Eastern Cape getaways will fulfil the wildest expectations of any holidaymaker planning a trip to South Africa. The area is a combination of spectacular splendour and stark contrasts boasting a wealth of holiday experiences for beach goers, safari enthusiasts, luxury getaway fans or spa aficionados.
There is a wealth of flora and fauna to be seen in the Eastern Cape as well as "Big Five" (elephant, lion, leopard, rhino and buffalo) game viewing in a malaria-free environment. The warm Indian Ocean is ready for a range of beach and ocean activities in this coastal wonderland rich in marine life, abundant with dolphins and home to whale watching from the beach.
Ultra spacious, self-catering suites with beachfront status can be found at Diaz 15 House on the Bay. These suites are equipped with modern kitchens, patios and balconies overlooking the surfing hot-spot of Jeffreys Bay.
Here holidaymakers can live the good life, enjoying a barbeque while possibly seeing dolphins at play from the patio. On hot summer's days, guests can enjoy the pool deck with rim-flow pool overlooking the beach.
Five-star luxury along the Wild Coast can be enjoyed at the Prana Lodge. This luxurious hideaway is the ultimate in get-away-from-it-all holiday pampering. The suites have private gardens and plunge pools, the cuisine is truly exceptional and there is direct access to 21 kilometres of unspoilt beach.
More so, the Thai Wellness Centre and Spa provides treatments, yoga and meditation amidst serene settings allowing holiday makers to shed stress and rejuvenate their mind and body in peace and tranquillity.
Waterside sundowners and moonlit dinners on a peaceful citrus farm near Addo Elephant National Park can be found at the Woodall Country House & Spa.
As a prelude to a Big Five safari, with its own safari vehicle departing daily to Addo Elephant Park, Woodall is the perfect launch point with all the modern conveniences: on-site spa, palm-fringed pool garden, stylish lounges, library and an award-winning wine cellar.
The malaria-free Amakhala Game Reserve makes for great game viewing on an Eastern Cape safari getaway. Close to the Addo Elephant Park is the Safari Lodge, a romantic bush retreat offering superb wildlife viewing and air-conditioned suites with luxurious double baths and outdoor showers.
Game drives, river cruises and visits to the Addo Elephant National Park and Born Free Foundation make for excellent safari experiences.
Eastern Cape getaways are perfect for basking in the longest hours of sunshine along hundreds of kilometres of sub-tropical coastline, malaria-free Big 5 game-viewing and a host of fantastic holiday activities and experiences.
Contacting a reputable travel operator with a wealth of local knowledge will help holidaymakers get the most of their Eastern Cape getaway and find the best Eastern Cape accommodation at the most affordable price.
