Oceans Wilderness Villa: Luxury Stop On The Garden Route

During my wonderful time in South Africa I decided to drive alongside the famous Garden Route, a 300-kilometre stretch of the south-western coast. What a journey! And my first stop at the luxurious Oceans Wilderness Villa was the best beginning!

USEFUL INFORMATION

On a Tuesday morning, I flew from Cape Town to Port Elizabeth, where I rented a car at the airport. Only 1h20min flight, very easy! From the airport I drove for 4 hours to Wilderness, enjoying the fabulous landscape. The road was very easy and safe, I drove alone and I had no problems at all! 🙂

ABOUT WILDERNESS

As many of you asked me if “Wilderness” was actually the name of a town or “an adjective”, I’d like to clarify that Wilderness is a town in South Africa’s Western Cape Province, on a coastal stretch known as the Garden Route. It’s also home to wide beaches facing the Indian Ocean

Furthermore, you can visit the Wilderness Natural Park, part of the sprawling Garden Route National Park, habitat for wildlife including leopards, monkeys and eagles. Outeniqua Mountains and the Kaaimans River are definitely interesting to explore too!

OCEANS WILDERNESS VILLA

My first stop on the Garden Route was phenomenal… I arrived at the luxurious Oceans Wilderness Villa and my jaw dropped in front of its breathtaking sea-view!

This wonderful property is exactly like my dream-home: a majestic villa in front of the ocean, with a huge wide beach in front of it! You can literally feel the power of the ocean, my favorite feeling!

The villa has also a private swimming pool, where also kids can play safely. A nice spot to sunbathe too!

THE LUXURY SUITES

I had the pleasure to stay in the Sky Suite West, overlooking the ocean the entire time, with a fantastic terrace only for myself.

When I arrived, I found some chocolate and candies on my bed, so sweet!

The view from the terrace was really my favorite ever! And I cannot explain how strong was the sound of the ocean. Simply magical!

THE BEACH AND THE VIEWS

Literally in every corner you decide to chill in this villa, you get the best ocean views you can dream of! My favorite (probably) was the living room on the lower floor:

But also chilling on the terrace – near the dining area – was pretty amazing!
