1. A wedding anniversary to remember

When the years have passed and the love between you and your partner has deepened, why not celebrate your wedding anniversary in style with an unforgettable getaway?

Set against one of Cape Town’s most stunning sunset spots, enjoy the serene sound of waves and the company of your loved one, creating a truly unforgettable experience.

2. Honeymoon bliss

For couples looking to start their marriage with a unique adventure, a honeymoon safari in South Africa offers the perfect luxury experience. Imagine staying in an intimate, all-inclusive safari lodge, nestled in the wilds of Kruger National Park or the vast Sabi Sands. The luxurious accommodations feature private plunge pools, outdoor showers, and open-air lounges to take in the African sunrise and sunset. Embark on daily game drives to get up close to Africa’s iconic wildlife, and enjoy private candlelit dinners under the stars, creating a honeymoon that combines adventure and romance in the most luxurious way.

3. Babymoon escapes

Pregnancy brings excitement and challenges, making a serene babymoon the perfect way to prepare for your little one’s arrival. Escape to South Africa’s scenic winelands, where you can relax amidst stunning vineyards and enjoy gourmet meals. At Delaire Graff Estate, unwind with spa treatments designed for ultimate relaxation. This luxurious retreat offers peace, comfort, and rejuvenation, allowing you to embrace the anticipation of parenthood in the most tranquil surroundings. Every detail is crafted for your comfort, leaving you refreshed and relaxed before the journey ahead.

What better way to celebrate a milestone birthday than by embracing the outdoors – with a luxurious twist? South Africa’s stunning landscapes offer the perfect setting for glamping retreats that are as chic as they are adventurous. Head to the Cederberg Mountains for a unique glamping experience surrounded by breathtaking scenery.

5. From divorce to empowerment: The luxury adventure you deserve

While many might think of weddings as the most celebratory occasion, divorce can also mark the beginning of an exciting new chapter. Celebrate your newfound freedom with a luxury retreat designed for reflection, empowerment, and adventure. Escape to a tranquil wellness retreat where you can focus on yourself, your well-being, and your future. Opt for a retreat that emphasises personal growth, meditation, and rejuvenation. Or, for something more adventurous, head into the wilds of the Eastern Cape for an exclusive safari experience. Whatever your preferences, this is your time to reconnect with yourself, indulge in luxury, and embrace your new journey.

6. Just because

Sometimes, you don’t need a particular milestone to justify a once-in-a-lifetime experience. South Africa is brimming with adventures that should be ticked off everyone’s bucket list. Consider indulging in a luxurious beach escape at a private resort, where you can unwind and relax. Spend your days lounging on pristine beaches, savouring delicious seafood, and enjoying experiences like private yacht charters or beachside picnics. With world-class service and uninterrupted views, this is the perfect balance of relaxation, indulgence, and breathtaking natural beauty, an unforgettable way to mark any occasion.

The value of luxury milestone adventures

Luxury milestone adventures offer more than just a getaway; they provide transformative experiences that create lasting memories. South Africa’s unparalleled beauty, world-class service, and unique offerings ensure every moment is unforgettable. Celebrate life’s milestones in style, and indulge in adventures that will rejuvenate you while creating memories for years to come.

About us

Actually, Home Food and Travel offers a lot more than just reviews of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.  We also visit great destinations, receive advice from interior designers and stop to smell the roses and taste the coffee.

Our team of journalists are seasoned travels and love visiting the myriad of exciting places around South Africa.  Whether it is off the beaten track or in the heart of the top attractions of the country, we’ll be there,

Home Food and Travel advice on finding the right accommodation

So what is the right accommodation?  Well more often than not, it’s your travel budget that dictates the type of accommodation that you choose. 

Expensive is not always better.  Our team at Home Food and Travel will tell you that they have camped in areas with limited ablutions and had a wonderful holiday.  They have also spent a night in a five star hotel only to be disappointed because their expectations exceeded the experience.

The reason for your travels will also affect your choice.  A business trip requires different amenities to a beach holiday. 

Our articles, reviews and experiences can certainly help you make your decision.

Restaurants with a good mix of service, food and ambiance

To my mind a great restaurant offers three things – excellent service, great food and a wonderful ambiance.  Of these, service is the most important. 

No matter that the food is delicious and the setting delightful, poor service can ruin the occasion.  However, great service combined with mediocre meal and a plane jane restaurant can still be a pleasant night out.

We’ve eaten in restaurants that are really dirty but with incredible food and couldn’t help but give a rave review.  We’ve also hardly noticed what we ate because the setting was just amazing.

However, the best restaurants come with the best of service, food and ambiance.

Spas are the ultimate relaxation aid

How do you know when you have had a great spa experience?  The answer, of course, is when you doze off on the treatment table. 

Well that’s our theory anyway.  It also doesn’t take a grand location with enormous facilities for a spa to be really good

A small, personal spa that is owner run can result in the best massage you have ever experienced.  However, the grand spas in five star hotels offer unsurpassed facilities in an environment that just makes the stress in your shoulders and neck melt away before you even finish checking in.

Adventure!

You don’t have to be an adrenaline junky to enjoy an exciting experience.  In fact, what are commonly termed adventure activities usually have incredibly high safety standards and unblemished safety records.

Ziplining, bungy jumping and shark cage diving are all very safe.  It’s just that our mind tells us we are craaazzzzyyyy to be doing this.

On the road to great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities

If you’re driving, be safe and make use of all the wonderful farm stalls that populate South Africa’s open roads.

If you overhear somebody asking a lot of questions or see someone taking photos of empty bedrooms chances are it’s one of our Home Food and Travel team members.

We’re out looking or those great places of accommodation, restaurants, spas and adventure activities.

See you on the road!
