Experience the wonders of the Garden Route with Morukuru Ocean House as your base
Located within the 36 000 hectare De Hoop Nature Reserve, Morukuru Ocean House is an idyllic boutique hideaway, in pristine surroundings.
As the perfect halfway point along the Garden Route, Ocean House is ideally situated to explore the rest of this exquisite region, which is rich in activities.
Starting at the location of Ocean House, De Hoop Nature Reserve, here you are able to watch whales frolicking in the sea directly from the villa in season; there are various nature trails that can be explored on foot or by bicycle and the bird-watching is incredible. Add to this, sand-boarding down towering dunes and massages al fresco, there’s more than enough to keep young and old occupied right on your doorstep.
Once you are ready to explore a little further afield, the surrounding Overberg region has many amazing small towns to discover and activities to experience. The region is rich in award-winning wine farms, which make for a fantastic day out. For the experience of a lifetime, enjoy a helicopter flight from Ocean House directly to Delheim Estate, where you will enjoy a fine-dining lunch and wine tasting in a picturesque location with exquisite views, before heading back.
If you prefer a road trip, take a slow drive and visit the towns of Stanford, Caledon and Cape Agulhas, which is the Southern most tip of the African continent. Every town is unique in its own way, offering a variety of restaurants, shops, and activities to enjoy.
Further along the route, you’ll find Swellendam, a beautiful old town full of history, as it’s one of the oldest in the Western Cape. Expect lovely churches, amazing nature, quaint coffee shops and antique stores.
For those who enjoy a faster pace and being closer to the ocean, head up to George, Knysna and Plettenberg Bay – three of the most popular towns for local and international holidaymakers along the Garden Route. In all three areas you are able to swim, surf, kayak, take boat trips, fish, shark cage dive and so much more.
After a few activity-packed days, head back to the privacy of your own beautiful villa at Ocean House. Comfortably appointed with four luxury double suites, each with their own en-suite bathrooms, and an open-plan lounge and dining area, you will feel completely at home in your private villa. The views are unmatched, the location is idyllic, and a dedicated team of staff is on-hand to take care of your every desire – from cooking delicious meals to arranging activities.
