Located on the Eastern Head of Knysna on the exquisite Garden Route coast, just a 40-minute flight from Cape Town, Pezula Resort Hotel & Spa is surrounded by rugged cliffs, ancient forests and sheltered beaches. With sweeping views of Pezula Championship Golf Course, the Indian Ocean and the Knysna Lagoon, it is a haven of privacy and luxury.
Seventy-eight stylish suites, including two presidential suites, are housed in detached villas and deliver a whole new world of luxury in an elegant African style. Each has its own patio or balcony, individual climate control, satellite television, a DVD player, electronic safe, direct telephone, Wifi connectivity and walk-in wardrobe. A pantry kitchen with delicious deli snacks prepared by the hotel restaurant, a well stocked drinks cabinet and real log fireplaces add unparalleled luxury to the accommodation.
Bathrooms are huge with oval-shaped calabash baths and wet rooms big enough for two. Beds are beautifully dressed with Egyptian cotton linen and guests are supplied with luxurious toweling gowns and slippers.
The main building houses a sumptuous cigar lounge, champagne and whisky bar, library, wine cellar and gourmet restaurant, Zachary’s. Executive chef Geoffrey Murray delights in serving up the freshest local ingredients in his inimitable style. His menu offers a variety of ‘modern ethnic’ dishes inspired by his worldwide experiences which include owning his own restaurants in New York and Miami and his role as executive chef at the exclusive Seychelles resort, North Island.
Situated on the lower level of the hotel, Pezula Spa is a calm sanctuary that reflects the soul of Africa and provides world-class professionalism in the delivery of a superior health and wellness experience. Twice named Best Spa in South Africa, it includes a 12m heated indoor pool, state-of-the-art gymnasium, outdoor Jacuzzi, sauna and steam room, rainforest shower, nail bar, hair salon and nine therapy rooms, as well as a post-treatment room with heated water beds. It offers a comprehensive range of treatments which combine natural therapies with the most technologically advanced equipment available.
Guests have access to secluded Noetzie Beach and River and activities including horse riding, canoeing and hiking. The estate’s Field of Dreams sporting complex offers four world-class tennis courts, a multi-purpose sports oval and golf practice range.
The Boma is the ideal venue for a meal with an authentic African feel. A rustic thatched structure houses a bar and log fireplace where guests can dine protected from the elements.
Montrose Castle on the Beach offers hotel guests a stunning beach venue on one of the most unspoilt and secluded beaches on the Garden Route coast. Here hotel guests can enjoy a delicious picnic prepared by Zachary’s restaurant while they soak up the sun.
Pezula’s newest ultra-luxury accommodation offering is the Private Castle on Noetzie Beach, which provides guests with every conceivable luxury including a butler and chef. The Main Castle houses three sumptuous suites and two sitting rooms while the Honeymoon Castle is a self-contained two-storey apartment.
