Arabella Western Cape Hotel
Kleinmond, Garden Route
- Five-star luxury in a spectacular resort close to Hermanus
- Excellent restaurants, bars and facilities
- Championship golf course and destination spa
A sprawling estate to match the best of Florida’s hotel-spa-golf combos, the Western Cape Hotel & Spa on the Arabella Country Estate offers five-star luxury, modern décor and facilities, and a wide choice of invigorating, relaxing or downright decadent activities.
Everything is grand at this resort. Cascading down the hill and overlooking the enormous lagoon – the largest in the country - and championship golf course – one of the country’s best - the hotel gazes out towards the hazy blue mountains in the distance.
The rooms – 145 in all – are large, comfortable and appointed with every modern convenience including entertainment centres, internet access and balconies and terraces overlooking the lagoon, golf course or mountains.
Première Restaurant is a fine dining option and voted one of the top restaurants in the country and the Jumani is a more relaxed affair with an open-plan kitchen and a buffet option. Drinking is encouraged with a choice of three venues – poolside, in the lagoon-facing lounge, or the leather-bound cigar bar.
The luxurious spa is a wonder of the modern world. You can float in a heated saline pool Turkish style - optional nudity - while listening to dolphin sounds piped underwater or try the Rassoul Chamber or the sensation shower or the winter plunge or… a lot of fun to be had.
