THE Living Journey Collection, a portfolio of eight boutique hotels in the Western Cape, has launched unique offers to local and international visitors to experience the region this spring.
Valid until 15 December 2026, the Spring-into-Summer offers pair each hotel with inspirational experiences, from guided sea-kayak tours in Hermanus to a bespoke perfumery experience in Franschhoek.
If a vibrant multi-cultural city break is what you’re seeking, then the collection’s two urban sanctuary hotels, Zest Boutique Hotel and The Tree House Boutique Hotel, both in trendy Green Point, are the answer. For these two hotels, the Spring-into-Summer offer includes an option to choose between a premium two-day City Sightseeing Red Bus ticket, giving you a great way to explore the city and the Peninsula; or a day pass to the Two Oceans Aquarium at the V&A Waterfront.
In Franschhoek, stay at Chapter House Boutique Hotel or Plumwood Boutique Hotel where your Spring-into-Summer offer includes a visit to Kumanov Perfumery. Here, you’ll be introduced to the art of perfumery before creating your own signature fragrance to take home.
In Stellenbosch, stay at the romantic River Manor Boutique Hotel or the stylish hideaway of Majeka House Boutique Hotel and visit the world-renowned Dylan Lewis Sculpture Garden, combining art, landscape and the great outdoors.
In Robertson, make the Victorian-styled Robertson Small Boutique Hotel your address and choose between a personally guided experience through the remarkable cactus and succulent collection at Sheilam Cactus and Succulent Garden, or discover more of the valley with an olive and lavender experience at Owl’s Rest Olive & Lavender Farm.
In Hermanus, book at One Marine Drive Boutique Hotel overlooking Walker Bay and opt for an invigorating guided sea kayaking or select the Bouchard Finlayson Vineyards’ Legacy Tasting Experience at its tasting room in the village.
