The end of the year presents the perfect opportunity to leave the uncomfortable moments of the year behind by visiting a tourism destination, enjoy the thrill of nature by watching animals in their natural habitat, go hiking, enjoy some luxury accommodation, sit by the beach and soak in the sea, explore the retail markets for some goodies and retail therapy, visit a social club for a drink as you mix and mingle and generally catch up with friends and family. South Africa’s travel and tourism scene caters for different income groups and interests. The Western Cape in particular is the place to be for fun and a relaxed ending of the year as well as a spectacular and memorable entrance to the new year. 
Why should you venture out? Service to country
The travel and tourism industry has been one of the worst hit by the Covid-19 pandemic. With restricted travel measures, many travel related businesses have closed down with many still struggling to stay afloat. This has led to loss of employment by employees in this valuable economic sector. This situation places a great responsibility on everyone with the means to travel and spend some money to do so. Every trip taken out of the comfort zone translates into saving struggling tourism service providers and employees who depend on these service providers for income.
One tourism destination which has gone the extra mile this year to ensure travellers can put the stress of the year behind them in a Covid-19 secure environment is Sky Villa. Sky Villa has applied the best expertise to ensure health protocols are observed while making sure that the end of the year is fun and memorable. Sky Villa offers unrivalled luxury accommodation at affordable rates. This 5-star hotel located on a hilltop with great views of the ocean, mountains, lagoon, lush indigenous gardens and excellent facilities offers the best relaxation and socialising scene. The great views around this facility away from the hustle and bustle of city life is what makes this destination so sought after by local and international travellers. The hospitality and expertly designed living and socialising spaces are a notch above the rest. 
The Presidential Suite and Honeymoon Suite both offer the added feature of an open plan lounge area with a fireplace. You don’t need to worry about fluctuating weather conditions which come varying temperature changes because these rooms offer you air conditioning & heating facilities. You are also provided with bath robes, beach towels, complimentary toiletries, DSTV and Showmax as well as Netflix on a flat screen TV, a hair dryer, a heated towel rack, access to a mini bar, Nespresso, WIFI, private patio, pure cotton percale, sun deck and security. On warm days you can take a dive in a clean and well-maintained swimming pool. Luxury, comfort, serenity does come any better than this with regards to luxury hotels in Plettenberg Bay.
Beyond the comfort of the rooms, this area has enough things to do and explore. You can consider an Offshore Adventures ‘Swim with the Seals’ experience, where you’ll get to swim with the Cape fur seals. An upgraded Gary Player golf course is not far from the hotel to cater for your golfing needs. This classy golf course was upgraded from 9 to 18 holes and overlooks the Keurbooms River. Wildlife and nature lovers will be glad to know that they can enjoy one-of-a-kind encounters with wildlife. These encounters include a fun-filled day trip to Monkeyland, Birds of Eden and the Jukani Wildlife Sanctuary. Monkeyland offers you a rare glimpse of various species, namely: capuchin monkeys, vervet monkeys, gibbons, squirrel monkeys and many others. A safari drive is a wonderful way to get back to nature and up close to some of the most awe-inspiring sights in the world while still being able to recharge your batteries. Your stay at Sky Villa can’t be complete without a boat cruise on the Keurbooms River. You can take time to refresh your mind by paddling and wrap up the day with a glass of wine or your favourite beverage on the beach while soaking in the scenery.
