Morukuru Beach Lodge Last-Minute Special: 28% Off

De Hoop Nature Reserve, along the scenic Whale Route, is a lesser-known seaside sanctuary characterised by a dreamy vlei and vast, wide-open spaces. It is also home to Morukuru Beach Lodge, a faultlessly five-star escape that has been carefully designed to maximise – and respect – its spectacular surrounds.

The hotel lies on a sliver of prime seaside real estate characterised by towering sand dunes, limestone cliffs, striking fynbos and a stretch of Indian Ocean that becomes a daily playground for dozens of southern right whales every year between August and November.

There are five beautiful rooms (four face the ocean, and one boasts mesmerising dune vistas) fitted with floor-to-ceiling sliding doors that open onto a narrow balcony, revealing a 51-kilometre stretch of beach and the ocean beyond.

28% off Last-Minute Special

From now until 31 August 2022, the lodge is running an incredible Last-Minute Special: from R4 200 per person per night (28% off) for a minimum stay of two nights. These rates are valid for last-minute bookings only (four weeks before arrival). Children under two years stay for free; children under 16 years sharing with two adults in the Ocean View Family Suite pay R1 800 per night.

MAKE A RESERVATION

While you’re there

After easing into the day with a scrumptious breakfast, there’s the option of joining one of the knowledgeable guides for a marine walk, relaxed dune stroll, or an excursion to the nature reserve. There’s no pressure to go along, but the guides are fonts of information, so it’s worth it. Swimming, snorkelling, bike rides and sand-boarding are also on offer.

A sea-facing daybed, cosy fireplace and lounge area make it hard to leave your room, while the communal tea-and-coffee nooks with dune-facing chairs and a well-stocked bookshelf conspire to keep you cossetted.

And, of course, there’s the pool deck, complete with a hot tub – the only place to be on chilly evenings…
