1. Bath in the bush
For an unforgettable honeymoon experience, consider the adults-only Hamiltons Tented Camp in the Kruger National Park. Nestled amidst pristine wilderness, this luxurious camp boasts exquisitely appointed tents with private decks overlooking the Nwaswitsontso River. Soak in the slipper bathtub, surrounded by the sights and sounds of the African bush, while the Big Five roam nearby. No cellphone reception ensures complete serenity!
2. Bathe against the city lights
Indulge in the ultimate urban soak at The Silo Cape Town, the most luxurious architectural landmark to grace the Cape Town skyline. The freestanding tub is positioned before floor-to-ceiling windows, offering unobstructed views of Lions Head, Table Mountain, or the Cape Town harbour.
3. Take a soak on the move
Train travel is making a comeback, and what better way to experience it than in regal style? The Rovos Rail boasts luxurious Royal Suites, each featuring a half-carriage dedicated to your comfort. Unwind in a Victorian-style bathtub, complete with a separate shower, toilet, and basin – a truly unique bathing experience on a journey through the breathtaking Southern African landscape.
4. Bathe with a breathtaking ocean view
For a coastal submerge, consider the 12 Apostles Hotel and Spa in Cape Town or the boutique gem Tintswalo Atlantic, perched on Chapman’s Peak Drive. Both locations offer stunning oceanfront suites featuring luxurious bathtubs positioned before expansive windows, allowing you to soak in the panoramic views of the dramatic coastline and the vast Atlantic Ocean.
5. A mountain getaway with a view
Escape the ordinary and experience the magic of an Insta-famous bath on the edge at Away with the Fairies Nature Lodge in Hogsback. This eco-friendly lodge offers various accommodations, ranging from self-catering cottages to budget-friendly dorm rooms and camping – proving that baths with a view don’t have to come with a price tag to match! The highlight is the lodge’s solo “cliff bath,” perched precariously on the edge of the Hogsback mountains, promising jaw-dropping views of the indigenous forests and the surrounding mountainscape.
