Our team recently had the pleasure of visiting Dorp Hotel, a charming property tucked away on the slopes of Cape Town.

The hotel offers authentic timeless, character-filled aesthetic while celebrating Cape Malay history and heritage. Guests can enjoy beautiful views of Cape Town and the surrounding mountains, while each room features unique vintage décor that adds to the property’s distinctive historical character.

Dorp Hotel is particularly well suited to upmarket travelers who appreciate heritage, history and characterful accommodation.

Thank you to the Dorp Hotel team for welcoming us! 💚

Our team recently had the opportunity to experience a Cape Malay cooking class at Faeeza’s Home Kitchen, where food, culture and tradition come together. 💛

We rolled and folded our own samoosas, made chilli bites, enjoyed koeksisters, and learned more about the flavours and traditions behind Cape Malay cooking. 👩‍🍳

Faeeza’s love for cooking is rooted in growing up in Bo-Kaap, surrounded by the Cape Malay dishes her mother prepared. Today, she shares that passion with visitors from around the world through her cooking experiences.

And after all the cooking? We had the pleasure of sitting down together and enjoying everything we had made. 😋

Thank you to Faeeza for welcoming us into her kitchen and sharing a taste of Bo-Kaap with us! 💛

Katja and Candice recently explored a wonderful selection of properties and experiences across the Drakensberg and KwaZulu-Natal, discovering the incredible variety the region has to offer, from spectacular mountain landscapes and welcoming stays to unforgettable safari encounters.

At Moorcroft Manor Boutique Country Hotel, the combination of excellent service, a fantastic dinner enjoyed in front of the fire, and a cosy atmosphere made for a particularly memorable stay.

Three Tree Hill impressed with its spectacular setting and thoughtful family-friendly touches, including kiddies’ goodies in the rooms. It is a property that certainly caters well to families looking for a comfortable stay in the Drakensberg.

At Antbear Lodge, the cave experience was a definite highlight, offering a unique and romantic setting with beautiful views. The journey also included a stay at The Cavern Resort Drakensberg along with visits to Granny Mouse, Sani Valley Lodge, Premier Resort Sani Pass, Spionkop Lodge, Spionkop Battlefield, Berghouse & Cottages, Montusi Mountain Lodge and Sungubala.

The wildlife encounters were equally memorable, from zebra sightings at Sani Valley Nature Lodges and cheetahs at Nambiti Hills Private Game Experience to an incredible safari at Babanango Game Reserve, where the team spotted lions with their cubs and rhinos.

These experiences showcase the diversity of the region, combining mountain landscapes, family-friendly stays, unique accommodation, warm hospitality, history and exceptional wildlife.
