Overview

Royal-Malewane-Africa-House-pool
We offer luxury villas in South Africa, as well as a select few in Malawi & Mozambique. As in Cape Town, they range from the sublimely luxurious, to family friendly, to seaside retreats.

Family Friendly

These villas, cottages or two-bedroom suites are spacious and comfortable rather than architectural icons. The key factor is that your family will feel relaxed here. These are not modest β€˜self-catering apartments” either. They offer a home away from home – with the level of luxury that suits your family. Options range from 2 to 4 bedrooms, ideal for larger family groups. Or two families travelling together.

Examples include Hawksmoor House, Belvidere Manor, Hog Hollow Villa, Three Trees Lodge at Spionkop.

Examples include La Residence Villas, Morukuru Ocean House, Bushmans Kloof Koro Lodge or Delaire Graaff.

Romantic Retreats

Villas & Apartments - Hog Hollow

These are romantic villas designed for couples celebrating a special occasion. it’s the sense of romance and ambience which sets them apart – rather than the size.

Examples include Babylonstoren, Kaya Mawa in Malawi or the Cottages at Coot Club..

Seaside Living

Villas & Apartments - Babylonstoren

These villas are right at the ocean for that carefree coastal vibe. They’re right on the ocean so that you don’t need to get into your car to enjoy the beach. Some are in South Africa. But we’ve also included some options in Mozambique and Malawi.

Examples include the Villas at the Plettenberg, Villa, Morukuru Beach Lodge, Santorini, Machangulo Beach Lodge and the Villa at Kaya Mawa in Malawi
