Eco luxury is a collaboration of the best retreats in the world that have a conscience and are helping to preserve the areas that surround them. Eco Luxury allows people to book eco-conscious holidays without compromising on style and luxury.

Eco Luxury introduces four of its most exquisite private villas in Africa. All members of the Eco Luxury collection contribute to the area in which they inhabit and successfully combine all that eco with all that is luxury, demonstrating that the two can go hand in hand.

Three-Sixty House, Shompole, Kenya

Perched on the edge of the Great Rift Valley, high above the Nguruman Escarpment, Thee-Sixty House offers stunning, 360-degree views of the African Savannah. This uninterrupted panorama, combined with the house’s own heli-pad, and its dedicated team of private staff, form the very definition of privacy and exclusivity. Three-Sixty retains the signature Shompole style of undulating white walls and multiple textures of natural quartz rock, bulrush thatch and smooth recycled fig wood.

The main mess area is completely suspended off the escarpment over a stunning free form pool with views across to Tanzania. There are two bedrooms offering over 5000sqft of space. The lounge area sits astride the swimming-pool, meaning icy relief from the Kenyan afternoon heat is literally just a step away.

The Presidential Villa, Azura, Mozambique

With an unprecedented combination of seclusion, luxury, and breathtaking beauty, the Presidential Villa is one of the most exquisite private residences to be found anywhere in the Indian Ocean. It boasts three bedrooms, a 16-metre infinity pool with views out to the Bazaruto Sand Dunes and a panoramic freeform shower in the master bedroom. For winding down after all this has been enjoyed, the Presidential Villa is also home to a tree-top lounge where the equatorial sunset can be soaked up whilst sipping a cold gin and tonic conjured up by the Villa’s own butler.

The Villa, Grootbos, South Africa

This villa leaves nothing to chance. Boasting not only six luxurious suites, satellite TV, and a swimming pool, but also a fully equipped office, internet connection, a BBQ area, a wine cellar, a media room, a gym, and so much more, guests are guaranteed to have every requirement catered for. With all this set against the idyllic backdrop of Walker Bay, an area hallowed by whale-watchers the world over, the Villa provides the ultimate mix of elegance, exclusivity and functionality. The private landing strip makes the Villa easily accessible without compromising its privacy, and the dedicated butler, chef, and guide will ensure guests every whim is satisfied.

The Zindoga Villa, Camp Jabulani, South Africa

The Zindoga Villa provides that highly elusive requirement which every family desires, but so rarely finds – elegance and luxury in a child-friendly environment. Two exquisite suites, a private heated plunge pool and a wooden sun-downer deck overlooking bushland teeming with wildlife leaves nothing to be desired by the parents. While an en-suite twin bedroom, a team of dedicated care-givers, and an exciting children’s menu will ensure any young children have the ultimate African experience without compromising that of their parents.
