Our recent stay at Babylonstoren was an incredible experience that exceeded all our expectations. Nestled in the heart of the Cape Winelands, this exquisite farm offers the perfect blend of luxury, nature, and gastronomy. Here are some highlights from our memorable visit: Outstanding Accommodation The accommodations at Babylonstoren are truly remarkable. We stayed in one of the beautifully designed farm cottages, which offered a perfect mix of rustic charm and modern luxury. The rooms were spacious, impeccably clean, and equipped with all the amenities one could need. Waking up to the serene views of the gardens and vineyards was a delight. Exceptional Food and Wine Babylonstoren is a paradise for food and wine enthusiasts. The food was simply outstanding, with every meal showcasing fresh, locally sourced ingredients, many of which are grown right on the farm. The breakfast spread was extensive and delicious, and the dinners at the farm's restaurant, Babel, were a culinary highlight. Each dish was beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The wine was equally impressive, with a fantastic selection of Babylonstoren's own wines to enjoy. Wine Tasting Experience The wine tasting at Babylonstoren was one of the best we’ve ever experienced. The knowledgeable staff guided us through a selection of their finest wines, providing insights into the winemaking process and the unique characteristics of each wine. The tasting room itself is gorgeous, with stunning views of the vineyards, making the experience even more enjoyable. It's also a great place to purchase some excellent wines to take home. Water Buffalo Tour One of the unique highlights of our stay was the water buffalo tour. This fascinating tour allowed us to learn about the farm's water buffalo herd and the process of making buffalo mozzarella. The tour was informative and fun, and we even got to sample some delicious mozzarella at the end. We highly recommend trying a "buffalocino" – a cappuccino made with buffalo milk – it’s a delightful twist on a classic drink! So Much to Do There is no shortage of activities at Babylonstoren. From exploring the extensive gardens and orchards to hiking in the surrounding mountains, there’s something for everyone. We also enjoyed relaxing at the farm’s spa and walking around. The farm shop is a great place to buy unique gifts, fresh produce, and, of course, excellent wine. Conclusion Our stay at Babylonstoren was a perfect blend of relaxation, luxury, and adventure. The exceptional accommodation, fantastic food and wine, unique activities, and beautiful surroundings made it an unforgettable experience. Whether you’re a food and wine lover, nature enthusiast, or simply looking for a luxurious escape, Babylonstoren has something special to offer. Thank you, Babylonstoren, for an amazing stay!

A beautiful and luxurious hotel...the perfect spot after safari. The staff was incredibly warm and helpful and the food at Proud Mary was delicious. The breakfast was amazing. And there's shopping nearby if you need to grab a few more souvenirs. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

This hotel was in a pretty busy location and it was a bit loud when we arrived. Overall it worked out well for a quick one night stay. It was clean and comfortable and the breakfast was great!

Great location, peaceful and serene. We loved being on the Zambezi River.

I could go on and on and on about this Lodge. It may be my favorite place that I have every stayed. It will forever be near and dear to my heart and I would love to go back.

Lovely hotel. Friendly and helpful staff, great food, spacious comfortable rooms and beds, nice location!

This was our favorite experience during our stay in Victoria Falls. We had a beautiful sunset and the crocodiles, hippos and birds were amazing to see. The drinks and snacks were delicious too. We ended up having a private Riverside Dinner and show. So much fun!

The tents, bedding and bathroom exceeded our expectations. Everything was so comfortable and spacious. Even though there was no running water the staff made sure to help you feel like all your needs were met. It was incredible to be so close to the water hole and see the steady stream of animals come by. The elephant families were plentiful and entertaining. Very exciting to be immersed in nature like this.

The 9 mile walk from camp to camp was one of our favorite days. Taking a long break for lunch, naps, reading and wildlife viewing in the middle of the day in "Paradise" was awesome.

I don't know how the Chef prepared such incredible meals over fires! Amazing!

The staff and owner were so nice and seems like they are doing such important work in their community. It was fun to try local food and drinks. Great atmosphere!

This was fun but I actually loved the views from Victoria Falls National Park even better than those from the helicopter.

We didn't fully understand the true adventure we signed up for but it was awesome! The wildlife viewing was astounding. The water hole was fascinating. We loved the nine mile walk from camp to camp. The food was delish and everyone worked so hard behind the scenes to make this experience spectacular and one of a kind from start to finish. It was wonderful to be completely disconnected in such a remote and special environment. Even though we were in tents, the bedding and comfort was incredible and I loved the hot shower (made with water heated over a fire) at the end of each day.

There are not enough enthusiastic words or phrases to describe every game drive at Monwana! As my sons put it, we "completely vibed" with Colin our guide and Bennie, our tracker. We loved everyone on the staff led by Robbie. The accomodations were simply stunning and the food was superb! It is worth the long flight to travel back to this lodge, truly one of my top life's experiences!

Every single ride with Bennie and Colin was beyond belief. We learned so much and loved hearing the stories about the animals...especially the Black Dams (Dams?) and the leopards! The snack stops were so awesome....there is nothing like an African sunset although we enjoyed the sunrises so much too. I worried that my family wouldn't want to get up so early every day but Colin and Bennie drew us into the story of the African bush and we didn't want to miss a single second!

The staff at Monwana was waiting for us upon our arrival and greeted us with incredible warmth. Our first game drive was full of spectacular sightings and set the stage for our incredible four day stay at this heavenly lodge. There are too many amazing things to write about so you just have to BOOK YOUR STAY NOW and experience it! We would return to this place again in a heartbeat!!

We went to Table Mountain first thing and it was not to be missed. It was a clear day and we got there before it was crowded so the line for the funicular was very short. AMAZING views from the top. We loved all three wineries we toured. The scenery was fabulous and so was the wine! We stopped in Stellenbosch for some shopping which was also wonderful.

We loved this special experience. Nikki was an amazing chef and the food was soooo delicious! We loved the tour of her gardens and all the knowledge about the plants that she shared. She was entertaining and fun and her home was beautiful with lovely views!

Our guide, Rochelle was amazing! Penguins are the cutest things and it's so much fun to watch them. Beautiful scenery!
