Pezula Resort HotelPEZULA RESORT HOTEL GARDEN ROUTE ACCOMMODATION / HOTELS WESTERN CAPE, SOUTH AFRICA The five star Pezula Resort Hotel & Golf Estate is set in an extraordinary part of the southern coast of Africa, in an area aptly called The Garden Route which is located in the Western Cape Province in South Africa a mere 4-5 hours drive away from Cape Town. On one side of the magnificent Pezula Resort Hotel, the Indian Ocean thunders into the exquisitely beautiful rocky coast. On the other side of this luxurious estate, Knysna's breathtaking lagoon and the Outeniqua Mountains fill a calmer view. Here guests will find South Africa's true luxury resort hotel, The Pezula Resort Hotel and Spa.
Each of the suites featured at the Pezula Reort & Spa including the presidential suites, have been designed to be utterly indulgent and completely private - all with a contemporary African style. The interiors exude warmth, with stone and wooded textures, while welcoming earth tones create an unexpected contrast to the colours of the surrounding landscape. In all suites, sandstone forms a backdrop to the real log fireplaces, while marble is prevalent on many floors, patios and balconies. The suites have individual climate control, satellite television, DVD player, electronic safe, direct telephone, computer and internet access, each has a pantry kitchen with deli snacks and a well stocked drinks cabinet. Each has suite also has spectacular views across the Golf Course, the Indian Ocean or the beautiful Knysna Lagoon.
The Pezula Resort Hotel in Knysna at the Garden Route is a celebration of African elements with hints of Bali, in overhanging roofs and sliding shutters. The Pezula Spa and Golf Resort could be perfectly described as upmarket, distinctive, exceptional, luxurious and singular.
The games room at the Pezula Hotel is a comfortable haven for the chess master or the beginner. The library provides a quiet space for literary contemplation and exploration. The wine cellar is stocked with the finest selections from South Africa and afar. The Champagne Bar, Cigar Lounge and Whiskey Bar are all a connoisseurs pleasure with world-class brands to suite all palates.
