Accommodation in any of the nine spectacular provinces in South Africa!
‘I believe that South Africa is the most beautiful place on earth. Admittedly, I am biased, but when you combine the natural beauty of South Africa with the friendliness and cultural diversity of our people, and the fact that the region is a haven for Africa’s most splendid wildlife, then I think even the most scrupulous critic would agree that we have been blessed with a truly wonderful land. ( Nelson Mandela – President of South Africa (1994-1999)
South Africa is the world’s 26-largest country by population, and 24th-largest by land area (including indigenous water).
