Stay

The accommodation establishments you will find in this section have been personally visited and chosen for their exquisite character and friendliness. The hotels, guesthouses and B&B’s in South Africa are of an exceptional high standard and Platinum Golf only uses those establishments that have been graded by the Tourism Grading Council (TGCSA).

The differences between hotels and a guesthouse or B&B are not always well defined, but in general it is fair to state that:

Hotel

In general 15+ rooms with more facilities on-site;

Villa / appartment

Fully equipped and usually very well appointed (privately owned) appartments or homes in superb locations. Usually rented out for longer periods (say a week), mostly either in the bigger tourist areas (think Cape Town, Knysna, around Durban) or on golf estates. Ideal for families or bigger parties travelling together, and not wanting to move every other night.
