Accommodation

,Clarendon Bantry Bay | Cape Town Perched majestically atop the sparkling waters of the Atlantic Ocean, the Clarendon Bantry Bay is a spectacular fusion of sophistication and boutique luxury. Décor in each of the rooms is a contemporary mix of classic design and local flavour. Flooded with light and blessed with ocean views at every turn, The Clarendon Bantry Bay promises an unforgettable stay.

A very special place in an unbelievable location close to shops, restaurants, beaches and the main attractions.   Singita Boulders Lodge | Sabi Sand Private Game Reserve Boulders Lodge is at the forefront of contemporary African style inspired by the geometry of the rough boulders amidst which it is built. Innovative design and natural hues accentuate a sense of space that flows in from surrounding vistas through floor to ceiling glass walls. Gloriously appointed in dappled shade on the banks of the Sand River. Open, organic fluidity in gentle, neutral and monochrome tones unites in and outdoors to create a comfortable Zen appeal. Rooms: Eight luxury air-conditioned suites consist of sumptuous bathrooms, indoor and outdoor showers, an expansive living area with double-sided fireplace, mini-bar and fridge, private wooden leisure decks with a private heated plunge pool. All the suites have direct dial telephones, and the library has two computers and direct internet links.   Singita Lebombo Lodge | Kruger National Park Lebombo Lodge is constructed almost entirely of wood and glass with light modernist interiors to create a sense of space and oneness with the African bush. It is bold, modern, Lebombo's chic, crisp design is offset by its spectacular, exposed location and open, lofty spaces. Rooms: All suites are en-suite with an inside and outside shower, bath, mini bar and fridge, room safe, air-conditioning, overhead fans, direct dial telephones and game viewing deck with a day bed. All the suites have direct dial telephones
