Upmarket holiday villas with a view of South Africa

With a wide variety of scenic landscapes to explore, travellers will revel in their stay in one of the many upmarket villas throughout South Africa.

Western Cape

Who doesn’t love Cape Town with its views of the statuesque Table Mountain? Enjoy spectacular sunsets over sandy beaches and boulders from your villa’s patio, or drink in warm Winelands views. This province stretches all the way along the Garden Route with its indigenous Outeniqua forest to meet up with the Eastern Cape at the Tsitsikamma forest.

Gauteng

Discover the heart of South Africa by visiting a villa in Gauteng – the smallest province in South Africa with the biggest population. Jozi, as Johannesburg is known amongst locals, has real soul. Learn about the roots of the human race at the Cradle of Humankind, which was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1999.

North West

From Gauteng, it is a short drive to take you to Pilanesberg Game Reserve, where you can explore the ecological richness of the area. Stay in a villa with a bush view and take day trips to experience the glitz and glamour of Sun City. If you prefer a water view from your upmarket villa, go for fishing, hot air ballooning or an aerial cableway trip at Hartbeespoort Dam where you will find luxury accommodation on the water’s edge.

Limpopo

Head north to Limpopo province to experience a villa vacation in the bush. Visit any of a number of private game reserves; various animal sanctuaries and of course, Kruger National Park. Discover the hiking trails and waterfall at Magoebaskloof from your luxury vacation villa.

Mpumalanga

The outlook is great at top spots such as Blyde River Canyon and God’s Window in Mpumalanga. Don’t miss the Lisbon Falls and the quaint little gold rush town of Pilgrim’s Rest while vacating in upmarket villas throughout this province.

KwaZulu-Natal

The warm Indian Ocean borders this lush province with its golden beaches. Here your vacation villa can be high up in the dramatic Drakensberg mountain range or right on the beach. The eco-sensitive estuary, St Lucia and the nearby Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park – one of South Africa’s oldest game reserves – are well worth a visit, as is a meander through the Midlands where you can discover a whole new facet of the Zulu kingdom.

Free State

This agricultural hub of South Africa – known as the country’s breadbasket because it produces more than 70% of the grain – is also home to the spectacular Golden Gate Highlands National Park and the Vredefort Dome, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Take in a view of this province’s grassy planes while staying in a luxury farm-style villa

Northern Cape

The largest and yet most sparsely populated province in South Africa is where Kimberley can be found – a treasure chest of the world’s most spectacular diamonds. Add to the mix the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, the Augrabies Falls National Park, Namaqualand with its shower of flowers in Spring and interesting wineries along the Orange River, you will discover this province offers varied views from a variety of villas.

Eastern Cape

Come and experience the cultural melting pot and birthplace of the iconic world leader, Nelson Mandela. A wide variety of attractions, cities, towns and villages await visitors who want to get a glimpse of beautiful beaches, game reserves, mountains and rivers and also, the vast Karoo with treasures such as the Owl House Museum in Nieu Bethesda.
