Ezard House

Set against the imposing backdrop of Lion’s Head with the Atlantic Ocean shimmering below, 20 Theresa Avenue, Camps Bay must be one of the most exclusive addresses in the Cape. Striking architecture, clean-cut lines and landscaped gardens combine with enigmatic views and beautiful surroundings to create a peaceful and secluded retreat in the heart of the city.

Ezard House is owned and managed by Manchester-born musician and conductor, Don Ezard, who designed, built and decorated his swish boutique hotel. It’s easy to see why Don fell in love with the location when admiring the uninterrupted eagles-eye view from the luxury of the rooftop jacuzzi. A grand piano graces the floor of the sun-drenched atrium and if you’re lucky, you may even hear the maestro himself tinkling away at the black and white keys. With an emphasis on custom-made furniture, thick cream carpets, crisp percale cotton linen and superb paintings in the eleven individually appointed suites… the result is plush yet uncluttered.

Meals are served in the dining room with views of the bay and the kitchen, where the in-house chef encourages guests to "ask for whatever you feel like".

A unique touch is the pillow library, where you are invited to choose your own pillow – that’s if you are not perfectly happy with the goose down pillows provided! A signature Ezard House scent is blended into the shampoo and soap and the Kanebo Wellness Centre completes the indulgent ambience.

Unwind in a serene setting, with open spaces and beautiful vistas – a haven offering complete privacy, but where you certainly won’t feel like a faceless room number.
