Ecologically conscious five-star experience
Grootbos Private Nature Reserve is a jewel nestled in an old Milkwood forest surrounded by rolling hills and fynbos. It overlooks Walker Bay with views over the Atlantic ocean and Cape of Good Hope. Here the air is filled with the sweet, intoxicating smell of flowers and the sizzling sound of millions of insects and birds, under a sky that constantly changes color.
Each of the freestanding suites is stylishly decorated with luxurious four-poster beds, spacious bathrooms, a separate lounge with fireplace and its own wooden deck with spectacular panoramic views. From the warm and inviting Garden Lodge to the exclusive Villa, you are assured of ultimate comfort, luxury and style.
