Three-Bedroom Villa
The Hidden Retreat On Haumann offers a single three-bedroom villa with two bathrooms. Each villa includes air conditioning, a fully equipped kitchen with a Bosch induction cooktop and Samsung refrigerator, a washing machine, and a private outdoor swimming pool. Bedrooms feature quality cotton linens and soft towels. One bathroom has a rainfall shower and heated floors. The garden and terrace are accessible from the living area.
Dining
The villa's kitchen is stocked with basic non-perishables like salt, pepper, coffee, sugar, and milk to get you started. A dishwasher and Nespresso machine are provided. There is an outdoor seating area and a barbecue (braai) for grilling. The property is a short walk to Franschhoek's main street, where you'll find restaurants like Le Petit Ferme and The Tasting Room. No onsite restaurant.
Leisure
The property has a spacious garden with an outdoor swimming pool and a hot tub. Sun loungers are available (guests suggest bringing extra if more than four). The terrace offers outdoor furniture for relaxing. The pool is unheated but refreshing during summer. There is no gym or spa on site. The garden is secure and private, though construction noise from next door may occur.
Location
The villa is located 62 km from Cape Town International Airport, about a 45-minute drive. It is a 2-minute walk to the Franschhoek Wine Tram stop and a 5-minute walk to the town center's shops and restaurants. Secure off-street parking is available for two cars. The area is quiet and feels safe. The Pick n Pay supermarket is a short stroll away.
Free Parking and WiFi
Services include free on-site private parking, free WiFi throughout the property, and daily housekeeping upon request (no daily cleaning standard). The host, Danai, provides invoice and can accept deliveries before arrival. Check-in and check-out are flexible. There is an outdoor alarm, but no inside alarm system. Pets are allowed by prior arrangement. The villa is non-smoking and family-friendly.
“This place truly lives up to its tranquil promise, offering a spacious, elegant escape that feels remarkably secure and incredibly well-situated. It's a genuine surprise how seamlessly comfort, value, and an easily walkable proximity to town and the wine tram coalesce here. I certainly see myself returning for another stay.”
