YOUR LITTLE PIECE OF GREECE ON THE WEST COAST
CLUB MYKONOS RESORT
“Meraki” [may-rah-kee]
- A modern Greek word, difficult to translate into English.
Meraki is to do
something with all your heart and soul, creativity and love. It is leaving a
little piece of yourself in everything that you do.
I recently spent a weekend at Club Mykonos - Located
on the serene shores of the scenic Langebaan
Lagoon along the beautiful
West Coast, this premium family
friendly holiday resort offers guests three tasteful accommodation offerings
from Athenian
Cascades, The Terraces to the elegant
comfort of the four-star Preferred units. There's also private Marina Village - an exclusive once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for a shrewd investor to become the proud owner of the 16 prime properties situated right on the water and overlooking the beautiful Mykonos Marina.
ClubMykonos delivers an abundance of entertainment options and it’s true when
they say this place will definitely transport you to your very own Greek
paradise. Once inside, you will have all the entertainment, activities and
facilities you would need to make your vacation a fun and memorable one!
To be honest, I had only heard about Mykonos in Greece
until this year in April when I met the marketing team from Club Mykonos at the World Travel Market in Cape Town. The
place immediately caught my attention and I was already planning my trip to the
West Coast but my busy schedule kept pushing the date. I guess the timing was
just not perfect!
When my Travel Manager asked me to research
about unique destinations and tour activities around the Western Cape, and to arrange exciting overnight tour packages for local and international travellers,
Club Mykonos resort immediately came into my mind. I made arrangements
with the resort marketing manager and I was on my way to the West Coast, just
1 hour and 30 minutes from Cape Town, I arrived in the beautiful and quiet town
of Langebaan.
On my arrival at the resort, I was welcomed by
Henco Lotz (Guest Services Duty Manager) who had arranged a personal tour of the entire
resort. After a very informative tour he handed me over to the friendly and
professional check-in staff at the reception and the check-in process
was quick, easy and efficient - a complete breeze. You also receive
an envelope printed with the resort map on the outside and when you open it,
you will find your apartment key cards, wrist band that gives you access to the
resort facilities and Wi-Fi login details.
There are golf karts to transport
guests around the resort so one was organised and I was on my way to my
apartment on the beach front - Not self-drive!
Their clean and clearly well-maintained Preferred four-star one-bedroom self-cateringapartments with breath-taking ocean views have fully-equipped open-plan kitchen, open-plan lounge
leading on to the balcony and a king-size bed, twin beds in
the bedroom and bathroom with shower.
There's another option to sleep at Athenian Cascades, Marina Village or The Terraces units. Each unit has its
own unique design elements with various sleeping capacities but all have
dramatic views over the resort be it the tranquil ocean views or the unique
pool and garden views.
Athenian Cascades - The more budget friendly 3-star self catering accommodation perfectly suited for larger groups that would like to be booked near to each other.
The Terraces - Compact 3-star self catering accommodation overlooking the breath-taking Marina.
Marina Village - Set right on the water in the picturesque marina of Club Mykonos, these new two and three bedroom luxury apartments will leave you speechless. You will have perfect views of the Atlantic ocean and yachts.
As you may have seen on my Instagram account, I love
taking pictures of beautiful and colourful buildings, Western Cape destinations
and tour activities, and sharing them on my Instagram account with the entire
world so you can imagine my excitement when I saw all those bright, colourful and
Greek-styled buildings.
I couldn’t stop smilling and imagining the types of
pictures I would be capturing and activities I would be enjoying and sharing on
my social media platforms. One has to visit this place to really understand
what I am talking about!
Enough about me - Let me explain what facilities and
activities you can enjoy at Club Mykonos resort!

Thali-Thali is a 1460 hectare Cape West Coast game and
fynbos reserve situated just of the R27 near Langebaan, less than one hour
drive from Cape Town, bordering the West Coast National Park. The Cape West
Coast is intoxicating, sure the wind heaves and thumps for much of the year,
but the Langebaan area with its beautiful lagoon has a charm that keeps people
coming back year after year.
WEST COAST FOSSIL PARK
See the fossils of bears, sabre-tooth cats, short-necked
giraffes and the many other exotic animals which inhabited the West Coast area
some 5 million years ago.
WEST COAST NATIONAL PARK
Thousands of seabirds roost on sheltered islands,
pristine golden beaches stretch endlessly into the early morning mist and
brooding salt marshes are home to vast concentrations of migrant waders from
the Northern Hemisphere.
I hope you
