From Cape to Kruger in South Africa

One of South Africa’s defining features is its patchwork of landscapes, and with properties in every facet, The Royal Portfolio’s collection delivers on ‘the spice of life’. The hero hotspots, however, have to be vibrant Cape Town and the wildlife-loaded national parks. In a prime position on the V&A Waterfront, The Silo Hotel’s statement windows look out onto sweeping views of the city. Below, there’s a contemporary art museum to explore, while tours of the Cape Peninsula showcase the best of further afield. 

Up near the Mozambique border, homely comforts have been brought to the savannah at Royal Malewane. The suites and villas are strewn across the wilderness near Kruger National Park, balancing untamed nature with eclectic décor synonymous with the brand and creature comforts like butler service and private infinity pools. The indulgence continues on safaris helmed by private guides and trackers, and spa treatments crafted from local ingredients.
