Leeu Estates
Encompassing an exclusive 5 star, boutique hotel, wellness spa and winery set in its own vineyard, Leeu Estates is set in the scenic Franschhoek valley. This elegant and private hideaway, surrounded by landscaped gardens, offers 2 swimming pools, 2 fine dining restaurants, and a wine tasting studio to showcase the estate's vintages.
Leeu Estates have beautifully refurbished a 19th century Cape Dutch manor which houses 23 luxuriously appointed rooms and suites, taking central position on 108 hectares of vineyards, landscaped gardens and fynbos in the Franschhoek valley. Contemporary yet classic, each room is individually styled and filled with customized architectural detailing. Many have their own terraces and fireplaces. Guests can enjoy their meals in either of the two restaurants, Le chêne or La Petite Colombe. For the art enthusiasts, the Everard Read Art Gallery is also located at this property.

vacation to Tanzania
We absolutely loved this trip. The lodges were all fantastic and well located and our guide with Predators Safari Club always made us feel safe, cared-for and welcome. The experience of being on safari with so few other travelers was a once in a lifetime experience.
