Cape to Kalahari

Pristine ocean views over Camps Bay beach and Lion’s Head, beachside cuisine at a variety of our renowned restaurants, and a vast mountain range and National Park to explore – make The Marly a destination boutique hotel and spa for the modern-day traveller.

Combining luxury and playfulness with sophisticated design, five-star service, spa treatments, rooftop pool and bar with unrivalled vistas of the Twelve Apostles, and both ocean and mountain-facing rooms, there’s simply no reason to leave.

The Motse Safari Camp is situated in Tswalu, South Africa’s largest privately owned game reserve, on the southernmost edge of the Kalahari. Tswalu has an exceptionally low guest-to-space ratio, meaning guests will be among no more than 28 people with exclusive access to one of Southern Africa’s last great wildernesses. Privacy, exclusivity, and flexibility are central to the Tswalu guest experience, from dining and relaxation to the diverse safari activities. Guests can enjoy interpretative walks, horse riding, or spend time in the field with one of the research teams from the Dedeben Research Centre, part of the Tswalu Foundation. The Motse is a luxury camp with nine private guest legae (Tswana for ‘home’); three of these are specifically designed for families, featuring two bedrooms. The Motse is perfectly positioned to capture the wide, open spaces typical of the southern Kalahari’s dramatic beauty. By choosing to stay in one of these small, luxury camps, guests are contributing to the conservation of the southern Kalahari’s biodiversity.
