Carlo and Liz
Welcome to Villa Puccini, an exclusive boutique guest house situated in the leafy suburb of Claremont. This elegant home, surrounded by lush greenery and tree’s offers a unique hideaway where comfort, elegance and attention to detail are paramount. The epitome of a luxury boutique guest house, ideal to combine business with pleasure.
Your hosts are the highly talented and artistic Cape Town couple, Liz and Carlo Puccini. Carlo is a South African born of Italian parents and throughout their marriage Liz has embraced everything Italian – culminating in their joint creation of the stunning Villa Puccini. The Guest House embodies the couple’s respective heritages and skills – Carlo’s Italian background and practical technical ability and Liz’s English background and life-long interest in music, art and beautiful things. Having semi-retired from the wedding business, Liz turned her hand to creating the Villa Puccini, a high-end boutique Guest House that is stylish, luxurious and most definitely Italian! She has lovingly restored the beautiful Italian chandeliers that hang in each room down to the last crystal and gilded and restored the mirrors that hang in each room and throughout the Villa itself. Her work is based on detailed research, as well as her own innate flair and eye for what is pleasing and beautiful. Above all, Liz and Carlo are a warm, friendly and enthusiastic couple, keen to share their knowledge and love of the Cape and to ensure your every need is catered for while you stay at the Villa !
We are in walking distance of Claremonts Cavendish Square shopping center, the Newlands Rugby and Cricket stadiums , Kelvin Grove and the Sports Science Institute. Schools close to us are Rondebosch Boys, Bishops and Rustenburg Girls HIgh,
