Luxury villas in Cape Town are widely considered the most sought-after of all accommodation for honeymoons in this part of the world… and for good reason too.

What better way to begin a brand new life together than waking up to a spectacular Camps Bay sunrise, or those picture-perfect views of the Atlantic Ocean below? If seaside bliss and state-of-the-art facilities seem like your idea of the perfect way to kick off your post-wedding adventure, then keep reading to find out how to choose your perfect luxury villa in Cape Town.

Cape Town Honeymoon Accommodation

From Clifton to Camps Bay; Bantry Bay to Bakoven, the glorious Atlantic Seaboard coastline is filled with the most gorgeous of all properties. These jewels in the Cape Town honeymoon accommodation throne boast the best views in town, but even more than that, they also ensure that every waking (and slumbering) moment is everything you could ever imagine it to be.

To help you find your honeymoon inspiration, here are some ideas on how to choose a romantic villa.

• Privacy – one of the many benefits of this type of accommodation is that there is a lot more privacy than you would find at a guest house or hotel. Essentially, you are hiring a ‘home from home’ – this ensures that you won’t have to worry about prying eyes or crowded pools.

• Location – you could look within the most well-known areas, or look just outside of Camps Bay for a quieter location that is still central and scenic. Llandudno, Bakoven, Bantry Bay, Hout Bay and Clifton are all idyllic options.

• Facilities – in many cases, honeymoon suites are given an even more special touch with the addition of high-end facilities such as spa bathtubs, private steam rooms, small plunge pools and other luxuries that add to your experience. Ask what you can expect when browsing options.

As for activities that you may want to try over the course of your honeymoon, you will certainly be spoiled for choice in this regard. Take a romantic horse ride along the beach in Noordhoek, or a helicopter flip over the city. Try a sunset champagne boat cruise, or a picnic in the famous Cape Winelands. Food, wine, music, laughter, culture and so much more is all on the cards once you’ve found your ideal Cape Town honeymoon accommodation!
