As the cold winter evenings set it and couples look for the perfect getaway, look no further than these five romantic getaways destinations in the Cape.

On Jetsetting with Janet, host Janet Pillai speaks to five guests in the tourism and accommodation industry on the benefits of a romantic getaway.

Julu Guest House

Situated among the vineyards in Riebeek Kasteel, Julu Guest House is an ideal place to stay if you’re looking for modern and “cozy” accommodation.

Founded in May 2021 by owner David and Makhosazana (Max) De Wette Dludla, their country villa was built with love from their 28 year relationship.

KumbuKumbu Lodge

Overlooking the Poortjieskloof dam in the Montagu mountains, KumbuKumbu Lodge was a dream realised by Owner Ivonne Koen and her husband.

“The dream for a private and secluded couples retreat originated many years ago when my husband and I were looking for a wedding anniversary breakaway in nature, away from all the hustle and bustle. When we bought the farm in this beautiful Montagu area, we decided to build what we couldn't find,” she said.

Oceans Boutique Guest House

Duty Manager Temwani Mngoma said this luxury Hout Bay hotel is situated on the scenic southern slopes of Table Mountain, surrounded by panoramic views of the Table Mountain National Park.
