Serenity Villa (5 star) – 4 bedrooms – each with own suite bathroom
Enjoy 4 nights at Euphoric.
Being in the Cape, one of the world’s richest floral kingdoms, Serenity is grounded in its own little piece of virgin fynbos heaven. Untouched and unspoilt. Naturally beautiful in every way. A sun deck wraps around the perimeter of the villa, maximizing views of the Twelve Apostles peaks, Table Mountain, Camps Bay beach and the painterly sunsets that the Cape’s Atlantic horizon is famous for.
Located in the cosmopolitan seaside village of Camps Bay, Serenity is an easy walk to Cape Town’s best rated restaurants, vibrant beach bars and pristine palm-lined beaches. Camps Bay is internationally known for its startling natural beauty.
The patio opens out onto a white stone terrace with two green and beige couches and beyond an expansive L-shaped wooden deck with louynge chairs and a built-in barbecue. An eight seat dining table facilitates al fresco dining while a Jacuzzi is invitingly located nearby. The large pool is asymmetrically divided approximating to an L-shape while the perimeter is planted with bamboo. The views are of the Camps Bay beach extending to Lions Head Mountain.
The basement has an en suite guest bedroom, a lounge and wine cooler cabinet. A gym and games room are located here too while outside off a courtyard patio is a large steam room with shower.
Your stay includes a private chef, car, and driver/guide. All food, drinks, and entrance fees for tours and excursions will be at your own cost.

The Phinda Homestead http://www.phinda.com/safari-lodges/the-homestead.html
Phinda is set within easy reach of the Indian Ocean coastline and the famous Simangaliso / Greater St Lucia Wetland Park in northern KwaZulu-Natal.
Breathtakingly stylish and sophisticated yet refreshingly simple, The Homestead provides the ideal venue to reconnect with friends and family. Generous courtyards, ponds and living areas that open up to the landscape beyond embrace the surrounding bush, inviting it into the spacious interiors of The Homestead. Large sliding windows give a sense of space and light, and each ample room is dominated by breathtaking vistas of Africa. Beds are positioned to face the waking bush, so game viewing begins the second you open your eyes. There’s no need to jump out of bed early either – with a dedicated game ranger and tracker, as well as a private game drive vehicle, you set your own game drive times.
