indigenous forests of the Garden Route, between Knysna and plettenberg Bay.
Eastern and European flavours blend with the cultures of Africa to reflect in the tastes,
rhythms and colours of the hand crafted fittings and superb cuisine.
Elevated wooden walkways meander though the trees to ten exclusive and very private suites,
all with plunge pools. The seductive structures rise to heights exceeding six metres, each one
a harmonious combination of craftsmanship of ancient times and indulgent luxury of modern
convenience. Discover the romance and magic of Coastal Africa. Member of Relais &
