MBIZI lagoon house - Four Bedroom House, Sleeps 8

Set directly on the lagoon front in Fisherhaven near Hermanus, Mbizi
lagoon house is a tranquil retreat that speaks to the heart. Here,
nature and freedom blend beautifully and almost any time of day, you
might spot South Africas only wild horse herd wandering past the
terrace or crossing the shimmering lagoon waters. When the water level
rises, graceful flamingos often join the scene, turning the landscape
into a living painting. Just beyond the lagoon lies the vast Atlantic
Ocean, with endless stretches of white sand beach perfect for long
walks, quiet reflection, or simply soaking in the coastal calm.

The house offers space for up to eight guests, combining openness,
comfort, and panoramic views that celebrate the beauty of its
surroundings. A full glass facade opens the home to the lagoon, ocean,
and mountains beyond, creating a seamless connection between indoor and
outdoor living. Guests can enjoy free WiFi throughout the property, air
conditioning in all main living and sleeping areas, and secure access
within a private estate offering 247 security and an alarm system
connected to estate services.

a gas fireplace, and a coffee kitchenette ideal for cosy evenings
overlooking the water. The master bedroom features a king size extra
length bed, two workspaces ideal for remote working, a private loggia,
and an ensuite bathroom with a freestanding bathtub and shower. Two
additional bedrooms, one with a queen size bed and hanging chairs

and chat while cooking.

Also on this level, the fourth bedroom opens onto a private terrace by
the pool, offering direct access to the deck and serene lagoon views.

outdoor dining table for eight, a large umbrella, and a special white
outdoor table with built-in ice compartments for keeping drinks cold
provide the perfect setup for alfresco meals and relaxing moments,
while the sky over the Botrivier Lagoon and Nature Reserve transforms
into stunning hues of gold and pink.
