Nestling in an almost secret location in Knysna

In 2008, Nelson Mandela made Pezula Private Castle his home for ten days of reflection and peaceful contemplation!

Located in Knysna, on the Western Cape’s famous Garden Route, this is Pezula Private Castle, an exclusive, ultra-luxury beach villa to rent. The Castle is situated directly on the secluded Noetzie Beach, voted one of the top three beaches in South Africa. You will live like royalty in this magnificent private residence, and enjoy direct beach access, spacious luxurious suites, all with their own terraces, and personal service from a dedicated team of staff including an executive butler and private chef.

All meals, house wines, local beers spirits, soft drinks, tea & coffee and dedicated houseman who lives on site.

The Castle complex offers five spacious luxury suites in three separate villas with sumptuous bathrooms, vast living areas and private terraces overlooking the ocean and beach. You can rent all three villas for a large group, or the individual castle villas.
