    My recent stay was my second at DeZeven, this time on a personal visit with my husband. I am in the Winelands at least twice a year, and have stayed at numerous lodges in the region over the past decade, but DeZeven is by far my favorite place for scenery, service and outstanding R&R. With only a small number of rooms, highly personal service, and some of the most dazzling views of any accommodation in the Cape Winelands, it really leaves quite an impression. Artfully decorated with wide open spaces and sizable rooms, and offering beautifully presented and prepared breakfasts, it's got it all for the traveller that prefers that extra bit of luxury without the pretension that so often accompanies that. Because there are no twin bed options, it's really a place for couples or solo travelers, so also nice and quiet, but complimented by a friendly and attentive staff. It's an ideal place for honeymooners and luxury travel couples seeking a more relaxing venue where they might spend as much time on the property as off. One caveat: with its location just off the mountain pass road, it may not be ideal for those travelers - particularly first time visitors to Stellenbosch - who might prefer ready access and easy walking options to area shops, restaurants and other tourist attractions. But fear not: if serenity, scenery and a spectacular place are a top priority, just make sure to have a car so you can readily access the many wineries, restaurants, and attractions nearby, or enlist the services of an executive transportation service with the help of staff to ensure transfers to and from all those venues. I've done both, and with those accesses in place, am now completely hooked on DeZeven. I highly recommend it to the luxury class traveler.

    Me and my husband had such an amazing experience at the Guest House. The owners and staff are so friendly, and makes you feel so welcome. The view is absolutely breathtaking, and there is a wide variety of breakfast options which is included. The rooms are very spacious and beautifully decorated, very much attention to detail. The location is very central, and surrounded by various wine farms. They supply you with everything you need, sunblock, coffee capsules in the room, fresh iced tea at the swimming pool etc. We would highly recommend this for a romantic breakaway weekend or even a family getaway.

    Such an amazing place, with breath-taking views, great facilities and incredibly nice staff. We couldn't ask for any more from our stay and will definitely be returning in the future.

    We had a wonderful 2-nights stay at De Zeven and enjoyed amazing views, delicious wine & excellent service! The lodge only has 11 rooms so you need to book in advance! Highly recommended!

    We spent 4 wonderful days in this little paradise in Stellenbosch. A beautiful lodge, stylishly decorated, a warm welcome... from the very beginning, we felt at home. The breakfast was delicious, and since we had already made reservations at restaurants, we unfortunately couldn't try the little delicacies that the house offers. The wine bar was well stocked, and there were so many lovely nooks to retreat with a glass of wine. The view of the valley from the lodge is simply breathtaking. The extensive garden is wonderfully maintained, and in the early morning, the lounges and seating in the garden are already prepared. If needed, you can also use a sauna (with an equally beautiful view of the vineyards). A huge compliment to the entire team Greetings Bernhard & Iris

    This guest house has an EPIC pool and incredible attention to detail in everything they do. All interior and exterior spaces look ready to be featured in a magazine. A delicious breakfast is included in the rate. And an honor bar is set up to have a beer or glass of wine at the pool or on your veranda. Would highly recommend.

    Had the most incredible stay at De Zeven during our honeymoon. Everything was amazing - the breakfasts, the view, the room, the local artwork - but the service was particularly amazing.

    Truly a majestic beauty of a place! An amazing piece of heaven you must visit between the best wineries of Stellenbosch. The breakfast, staff and garden will make you feel at home and never wanna leave.

    This has to be one of the best hospitality we have ever received from a hotel/guest lodge. Adriaan is such an amazing host and goes the extra mile for his guests. The services from food, sauna and spa were exceptional. Rooms are cosy and has exceptional views. The weather was cold and rainy so they lit the fire place which is where we sat all weekend. Thank you for making our anniversary weekend special. Will definitely recommend everyone and be back again :)

    One of the best places my wife and I have stayed. The surrounding views is out of this world followed closely by the impeccable service. We'd like to specifically recognize Russell for this warm greeting and knowledge. The personal touch with the amenities and services with our stay exceeded our expectations. We will return in the future with family and friends. We look forward to showing them what a real vacation looks like. Thank you to the DeZeven team!

    We had such a lovely stay at De Zeven Guest house. My husband and I were welcomed with open arms. We Absolutely loved the beautiful gardens and spent the evenings by the fire place in the entertainment area. We loved the idea of the “honesty bar” and the breakfast was delicious. The staff were very friendly and professional. I highly recommend this beautiful guesthouse.

    De Zeven Guest Lodge is the perfect venue for an intimate wedding celebration / elopement. Nestled between the beautiful Stellenbosch vineyards and the Banhoek Valley mountains, this venue will definitely take your breath away. Offering exclusive amenities and service with a smile, this is a must see!

    I booked my elopement with De Zeven without even visiting the premises! The best decision ever, the setup is beautiful with great hospitality. The team definitely went above and beyond with assisting last minute changes and requests. Thank you De Zeven Guesthouse team for making it a memorable occasion for years to come. Looking forward to coming back again 😍

    Excellent lodge. Beautiful and stunning views on Simons kloof and mountain. We have the beautiful pool suite and it’s lovely. Good beds and very mice shower area. Sauna has a fabulous view too! Breakfast has everything you need. One small remark is that we would love t have a fresh juice in the morning.

    My 3rd visit at De Zeven Lodge and it just stays magical. The rooms are very comfortable and nicely designed, the pool area and views are just magnificent. Further we also enjoyed the sauna sessions with a jump in the ‘colder’ pool. Thanks again team we loved it and see you soon again!

    De Zeven was the highlight of our trip to Cape Town! We had a wonderful stay at De Zeven - breathtaking views, excellent service, and beautiful decor & property. Our favorite place was the viewing area with a fireplace and full windows overlooking the mountain- the perfect place to wind down and relax. The sauna room also has a beautiful view. Highly recommended!
