Boasting a secluded setting in the pristine De Hoop Nature Reserve, Morukuru Ocean House is an exclusive-use beach villa that offers an unspoilt, private & luxurious stay.
Experience The area is renowned for its excellent land-based whale watching, but against the backdrop of flower-filled fynbos vegetation & distant purple mountains, De Hoop is also home to other animals like baboons, ostriches & eland as well as dolphins, tortoises & sea birds.
