Words don't do justice to this place. It must be one of the most beautiful places on earth. It is ultra luxury from the moment you set foot on the reserve. The service is top notch, the views, accommodation and food spectacular and the spa treatments out of this world.

The stay at GrootBos was most definitely a high light of our travel to the Western Cape. Not only was the accommodation well appointed and extremely comfortable, the food was a memorable culinary experience. We found the staff to be extremely attentative and obliging making us feel really at home. The lodge is fortunately child friendly with our daughter appreciating... More

If you are a fynbos fanatic then this is for you. If you like peace and quiet this is terrific. If you are the go-go type then maybe not, as going around in a 4X4 to look at 760 species of plants may seem boring.
