Recommended place to stay:
Cederberg, Western Cape, South Africa
Official star rating:
Stay the night in their ‘star bed’…
This spectacular nature reserve, three hours from Cape Town, is home to a unique spa resort and its ten unusual ‘cave suites’.
Although the facades are man-made, the suites are cleverly integrated into the surrounding rock topography to be almost indistinguishable. Cave-like interiors and uninterrupted landscape views reconnect you with your primitive self.
You can also opt for one of their two ‘open-air suites’, situated away from the main lodge for more privacy and utter tranquillity. Guests sleep out under a carpet of stars, and wake to sunrise and uninterrupted views of the bushveld.
Please note - we hope to one day have live prices for you, but for now, here are some useful links for you to compare prices...
