A HIDDEN GEM ON THE GARDEN ROUTE
Situated in the heart of the De Hoop Nature Reserve on the iconic Garden Route lies the Morukuru Beach Lodge. Part of Relais & Chateaux, the Morukuru Beach Lodge offers a luxurious and exclusive oceanfront escape for those on a self-drive adventure along the Garden Route or for those looking to relax at the halfway point between Cape Town and Knysna.
Voted as ‘South Africa’s Leading Beach Hotel’ by the World Travel Awards consecutively between 2020 to 2023, the Morukuru Beach Lodge is comprised of five bedrooms, each of which is equipped with huge bay windows that overlook the crashing waves of the Indian Ocean, the natural shrubland fynbos and pure white-sand dunes. The five rooms include two Ocean View Family Suites and two Ocean View Suites that feature their own private balconies, as well as the secluded Honeymoon Suite with its own private deck and outdoor bathtub.
The De Hoop Nature Reserve is a great place for those seeking an immersive and adventurous coastal nature experience. Sandboard across the white-sand dunes, hike and cycle along the stunning nature trails, embark on a whale watching excursion for the Southern Right Whales visiting from Antarctica and end your days with a leisurely sunset stroll along the spectacular South African shoreline.

We had a wonderful safari experience in South Luangwa, Zambia this September. Despite a few unexpected setbacks behind the scenes, everything ran seamlessly for us. Our driver and guide were outstanding, and the standard of accommodation was truly first class.
