One of the Garden Route's most celebrated and best-loved hideaways, Birkenhead House is as dramatic as it is cozy and private. The white-pillared hotel is set atop a craggy cliff; between July and December, you might glimpse a passing whale (for an even closer view, take the tour departing from Kleinbaai Harbour). From here, it's easy to visit the Hemel-en-Aarde Valley, known for its amazing vineyards and jaw-dropping scenery. The area is home to some of South Africa's finest examples of pinot noir and chardonnay. Rooms are as decadent as they come; ask for the one with a romantic clawfoot tub set in the middle of the bathroom.

No Content .We care - and we know you do, too
We’re committed to running every property in The Royal Portfolio in the most sustainable way possible, in partnership with our team members, suppliers and communities.
We believe that it’s possible to give you the perfect stay, but with a light footprint. We want future generations to experience the same privileges we enjoy today: being able to spend time exploring Africa’s unspoiled wild places and discovering the continent’s rich cultural heritage.
Planet before profit
In every decision we make, we consider the potential impact on people, wildlife and the environment. We focus on issues where we believe we can make a difference: energy and climate change, water usage, packaging and waste, ethical sourcing, community upliftment, and health and wellness and poaching deterrence.
Working with local communities, we’re looking for innovative solutions to reduce, reuse, recycle and rethink our relationship with the world’s limited resources. The hydronic heating and cooling system at Waterside at Royal Malewane is a great example of this philosophy in action, by using circulating water for heating and cooling.
