Set in the exclusive enclave of St Francis Bay, the luxury getaway of choice for many of South Africa’s who’s who, as well as a favourite playground for sun and sea seeking holidaymakers. The Sands at St Francis is just minutes from the village’s centre, which makes it an ideal setting.
Waking to the sound of waves crashing on the beach below; enjoying the view of the surfers making the most of the waves while you sip on a steaming cup of freshly brewed coffee on your private deck; and then slipping into the adjacent rim flow pool for a refreshing pre-breakfast swim. This is the kind of idyllic beach life that awaits visitors to The Sands.

The Drostdy Hotel
In the heart of a town with a rich history and immense character, Drostdy Hotel, the finest Karoo gem, is found. Graaff Reinett was established in 1786 and has matured into a charming destination that is well-known for its blend of Cape Dutch, Victorian, and Karoo architecture. Uniquely, the town surrounded almost entirely by the Camdeboo National Park which boasts spectacular wildlife and natural scenery.
Just as pleasing to the eye, Drostdy Hotel was initially built in the early 1800s and has its own fascinating story, having been refined over the years into one of South Africa’s top 10 hotels. Although it bears modern touches and a contemporary atmosphere, it remains true to its roots with furnishings and antiques that point to the past.
Guests will find this understated grande dame a comfortable retreat in the expansive Great Karoo.

Mount Camdeboo Private Game Reserve rests at the foot of the Sneeuberg Mountain Range in South Africa’s dynamic Karoo region. This is a place of sweeping panoramas and undulating escarpments, extraordinary plant and animal diversity, and a deeply rooted cultural heritage – from its early Bushmen dwellers to its Dutch settlers. The reserve is home to white rhino, cape buffalo, cheetah, giraffe, mountain zebra, a host of antelope, and an abundance of birds.
If remote R&R is what you need, then the on-site spa and the constantly evolving menu of wholesome, locally inspired, refined cuisine, will do wonders for body and soul.
