An Iconic Retreat in the Heart of Stellenbosch
Tucked within a 162-hectare working wine estate, Lanzerac Hotel & Spa stands as a beacon of refinement in the Jonkershoek Valley. With its grandeur dating back to 1692, this Stellenbosch landmark seamlessly blends historic Cape Dutch architecture, world-class winemaking, and sophisticated hospitality. Rolling vineyards and majestic mountain backdrops set the stage for a retreat steeped in tradition and indulgence.

The estate offers 53 elegantly appointed rooms and suites, each exuding timeless charm with hand-selected furnishings, plush fabrics, and private patios overlooking manicured gardens or vine-clad landscapes. The Presidential Suite offers unparalleled grandeur, with a spacious lounge, private dining area, and exclusive butler service, ensuring an experience of uncompromising refinement.

Dining at Lanzerac is a celebration of culinary artistry, with venues catering to every mood. The Manor Kitchen presents contemporary South African cuisine, crafted from the freshest seasonal ingredients. Taphuis, a historic tavern, offers gourmet pub fare and fine wines, while the Lanzerac Deli provides a casual yet sophisticated setting for artisanal produce, light meals, and freshly baked goods. Each dining experience is enhanced by the estate’s renowned wine collection, including the world’s first bottled Pinotage.

A sanctuary of wellness, the Lanzerac Spa features eight private treatment rooms, an indoor heated pool, sauna, steam room, and a state-of-the-art fitness center. Guests can surrender to bespoke therapies, hydrotherapy rituals, and signature massages, all designed to restore harmony and rejuvenation.

Beyond the estate, a curated selection of activities awaits. Exclusive wine tastings and cellar tours unveil the estate’s storied winemaking heritage, while cycling trails, vineyard picnics, and guided nature walks offer immersive outdoor experiences.
