PURE HEAVEN - 7 STAR HOTEL and SPA
This Hotel and Spa is pure heaven. We are treated like Royalty. We have been coming back year after year because this Hotel and Spa are bliss. The staff all know us by name and are always smiling, always ready to assist and help us enjoy what is a 7 Star Hotel. Tiaan, the Operations Manager, ensures that everyone and everything goes like clockwork. He has a fantastic staff including the deputy manager, Nathan, the wonderful Gwen, in charge of housekeeping for whom nothing is too much trouble, and Mona, who has been at Lanzerac for many years and always greets us with such a lovely smile; the lovely waiters and waitresses, including the fabulous Bongi who always comes to our table and is so pleased to see us; the fabulous Lynette who remembers everything we like to eat and drink and is the sweetest, most charming and most efficient waitress; the lovely others including Henrico; Mihlali; Aaron; Elijah; Kuphela and Oli. We love our room, 202, with its private terrace which shares a private pool and loungers with just two other rooms. The Deli and tasting rooms are superb. The chefs need special praise. They will make anything we ask off the menu and everything they make is delicious and beautifully presented. The grounds are beautiful and beautifully maintained. This is why we return year after year. Thank you to Tiaan and his staff for making our holiday in February every year so enjoyable.

Perfect experience
If I could give this place 10 stars I would. This was our second time back at the Lanzarac and I hope to come back again. The grounds are stunning and the rooms are spacious and beautifully decorated with large bathrooms. The hotel is a short drive from lots of beautiful vineyards and about 25 minutes from Franschhoek and tends to be much better value than some of the estates there. The food is incredible and the service is outstanding. There are plenty of little touches like sparkling wine on arrival, free mini bar, complimentary shuttle and amazing breakfast included that make you feel spoiled. The gym is well equipped and the pool area lovely. Highly recommend!

Fabulous
We loved our stay . The hotel is stunning and the grounds are so beautiful . There is a great choice of places to eat although finding places felt a bit confusing . The Manor restaurant was fabulous and good value . We had a mid price room in the Manor itself which was outstanding and had its own enormous terrace and hot tub ( room 305) , we hadn’t expected that !

Classic luxury in the vineyards
Our honeymoon at Lanzerac Hotel & Spa was nothing short of magical. Sleeping on a working wine estate, surrounded by vineyards and mountains, felt like living inside a postcard — romantic, peaceful, and effortlessly luxurious. The spa and pool area were a true highlight. The pool has an incredible view over the vineyards, and everything about it feels designed for total relaxation: super comfortable pool beds, a great pool bar, and a calm atmosphere that makes you want to stay all day. The spa itself is spacious and never feels crowded, which we really appreciated. Between the jacuzzi, sauna, heated indoor pool, and the beautifully maintained facilities, it was the perfect place to unwind. A huge bonus was the spa bar offering healthy drinks and food — such a thoughtful touch — plus a very nice fitness area inside the spa as well. The restaurants on the estate were excellent throughout our stay. The Taphuis was our favorite (we went back more than once!), and we loved ending our evenings with a cocktail at the Craven Lounge after dinner — such a cozy, elegant setting. The service was consistently warm, friendly, and attentive, and the location is super convenient for exploring Stellenbosch and the surrounding wine region. Our room was spacious, beautifully finished, and full of classic French charm — old-school, timeless luxury in the best possible way. If you’re looking for a place that combines romance, relaxation, wine-country beauty, and classic five-star elegance, Lanzerac is absolutely perfect. Truly an unforgettable honeymoon destination — and we can’t wait to come back.
