Welcome to 2023. It has been a busy Christmas and New Year for the Benguela Cove team and as we enter 2023, harvest has just begun, the vines are looking beautiful and the fruit is ripening to perfection.

We have so much planned for 2023 and we hope we can rely on your continued support.

Visitors to the residential and hospitality estate can now enjoy award-winning wines at the new oyster and seafood bar and restaurant, which resident chef Annie Badenhorst oversees. It is open seven days a week in the summer, from 10 am to 6 pm, and offers stunning views across the serene lagoon, which is separated from the Atlantic Ocean by a narrow sandbar.

Four villas are available for luxury stays - ideal for family holidays, staycations and wedding parties. The detached villas each have excellent Wi-Fi, a swimming pool, and every contemporary amenity, all within a secure private area on the estate. It's an ideal location too if you want to visit Cape Town, drive the Garden Route or visit wildlife game reserves.

Get your tickets now for Rocking the Lagoon - Month of Love Edition. Back by popular demand, the Cloud9 band is gearing up to take us on a journey of Rock n Roll through the years. Bring your dancing shoes and be ready to party.
