Perched gracefully on the lower slopes of Table Mountain, Higgovale is one of Cape Town’s most prestigious and sought-after residential enclaves. Quiet, leafy, and beautifully elevated, it offers a rare blend of seclusion and centrality—making it a favourite for discerning travellers who value both privacy and proximity.
This hillside neighbourhood is characterised by winding roads, lush vegetation, and architect-designed homes that capture sweeping views of the city, harbour, and mountain. Higgovale sits within the City Bowl, yet feels worlds apart. It’s removed from the noise and bustle, but just moments away from hotspots like Kloof Street, Camps Bay, and the Table Mountain Aerial Cableway.
Residents and visitors enjoy easy access to outdoor adventures—whether hiking directly from your doorstep or cycling through the scenic curves of the mountain roads. At the same time, gourmet dining, boutique shopping, and cultural landmarks are just a short drive or walk away.
Sophisticated yet grounded, Higgovale offers the ideal backdrop for a luxury stay that feels both deeply local and comfortably elevated. It’s where nature, architecture, and access harmoniously meet—an enclave for those who want Cape Town at its most refined.
Getting around Higgovale is a pleasure in itself. During the day, walking is a safe and enjoyable option, with nearby destinations like Kloof Street just a 10 to 15-minute stroll downhill. Kloof Street is a vibrant hub filled with artisan coffee shops, fine restaurants, boutique stores, and wellness studios. If you’re feeling adventurous, several popular Table Mountain trailheads, including the Pipe Track and Kloof Corner, begin just a short walk away, offering unforgettable hiking experiences with panoramic views of the city and coastline.
For longer trips or evening outings, we recommend using ride-hailing services like Uber or Bolt, which are reliable and inexpensive in Cape Town. Most destinations in the City Bowl, such as Camps Bay, the V&A Waterfront, or Long Street, are within a 10 to 15-minute drive. If you prefer to rent a car, keep in mind that Higgovale’s narrow, winding roads can be tricky for larger vehicles, but parking is generally available and secure.
Public transport is limited in this area, which is why many guests prefer private or app-based transport. If you’re seeking a more curated experience, Simplirent is happy to assist in arranging private drivers, guided tours, or even e-bike rentals—ideal for exploring the city at your own pace while soaking in its natural beauty.
Upon request, we provide carefully curated and vetted recommendations for in-house spa treatments, private chef services, guided cycling adventures, and other exclusive Cape Town experiences. Special requests are subject to availability.

About the area
Clifton, nestled along the Atlantic Seaboard in Cape Town, South Africa, is an exclusive residential area known for its stunning beaches and breathtaking scenery. This coastal gem is a favorite among both locals and tourists, offering a serene escape from the bustling city life while still being within easy reach of Cape Town's vibrant urban center.
The suburb is divided into four beaches, named from 1st to 4th, each with its own unique charm and character. These beaches are famous for their crystal-clear waters and soft, white sand, making them perfect for sunbathing, beach sports, and socializing. The beaches are protected from the strong southeasterly winds by the rocky cliffs, providing a calm oasis even on windy days.
Clifton's 4th Beach has the prestigious Blue Flag status, an international award recognizing high environmental and quality standards. It's a popular spot for yachting and has excellent facilities, including public amenities and lifeguards, ensuring a comfortable and safe beach experience.
The area is also renowned for its spectacular sunsets, where the sky and ocean are painted with hues of orange, pink, and purple. Visitors often gather on the beaches in the late afternoon to witness this daily natural spectacle, sometimes accompanied by impromptu drum circles and picnics.
For those interested in luxury and glamour, Clifton offers some of the most expensive and sought-after real estate in South Africa. The hillside homes boast incredible views of the Atlantic Ocean and offer a glimpse into the opulent lifestyle that Clifton residents enjoy.
While Clifton itself is primarily residential and known for its quietude, it is just a stone's throw away from the lively Camps Bay strip, where one can find a variety of restaurants, cafes, and bars. The bustling Sea Point Promenade is also nearby, perfect for a scenic jog or a leisurely stroll along the oceanfront.
For a more cultural experience, visitors can take a short drive to the nearby Bo-Kaap neighborhood, known for its colorful houses and rich Cape Malay heritage, or explore the iconic Table Mountain, which provides a stunning backdrop to Clifton's picturesque setting.
