Renowned for its white stonewashed properties, seemingly endless blue waters and an atmosphere that screams: “I’m not going to lift a finger today,” it’s no wonder the Greek islands are a popular choice amongst holidaymakers.
Named after Icaria, an idyllic island nestled in the Aegean Sea, Icaria House in Bantry Bay perfectly captures the energy of the Greek Island it’s named after. Endless blue waters – check! The property boasts uninterrupted ocean views and a sprawling outdoor section from which to marvel at the dazzling African sunset as you watch the colours dance in the sky.
White stonewashed property – check! Icaria House is a gorgeous four-storey home that offers dramatic ocean views from every bedroom. The interior design is simple yet elegant. Are you on Santorini or in Bantry Bay? The white-washed walls offer an airy ambience, complemented by a few pops of colour throughout the home.
Tranquil atmosphere – check and check. Pick your favourite level and enjoy a quick tan on one of the property’s terraces before cooling off in the swimming pool. As the sun sets, pair the property’s picture-perfect views with a hearty dinner on one of the terraces – an incredible way to end the evening.
Transport yourself to one of the Greek islands when staying at this property. However, guests will need to stay a minimum of 7-nights, with the property flaunting a R32 000/ night price tag. But this is a small price to pay for luxury and tranquillity.
