Hidden Gems Along Roads Less Travelled

The Last Word is a new brand in hospitality. Inspired by a family's dream to find and share Africa's oases of sanctuary and sanity, four stunning yet distinctive locations have been intuitively hand picked to provide savvy travellers with a unique adventure.

They are some of the safest places to stay in Africa.

The Last Word boutique hotels are located in and around Cape Town, each with its own soul, pleasingly different in style, views and activities, yet linked by the same distinctly superior hospitality standards. The secret is simply a combination of luxurious homely comforts, irresistibly charming care and stunning views away from the crowds.

Carefully chosen for their secluded locations and breathtaking views of mountain or sea, each boutique hotel inspires the fascination and excitement of an oasis, a sanctuary offering unparalleled African peace, privacy and comfort. Tranquil gardens surround large en-suite rooms, private patios, sparkling pools and the last word in luxury.

Perhaps the most compelling feature is the warm, genial hospitality.

The Last Word is not an experience limited to your own imagination. It guides and encourages new discoveries and awakens your senses to a very different way to travel.


More Time, More Space

There is no greater luxury in life than time. The most exclusive thing in the world is space. At The Last Word, you will find both.

Our personalised care and attention and the fact that we look after only a handful of guests each day means that your stay with us is enriched by your own ability to do the things you want to in your own time. We set a leisurely, slowed down pace, unpackaged you might say and your ability to follow will be driven by your new found feeling of rejuvenation and relaxation.

The sheer size of our luxurious rooms provide an immediate sense of space. The average private area per room is surprisingly generous, with large bathrooms and private patios. Serene gardens and expansive views further exemplify the openness and the privacy and security will confirm the complete sense of personal space you've always wanted.
