South Africa brings together big landscapes, brilliant food and special places to stay. Cape Town has Table Mountain rising behind the city and Atlantic beaches close by, with Camps Bay particularly well placed for days by the sea. Beyond the city, the Cape Winelands invite lunches among vineyards and mountain scenery. The Garden Route has a wilder feel, with Plettenberg Bay known for its beaches and Robberg Peninsula, while Knysna sits beside a lagoon surrounded by indigenous forest.
Our South Africa collection includes contemporary coastal homes, spacious retreats and safari stays, with villas with pools and plenty of family-friendly villas for groups looking for privacy and space.
Style and character are central to every Oliver’s Travels stay, and our villas in South Africa are no exception. Our destination experts know the country’s coastal cities, beaches, wine regions and wildlife areas inside out, handpicking homes for their setting, privacy and easy access to the best of the area. Once you book a holiday, our Concierge Service is here to help with planning and recommendations to make your stay truly extraordinary.
South Africa is good at giving one holiday several different chapters. Cape Town combines beaches and city life beneath Table Mountain, while the Winelands are a compelling excuse to slow down over excellent food and wine.
Along the Garden Route, days revolve around beaches, forest trails, lagoons and coastal nature reserves. Wildlife experiences bring another side to the country altogether, with safari stays giving you the chance to head out on early-morning game drives before returning to the privacy of your own accommodation.
Add whale watching, hiking and a food scene shaped by South Africa’s many cultures, and there is plenty here to build a longer trip around.
