On the Water + By the Sea + Magnificent Mountain Views. Place yourself between ocean, lagoon and glistening mountains and you will arrive at Mosaic, a secluded gem on the famous Whale Coast, 2 hours SE of Cape Town, South Africa. For the ultimate private getaway, Lagoon Lodge captures the essence of tranquility with just five safari style suites woven into an ancient milkwood grove on the edge of the Hermanus Lagoon. A pampered stay here is all-inclusive of meals, adventure activities and house beverages/wine/beer/spirits. Fabulous massage, skin and nail treatments can be indulged in at the Mosaic Spa (either indoor or outdoor), using organic Rain Africa products (additional charges apply). Mosaic offers the most multifaceted experience in the area with 1000 hectares of conservation land on the beautiful Hermanus Lagoon. Activities at Mosaic include being immersed in awesome fynbos flowers and bird-life of the Cape Floral Kingdom, lagoon cruises, stunning beaches, fascinating marine life and some of the world’s most beautiful wine lands. This is topped off with warm smiling staff serving fresh cuisine paired with delicious South African wine. Mosaic is centrally located to whale watching, marine tours, shark cage diving and exploring the Overberg Wine Region. It is the perfect location for nature and activity lovers. At Lagoon Lodge, stone and glass walls open onto private decks for spectacular mountain views and bird watching. Soft bedding lies beneath romantic netting where one falls asleep listing to owls and wakes up to the sound of the African Fish Eagle. Each room has a bathtub large enough for two and a private outdoor shower for an African bush experience. Lagoon Lodge has only five chalets beautifully built safari style with stone and thatch harvested from Mosaic. A king bed or two twins can be accommodated. Rooms include pure linen & cotton towels, organic Rain bath amenities, ultra soft bathrobes, coffee plunger, bar refrigerator, wine, sherry and fireplace. Boardwalks under a canopy of ancient Milkwood trees lead to the lounge where drinks and meals are shared outdoors or by a fireplace that will warm your soul. A heated plunge pool overlooking the mountains is a favorite place to spot favorite water birds. And as evening falls, exquisite colors of the sun setting over the lagoon and the glorious expanse of the star-filled South African sky are witnessed. The cuisine at Mosaic is fresh, delicious and the creative mastery of our chef, our baker, our gardener, and local producers. Breakfast is a hearty fare with freshly baked muffins, homemade jams, fresh fruit and a hot meal. Lunch is served gourmet picnic style outdoors or around blazing fires when there is a chill in the air, at the Lagoon Cafe in the historic 1892 Spookhuis. Sumptuous dinners are prepared by our chef and built around organic vegetables from our garden and local seasonal ingredients…and best paired with fine South African wine from the Mosaic cellar!
