A spectacular artistic villa nestled amongst South African vineyards and mountains has been recently crowned the superior suite globally
The Delaire Graff Estate in Stellenbosch Valley, South Africa, is a shining beacon of luxury and refinement, offering an unparalleled experience for its guests. Completed in 2019 after four years of meticulous work, the estate has since become one of South Africa's premier wine tourism destinations, winning numerous accolades.
Located on Helshoogte Pass, Stellenbosch, the estate boasts a villa that serves as a living gallery for Laurence Graff's collection of contemporary African art. Works by artists such as Yves Dana, Jabu Nala, and Cyrus Kabiru are displayed throughout the villa, which spans 660 square meters.
The villa's design engages in a permanent dialogue with the landscape, embracing its natural curves. Smoked oak floors traverse all spaces, including the entrance hall, gym, dining room, kitchen, and family living room. A bronze fireplace separates the reception area from the dining room, and two white plaster chandeliers commissioned from Alexandre Logé hang from 200-year-old French oak beams.
The living room, with a double height of 6.6 meters, offers a spacious and elegant setting. The dining room features a Christian Liaigre table, green leather chairs, and a Jean-Michel Frank console. The terrace, overlooking the Stellenbosch Valley, is a highlight, featuring a 14m pool suspended above the valley, clad in nacre glass mosaic. It also includes a 19 sqm jacuzzi, teak sun loungers, and tables carved from local travertine.
The villa offers a personal majordomo, governess, and private chef to ensure a seamless and luxurious stay. Each of the four main suites has a private terrace dominating the valley, and the bathrooms are adorned with Crema Marfil marble, which dialogues with Imperial Marron in a sophisticated play of reflections.
The estate's spa includes four ivory-toned treatment suites, an infinity pool facing Table Mountain, sauna, hammam, and an ultramodern gym. The Delaire Graff Estate's wellness approach surpasses traditional luxury standards with holistic rituals and Augustinus Bader products.
The Delaire Graff Estate's service matches that of the finest hotels, blending South African hospitality with international refinement. The estate's proximity to Jan Marais Nature Reserve, Stellenbosch University, and Jonkershoek Nature Reserve makes it an ideal location for exploring the beauty of the region.
