet friendly Perfect for couples, solo travellers and surfers.
