This is it! Fabulous King lodge (step out to infinity pool) with big separate living room, kitchenette (you won't need it) and large bath - all amenities overlooking a gorgeous, picture perfect landscape. Chocolates, fruit, wines and exceptional service were the icing on the cake for this grand highlight of our S. Africa trip room-wise. The food was lovely at... More

This review is for the spa only - probably hands down the best spa I've ever visited! First of all, the estate is stunning! Every detail is exquisite. It felt so trendy but not pretentious at all! It gives off a very contemporary/zen feeling but not cold at all. I LOVED the ambiance! Second, the service is impeccable! I mean,... More

Just returned from a two night stay at Delaire, that we just did not want to end. From the moment you arrive and turn into the estate, you know you are somewhere special. The property is perfectly maintained inside and out – landscaping, artwork, décor, vineyards, tastings and views were all extraordinary. Truly authentic, warm and comfortable service by staff...

My friends, husband and I were greeted by a charming woman at the hotel who took us on a tour of the property. She knew we had no reservations, but made us feel as though we were cherished guests. We had little time for the restaurant or wine tasting, but wanted to see what all the hub-bub was about. Delaire... More

I'm an unashamed Amanjunkie and the Delaire Graff Estate is my favorite resort property on the African continent (ahead of Amanjena) if we exclude Singita safari experiences. Location: overlooking a valley of vineyards and olive groves, with majestic mountains in the background. It's tucked away from the touristy/busy part of Stellenbosch. Design: contemporary without being pretentious, and a living proof... More

I only visited the Day Spa but I wish I had stayed for the week! Extraordinary experience all round. We had a 90 minute massage then used the pool and facilities and that was enough to be blown away. From the second you enter the lobby you know it is going to be a 5 star experience. The room are... More

This estate is really the top destination in Stellenbosch. Small, only 10 lodges, but so they can offer superb service. In the estate you'll find beautiful South African art which fits in perfectly. I don't have any words left over to say than : absolutely perfect in all aspects !!!!

Delaire is a little gem about an hour from Cape Town. The hotel and spa are beautifully done, but expensive but the restaurants are exceptional. Definitely worth a day trip if you're staying in Cape Town.
