Delaire Graff Lodges & Spa
Cape Winelands · 9.6/10 Exceptional · guest rating
Discreet lodges set within the Delaire Graff wine estate above Stellenbosch, with vineyard views, an art gallery, a spa and other wineries a short walk away.
Delaire Graff Lodges & Spa sits high on Helshoogte Pass, looking over manicured gardens, vineyards and the Simonsberg mountains. The lodges are placed discreetly for privacy, with Cape Dutch-inspired rooflines and interiors by David Collins Studio. Arrival feels almost like entering a museum, as landmark artworks are displayed throughout and the atmosphere is hushed and gallery-like. Guests often highlight the views and the quiet, secluded character of the stay.
The estate offers a spa, a pool, a hot tub, a gym, a restaurant and a bar, and breakfast is included. Room service, laundry and babysitting are listed, along with free parking and WiFi. The art gallery is part of the experience, and the wine setting is real: the lodges are inside a working wine estate, with several other producers within walking distance. Please confirm tasting and restaurant arrangements directly with the hotel before you arrive.
