The Delaire Graff Estate will make the eyes of any wine connoisseur light up. Owned by Laurence Graff of Graff Diamonds, no expense has been spared in making this 100-hectare South African estate an absolute jewel of the Cape Winelands. You can expect a range of luxurious private lodges, some with infinity pools, a wine lounge overlooking the Stellenbosch Valley, and a famous art collection that includes one of the most famous paintings in the world: "Chinese Girl" by Vladimir Tretchikoff. Two exquisite restaurants and a tranquil spa will make your dream vacation perfect.
You'll be spoiled for choice on the vineyard's vast grounds: explore the botanical gardens of renowned horticulturist Keith Kirsten, settle in with complimentary popcorn in the movie theater, take the complimentary shuttle to Stellenbosch, stroll through the vegetable gardens, olive groves, and vineyards, or simply indulge in a bottle of exquisite wine on your terrace. The tranquil spa offers an extensive range of massages and scrubs using premium products, a steam room, a Swedish sauna, and various manicure and pedicure options.
Enjoy the utmost comfort and luxury in one of 17 private luxury lodges with personal butler service, who will be happy to cater to your every need. Ultimate privacy is the order of the day at Delaire Graff Estate, whether you choose to enjoy the view of the impressive botanical gardens or the beautifully landscaped vineyards. The Luxury Vineyard Lodges in particular are real eye-catchers and delight with their spacious terraces and heated plunge pools overlooking the Stellenbosch Valley – especially beautiful at sunset with a glass of wine in hand.
The concept of "green gastronomy" characterizes the two restaurants at Delaire Graff Estate. Fruit, vegetables, and herbs are grown organically on site, and the free-range livestock comes from sustainable farmers in South Africa. In the main restaurant, Delaire Graff, chef Kevin Grobler conjures up unforgettable lunch, dinner, and nine-course tasting menus with paired wines, while the sister restaurant, Indochine, focuses on Asian-inspired cuisine. Thai curry and Malaysian beef have never tasted so good! Last but not least, the in-house wine lounge is a must-visit, offering fantastic views of the vineyards and the finest wine tastings.
Do you love watching the sunset with a glass of fine wine, reflecting on life and enjoying complete peace and privacy? On the dinner terrace of the Delaire Graff Estate, you can experience exactly that – and much more. It's no surprise that this resort is one of South Africa's leading luxury resorts. Even the most discerning guests will be satisfied here, as you'll want for nothing in your magnificent private lodge. With up to 250 square meters of living space, your own pool, and a private butler, this is the stuff that dream vacations are made of. On your walks, explore the extensive grounds of the Delaire Wine Estate, one of the country's leading wineries.
