About Grootbos Villa

Set apart and completely surrounded by pristine fynbos, the Villa consists of six elegant suites accommodating up to 12 guests. Here you can relax in over 1000 square meters of utter luxury and comfort, with your own private guide, chef and butler at your beck and call, not to mention complete privacy to enjoy all that Grootbos has to offer.

The elegant and spacious living spaces open generously to a combination of sheltered decks and courtyards, taking full advantage of the incredible views of the rolling hills of fynbos and white sand dunes with Walker Bay and the Hermanus mountains in the distance. And if you can take your eyes off the view for long enough, the walls and surfaces are adorned with large-scale artworks by South African artists such as Cecil Skotnes, J.H. Pierneef, Walter Meyer, William Kentridge and Walter Battis.

The tasteful décor and interior design is a seamless extension of the architecture, which is itself a veneration of the awe-inspiring landscape, creating a harmonious symphony of light, space and texture that encourages supreme relaxation and enjoyment.

Grootbos Villa Reviews

“My husband and I got married at Grootbos on the beach and it was wonderful! We could not have been happier or expected more. We rented the villa and enjoyed having our close family and friends share our day with us. Florentina and all the staff could not have been more helpful or attentive, they were fantastic and made our day very memorable. They took care of everything and made sure that everything was of the highest quality. The food was spectacular and the rooms were both spacious and luxurious. The view from Grootbos is spectacular and would highly recommend a trip to Grootbos.” –SSwainson

“I recently stayed at Grootbos Private Nature Reserve in the villa for 3 nights and found the experience to be absolutely amazing–not to mention enchanting! The villa was absolutely stunning and we were looked after each and every day by the attentive staff. For some of our lunches and dinners they cooked exceptional meals for us at the villa, so we never even had to leave our home (which is what it felt like, home). We enjoyed wonderful sundowners as we watched for whales, flew above the bay to watch whales from the sky, went on a flower safari, and enjoyed lazy afternoons by the pool, watching the sunset. I’d also like to note that the food was exquisite. Some of the very best I’ve had while on vacation! Thank you to the Grootbos staff and guides for taking such good care of us. I cannot wait to return!”  –Britt U
