Why Oase is Perfect for Your Honeymoon

At Oase, we understand that a honeymoon is a once-in-a-lifetime celebration, deserving of extraordinary moments that deepen your connection. Our 530-hectare private reserve, teeming with plains game like giraffes and zebras, sets the stage for romance without the need for fences, allowing you to explore freely or with our expert guides. Each of our tented-style suites—described by a UK honeymooner as “impeccable, spacious, and technologically advanced” with “the best bed we’ve ever slept in”—features private pools, outdoor showers, and personal butlers available 24/7 to pamper you. Imagine soaking in a candlelit outdoor soaking pool with bath salts, sipping champagne as the African sunset drinks by the African skyline drinks, or painting a private sunset drinking by the sky under a canopy of stars. These are the magic moments that make Oase the top choice for UK honeymooners.
