Hotels in South Africa

Great nature, great food and above all great people

Me and my wife had an amazing stay here. We were impressed by the beautiful surroundings and the peaceful atmosphere. The villa itself is really spacious, beautiful stylish, and impeccably clean, offering everything needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. The views were absolutely breathtaking, overlooking mountains—perfect for enjoying a morning coffee, breakfast or a glass of wine in the evening. The location is great, providing escape while still being close to the heart of Franschhoek. The staff is warm, attentive, and always ready to assist with any request, making sure everything was perfect. Special thanks to Esme! Overall, I highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a luxurious, tranquil, and memorable getaway in Franschhoek. We loved it so much that we decided to go back to it for our last night in South Africa!

everything about this property is magical. From the moment you arrive until you leave is an unforgettable experience

It is not hyperbole to say that Akademie Street Boutique Hotel is the best small hotel that we have stayed at anywhere. The hospitality and quality of the room were special. The property is just cool. And the breakfast is superb. Special smoothie were a particular treat. Loved the daily sundowner and nightcap. Just felt at home.

Exceptional Safari Experience – Beyond Expectations! Driving all the way from Skukuza through Kruger into the heart of Timbavati, Motswari exceeded every expectation. The lodge is stunning and set in a truly breathtaking location, but what really makes this place special is the staff. Rudolf and his team went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. Their warmth, knowledge, and hospitality made us feel completely at home. We couldn’t have enjoyed it more – an absolutely unforgettable experience!

Our stay at Ivory Wilderness River Rock Lodge was the highlight of the holiday. Danell and Wienand were wonderful guides and hosts and made us feel very welcome at this beautiful Lodge. Andrew and Siphiwe looked after us at the Lodge and we enjoyed every meal. The team at Ivory Wilderness work well together and make sure that you are well looked after.

This place is amazing, location, views and unreal rooms. From check-in to check out everything was exceptional a warm welcome. Staff made our celebration simply unforgettable. The boutique hotel is a real treat, extremely manicured, professional and clean. A wonderful service experience.

Fantastic stay. Truely great staff, food, venue and staff. Really comfortable and beautiful.

A Truly Exceptional Stay – Highly Recommended! We had a fantastic stay at Derwent House Boutique Hotel! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the warm and personal service provided by the entire team, led by the wonderful Luca. Everyone made us feel right at home. A special thank you to Anahid, who gave us excellent recommendations for local places to visit and dine – every suggestion was spot on and added so much to our experience. One of the highlights of our trip was a tour with Trish, an amazing guide arranged through the hotel. Her knowledge and enthusiasm made it a truly memorable outing. Our room was beautifully decorated and had a stunning view of Table Mountain – waking up to that every morning was a dream. Breakfasts were delicious and plentiful, with a great variety each day. We also loved the thoughtful touches like the complimentary soup and cakes served at night, and the attentive day and night turndown service. Derwent House went above and beyond in every way. It’s rare to find such genuine hospitality. We would return in a heartbeat!
