With the month of love in full swing, those who find nothing more romantic than heading off to a lodge will be delighted to know that one of the world’s best is right here in South Africa, as spotlighted by the 50 Most Romantic Hotels in the World ranking!

 

Kruger National Park, South Africa (06 February 2025) — We all have different ideas of what romance should look like. But, whether you’re a sucker for freshly picked flowers, thoughtful acts or big romantic gestures, we can all fall in love with the news that one South African lodge has been listed amongst the world’s most romantic hotels!

While Cape Town has basked in the spotlight of multiple World’s Best lists recently, this romantic destination ranking hails from another part of South Africa.

The Outpost Lodge in the Kruger National Park has been listed as one of the most romantic hotels in the world, per a recent report by Big 7 Travel as the sole South African spot listed.

Praised for its boutique bungalow-style accommodation, delicious views of a valley of baobabs and the Luvuhu River, as well as the opportunity to enjoy wildlife like elephants playing from the comfort of your balcony, it’s no wonder that this is a honeymooner’s favourite.

With ample chances to relax, reconnect with nature and even enjoy a leopard sighting, romance is said to be well and alive in this pocket of the Kruger.

The Outpost Lodge shares the list with numerous other hotspot romantic hotels from around the world, ranging from glamping pods in Iceland that give visitors a front-row seat to the Northern lights to breathtaking Jamaican gems surrounded by white Caribbean sands and sea.
