Villa Blaaskans, 3 bedroom family friendly villa
Looking for the perfect luxury villa that’s also perfect for kids? Villa Blaaskans was made for families, by a family. As parents ourselves, we know how important it is to have the right facilities when traveling with children. That’s why every detail of Villa Blaaskans was designed with families in mind: a place where parents can truly relax, and kids can feel right at home.
This family-friendly bush villa combines privacy, style and comfort with all the conveniences families need for an effortless stay. With 3 bedrooms and space for up to 4 guests, Villa Blaaskans makes your holiday both comfortable and unforgettable.
Step inside and feel instantly at home. The villa features three spacious bedrooms, all with air conditioning and fans, ideal for restful naps and peaceful nights. There are two modern bathrooms, including one with a bathtub, and refreshing outdoor showers that are perfect after a warm day in the bush.
The open-plan kitchen is fully equipped with high-end appliances such as a gas stove, oven, fridge, Nespresso machine and microwave. There’s also a separate utility room with a dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer, everything parents appreciate when traveling with kids.
Travel light: a baby cot, high chair, baby carrier and stroller are ready and waiting, so you don’t have to bring your own gear. With excellent fiber WiFi throughout the villa and terrace, staying connected or streaming your kids’ favorite shows is effortless.
The heart of the villa is its bright, social living space with a large dining table indoors and another on the terrace, perfect for long, relaxed family meals. The outside area is a true highlight: a private heated pool where kids can splash around, a traditional South African braai (BBQ) and a beautifully situated boma firepit that’s perfect for storytelling under the stars.
You’ll enjoy complete peace and quiet, surrounded by nature, with breathtaking views of the Drakensberg mountains. The villa layout offers privacy between the main bedroom and guest rooms, making it ideal for families.
Safety and comfort come first. The villa is fitted with a full backup battery system, ensuring electricity during outages, and the estate is fully secure. And yes, giraffes, zebras and impalas really do walk by your terrace.
Need a little adventure? The area is packed with fun activities for kids, from animal encounters to outdoor exploration, and the Homes of Africa hosting team is happy to help arrange anything you need.

Klasse Haus mit spannender Lage inmitten des Parks
Relativ nah am Krüger Park, was Tagesausflüge möglich macht. Ebenso nah am Blyde River Canyon und den Drakensbergen. Sehr große Terrasse mit Pool, was für einen entspannten und komfortablen Aufenthalt im Freien sorgt. Ab und zu gab es mal einen Stromausfall auf dem ganzen Gelände, aber nur für wenige Stunden. Sehr unkomplizierter und einfacher Umgang mit der Verwaltung vor Ort. Wir können des Haus wirklich weiterempfehlen.
