SOUTH AFRICAN LUXURY REACHES A NEW HIGH
11-15-2007
SOUTH AFRICA (10/07) – Two world-class destinations, Camp Jabulani, the ultra-deluxe lodge near Kruger National Park, and the elegant Steenberg Hotel, near Cape Town, are offering the six-night ultimate vacation package, which is offered year ‘round. For the price of *$9,413 for two persons sharing, or *$7,920 per person, single, guests will experience extraordinary sights, exquisite coddling, adventure, gourmet dining, wine tasting and much more at two of South Africa’s most desirable destinations.
The journey begins at Camp Jabulani, where guests enjoy three nights accommodation in a luxury suite, all meals and selected local beverages, a welcome cocktail on arrival, elephant back safaris, game drives, guided bush walks, a visit to the Hoedspruit Endangered Species Center (HESC), and a hard-cover book on the Elephants of Camp Jabulani.
At the Steenberg Hotel, guests are treated to three nights accommodation in a new Heritage Suite, a welcome cocktail on arrival, butler service, laundry service, complimentary transfers within a five km radius of the hotel and daily shuttle to the Victoria & Alfred Waterfront in Cape Town, wine tasting, WIFI and internet access, and a book on Heritage in the Cape.
With its stylish furnishings and motif, Camp Jabulani’s open-plan design is a marriage of African textures and understated elegance. Each of the six sumptuous suites has a private deck, plunge pool, fireplace, well-stocked private bar, air-conditioning and a generous size bath, as well as its own personal butler to attend to every need or desire. During their stay guests will experience Camp Jabulani’s renowned elephant-back safari. There’s no better way to get up close and personal with other members of the animal kingdom than on an elephant’s back, sitting behind a trainer in a comfortable saddle while the gentle beasts quietly negotiate narrow paths in single file. They will also have an opportunity to view “The Big Five” on a morning or evening open safari vehicle game drive, to participate in bush walks, bird watching, or to visit the world-famous Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre, while sybarites might prefer to indulge in a magical spa experience in the African bush.
Situated on the Cape’s oldest farm, just a twenty-minute drive from the heart of Cape Town, the Steenberg nestles in the Constantia Valley against the slopes of the Steenberg Mountains with sweeping views over False Bay. Its buildings, dating to 1682, were lovingly restored and have been declared a National Monument. Blending period antiques with sophisticated technology, each of the three new Heritage Suites offers butler service, in-room complimentary refreshment bar, complimentary laundry service, complimentary WIFI and internet service, and an audio entertainment system. In addition, there are working fireplaces, big thirsty bathrobes, Egyptian cotton sheets, flat screen TVs, i-pod stations, original art works, and bathrooms with walk in shower and large separate tub, and mini TV. The estate also boasts a state of the art award-winning winery, Catharina’s, rated one of South Africa’s top restaurants where award-winning chef, Garth Almazan dazzles visitors with his culinary skills, and a championship 18-hole golf course surrounding the hotel. In the hotel’s spacious spa, guests can indulge in a variety of treatments, including the latest vinotherapy therapies made from local grapes.
