An excellent but exclusive hideaway.

This is a very special place tucked away in the foothills of the Cape Fold Mountains near Gansbaai. A truly unique experience, and everything one would expect from a five star resort - plenty of highly attentive, well trained staff, wonderful facilities and accommodation, immersed in beautiful natural surroundings, and, most importantly, a property that is being run, maintained and improved in a sustainable and environmentally friendly manner, with a strong ethos of giving back to the community in which it exists. For a purely hedonistic experience, this is perfect, but there is a greater mission here. Unfortunately only for the well-heeled, nevertheless I can not recommend the Grootbos experience enough for those who seek an exclusive and exemplary experience. The Florilegium is without compare in this country.
