{"id":"BZ-BRYW-ER","name":"Lekkerwater Beach Lodge","url":"https://business.co.za/company/lekkerwater-beach-lodge","description":"Set on an exclusive concession in the heart of De Hoop Nature Reserve, a scenic three-hour drive from Cape Town, Lekkerwater Lodge offers unforgettable ocean views and a world of coastal adventures on the doorstep. Spend your days exploring the inter-tidal ecosystem on interpretive marine walks led by expert guides or delve deep into the endemic fynbos vegetation that carpets the coastal dunes. Discover the rich archaeological heritage of the De Hoop coastline with evidence emerging that the area was crucial in human evolution. The reserve is a hotspot for birding, with a mix of coastal, fynbos and migratory species on offer. There is also the rare opportunity to view endangered Cape vultures at the Potberg breeding site close to the lodge. In winter, De Hoop offers some of the world’s best land-based whale-watching. Lekkerwater was once home to a presidential retreat – South Africa’s ‘Camp David’, if you will – and the reimagined beach lodge takes full advantage of the privacy and dramatic location of the original. At Lekkerwater – meaning ‘good water’ in Afrikaans – just seven suites are perched on the shoreline, decorated in a subtle coastal motif with open plan design and private decks offering a sense of light and space. With a rich history, rare fauna and flora, pristine beaches, and abundant sea life, the focus at Lekkerwater is on immersive nature-based experiences.","logo":"https://business.co.za/media/logos/n/81164.png","founded":null,"services":[],"industries":[{"name":"Hotels","url":"https://business.co.za/industry/hotels"},{"name":"Hospitality","url":"https://business.co.za/industry/hospitality"}],"location":{"address":"De Hoop Marine Protected Area","city":"Overberg District Municipality","province":"Western Cape","postalCode":null,"country":"ZA","coordinates":{"lat":-34.450233459472656,"lng":20.634653091430664}},"contact":{"phone":"0210011574","email":"reservations@naturalselection.travel","website":"https://naturalselection.travel/camps/lekkerwater-de-hoop/"},"links":{"facebook":"https://www.facebook.com/1527202610745690"},"rating":null,"verification":{"level":"Listed","steps":[{"step":"Listed","passed":true,"at":null},{"step":"Owner supplied","passed":false,"at":null},{"step":"Email verified","passed":false,"at":null},{"step":"Business verified","passed":false,"at":null},{"step":"Independently verified","passed":false,"at":null}]},"capabilities":{"specialisations":[],"serves":[],"customers":[],"worksIn":[],"lookingFor":[]},"certifications":[],"products":[],"prices":[],"provenance":[],"faq":[{"question":"What does Lekkerwater Beach Lodge do?","answer":"Set on an exclusive concession in the heart of De Hoop Nature Reserve, a scenic three-hour drive from Cape Town, Lekkerwater Lodge offers unforgettable ocean views and a world of coastal adventures on the doorstep.
