About villas in Africa
Africa is opening its doors to the world, welcoming travelers with a staggering beauty that's fresh and ready to be discovered. From the Mediterranean to the Atlantic and Indian Oceans, the continent's borders bind cultures, environments, sights and senses of every variety and experiences that you'll find nowhere else. Private villas are the perfect way to make yourself at home in Africa.
Villa Escapes currently features homes in Morocco and South Africa, two African destinations that couldn't be more different yet that share a history of hospitality sure to make your vacation a memorable one. Morocco, spicy and warm and full of culture, is an exotic place to visit but feels oddly familiar when you stay at one of our holiday villas. These homes are private and quiet oases in the midst of frenzied urban landscapes and mix modern touches in with the traditional. South Africa is the continent's rugged southern cap, home to some of its wildest landscapes as well as its most cosmopolitan city, Cape Town. Homes here are just minutes from beautiful beaches, restaurants and boutique shopping; set out in a different direction and you're rolling through vineyards or trekking across big game sanctuaries.
If you're looking for unique adventures in Africa, hike the Atlas Mountains of Morocco or take a camel tour of the desert. Sample fine wines in the South African valleys and watch elephants in their own habitat. If you prefer to stay put, then do just that and enjoy the peace and quiet as well as all the amenities of your private villa.
