It has a maritime flavour that extends to each room and suite, which has sea or mountain views and is a luxurious port of call.

Below the foyer to the south, is the grand lounge with its cathedral ceiling and twin fireplaces.

.

Your Itinerary

The exclusive 5 star Deluxe Collection Arabella Western Cape Hotel and Spa boasts a grand championship golf course and is situated on the Arabella Country Estate next to Southern Africa's largest and most beautiful natural lagoon.

image

<Day 7 ~ Pinnacle Point Golf Estate

Today play Pinnacle Point (tbc). Magnificently perched atop staggering cliffs, this windswept course three hours east of Cape Town and a half hour south of George marks a major addition to South Africa’s already world-class golf scene. Six of the holes play across deep chasms to greens that seem to float in the Indian Ocean. The yawning ravines and distant horizons can make 150-yard shots look like twice that length. On the par-four eighth, tee and green sit on opposing bluffs; big hitters can attempt an all-or-nothing carry with the hope of having an easy wedge in, or play it safe by bailing out left and facing a much longer approach. Throughout the layout, the architects wisely designed large, fairly flat greens that yield plenty of sensible pin placements and give golfers who have run a gauntlet just to get to the green a bit of a break. (cart fee included)
