Morukuru Beach Lodge is part of the Morukuru Family, a collection of stylish but understated boutique lodges and exclusive-use safari houses in South Africa. Nestled in a wild and raw reserve amongst 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. Voted “Best Resort in South Africa” by Condé Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards 2020 & 2021, it is an off-grid idyll for couples or small families seeking a pristine and private beach house experience. With just five private suites, all are modern and serene and fitted with floor-to-ceiling sliding doors that open onto a narrow balcony, revealing a 51-kilometre stretch of dunes and the ocean beyond. The entire lodge is angled to take in 360-degree views of its surroundings. Unwind in the hot tub, swimming pool or rooftop terrace that make for perfect sundowners. An outdoor firepit for the chilly evenings and ocean access is just a stone throw away. Remote, unspoiled, and off the grid, this is digital detox territory.
