Offering an outdoor pool, spa and on-site restaurant, Drostdy Hotel is located in the beautiful town of Graaff-Reinet, which features over 220 heritage sites.

Each room here will provide you with a flat-screen satellite TV, free WiFi and air conditioning. Guests will also benefit from a Nespresso coffee maker, 24-hour room service and a writing desk. An absolute treat. One of the most wonderful hotels we’ve ever stayed in offering the best of South Africa. Just pure class. The rooms, the staff, the spa, the food. 5 star all the way. We’ve spent a lot of time in SA yet we were all absolutely wowed by this place. Didn’t want to leave. Also worth mentioning that this place doubles up as a high end hospitality training school giving opportunities to the local community and training them up to work in tourism.

ABOUT DIO DELL AMORE

Dio Dell'Amore Guest House is situated right on the shores of the Kabeljauws Mouth. In a relaxed atmosphere with optimum convenience and comfort you can enjoy beautiful breaker views, ocean scenery and the lagoon with water sport! Firstly, the location is neighbouring horse stables where one can book rides on the beach. The house has the feel of a Tuscan villa in Italy, and makes one immediately feel like you are far away. The garden is truly magical and lastly the staff is amazing and extremely flexible, for e.g. breakfast times etc. The breakfast was also wholesome and amazing.

Woodall Country House & Spa is a 5-star property offering luxury accommodation and gourmet cuisine in a peaceful location. The guesthouse is close to Addo Elephant Park and Shamwari Game Reserve.

This boutique hotel has just 11 guest rooms, all of which have a private veranda overlooking the pretty gardens. All of the rooms also boast a private outdoor shower. Amazing place, in the heart of the nature so that you feel like in a new dimension. The staff is extremely kind (especially Frederic, that cheered our dinner playing the piano!), and the room really big and cleaned. I had one of my best breakfast in my South Africa trip! Even the safaris were perfect. Thank you!
