About Villa Chad
A life lived in many places, built into one.
A life lived in many places, brought together right here. Actually, our story started long before Villa Chad…
Between us, we’ve lived across five continents, travelled widely and stayed in more hotels, guesthouses and strange little places than we can count. Over time, you notice what makes a stay memorable. And guess what? It is rarely just the room.
When we chose Kleinmond as home, Villa Chad became a collection of the things we value ourselves: AMAZING nature around, beautiful details, delicious food, a warm welcome and enough space to slow down.
Seven rooms, a tropical garden, a pool and a fireplace, with owners who are actually here 🌿💦🥰
The Rooms
One stay.
Three ways to experience it.
Villa Chad has seven rooms across three categories.
Each has its own character, but all share the same quiet, comfortable feel and access to the garden and shared spaces.
“This was the best stay we had during our one month trip in South Africa. Beautiful place, friendly staff, spotless rooms. The owners clearly know what they are doing. Hospitality with a capital H.“
“The backdrop of the mountains combined with the chirping birds made the location extremely peaceful. Suzanne and Ludvig are extremely helpful and friendly. I highly recommend this boutique guesthouse in Kleinmond.“
A beautiful villa at the foot of the mountains
The House
The lounge, fireplace, breakfast room and dining area flow into one another and out towards the garden. Find a quiet corner by the pool, read under the trees or sit by the fire when the weather turns.
Breakfast is served every morning. The rest of the day is yours 😍

Experiences
There is so much beauty right on our doorstep
Villa Chad sits between the Kogelberg mountains and the Whale Coast, surrounded by fynbos, ocean and some of the Western Cape’s best outdoor experiences.
From Villa Chad, you can:
🌎 Hike into the Kogelberg Biosphere
🌎 Horseride through the wild coastal landscapes
🌎 Visit the penguins at Stony Point
🌎 Go birdwatching or wine tasting in Hemel-en-Aarde
🌎 Watch Southern Right whales from the coast
And if doing absolutely nothing is the plan, the garden works too 🌿🤩
Horseback
Explore the Mountains.
Guided trails through the Overberg mountains, through fynbos and orchards..
Hiking
Walk into a UNESCO biosphere.
Trails from our doorstep into the Kogelberg, home to more plant species per square metre than almost anywhere on earth.
Wine
Hemel-en-Aarde, 25 minutes away.
The valley produces some of the country’s finest Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. We’ll point you to the right farms.
Whale Watching
The best seat in Africa.
Hermanus is one of the top land-based whale watching destinations in the world. Southern right whales arrive from June through November.
BOUTIQUE WESTERN CAPE
A slower way to see the Cape
Boutique Western Cape | 14 Nights is our handpicked self-drive journey through Cape Town, the Whale Coast, Overberg, Garden Route and Winelands.
We built it from places we genuinely know and love: independent stays, beautiful roads, good food, wine farms, wild landscapes and stops we would happily send our own friends to.
The route is already designed. It saves you months of figuring out where to go and what’s worth your time. Want to change something? We can tweak it! 🤓
“Every place we stayed felt right. Nothing felt random or overly touristic and there was a good variation in different types of accommodation and experiences. We could really tell Suzanne and Ludvig had personally selected each location and activity to create variety. This made a huge difference to the overall experience and it didn’t feel rushed at all. Yet we have the feeling we really saw all we had to see. – Floris and Monique, Tilburg, Netherlands.

“This place is great; we had a weekend with friends, and it was fantastic. At the same time, we could enjoy the common areas, but each of us had their own bedroom with a bathroom. We enjoyed their great breakfast. Despite the rain, the kids loved spending time in the house. A big thank you!” – Elsa, Airbnb
