Oubaai Villa

Hovering over the treetops above a ravine in a secluded corner of the Oubaai Golf Estate near George, this beautiful house is a dream destination for nature lovers (and golfers). Between mountains and sea, the sense of serenity and peace on this 546-hectare private estate is priceless. It’s a feast for the senses, from the call of the fish eagles in the river gorge below, the changing colours of the landscape throughout the day, to waking up to one of the most extraordinary views from your glass-walled bedroom.
