Clouds Estate was simply breathtakingly beautiful experience. Fabulous, luxury accommodation set within the vineyards of Stellenbosch. Dinner in the evening was excellent and a lovely selection of hot and cold breakfast choices each morning. The pool area was clean and welcoming with stunning views making this a very relaxing few days. Staff were very welcoming and extremely helpful. A fabulous venue to celebrate a special Birthday. We received a recommendation for dinner at Graff estate next door and we were driven and collected by concierge at Clouds by golf buggy. We hope to return soon. Thanks for a wonderful stay, one I shall never forget. A huge thanks to Sharon for being so helpful and informative about the area.

Great place to stay!

An amazing stay. Service was excellent - in particular Hugo and Abigail stepped in when one of our party was ill, contacting a doctor and the local hospital on our behalf. The villa we stayed in was spectacular, with an infinity pool for the villa area. Food was outstanding as were the wines.

Clouds is a beautiful property. The staff, Unica and Murica were fantastic. They were patient and most helpful. The breakfast and dinner meals were very delicious.

We had a really lovely stay here for part of our honeymoon! The views are breathtaking, and the room was clean, large, and modern, and it was easy to get to both Stellenbosch and Franschoek as needed. The team was really helpful, even providing breakfast packs for our extremely early departure, which was very appreciated.

This is luxury personified. Stunning views, wonderful rooms with the option to stay in bespoke accommodation. Such as a private pool or hot tub options. There is simply no better view on the Helshgoote Pass. Staff were extremely helpful with nice touches to enhance guests stay throughout.

Great to place to explore the wine country

Wonderful hotel nestled between the mountains and hills around Stellenbosch. Great views from the room, restaurant and pool area. Very friendly staff and excellent food quality in the restaurant (both breakfast and dinner). Improvement point: staff could be more proactive when it comes to restaurants and wineries in the region.

Hotel was beautiful, if out in the country a bit. You need a car to get you from Capetown to Stellenbosch and then to the Clouds estate. Once there, the facilities are really nice and space is well used and appears larger than it actually is. The room was quite comfortable for 2 people. The lounge and deck are great meeting places and for dinner.

We had the most glorious stay in Clouds. The room and view were magnificent and the staff kind and attentive. This was off season so it was quiet, which was charming in itself. This was our last night in South Africa after an amazing vacation in Sabi Sands and the Western Cape. Clouds was a lovely place to finish our 30th anniversary trip and they were generous with bespoke attention. I would absolutely recommend here and would love to see it in the summer months too. Dinner and breakfast were very good. This is a beautiful area of the country.

Nice hotel, shame about the food poisoning

The hotel itself is beautiful. The views are stunning and the rooms are well made up for a short or long stay. However i have been suffering with food poisoning since we left so i have removed some stars. The restaurant was much quieter than expected and food for the first time in SA did not taste so great. The next 24 hours were very painful.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the clouds estate in Stellenbosch! We stayed for 3 nights, breakfast was lovely with so many options, including the standard buffet. Room was lovely and bathroom had heated floors. Hotel included a free wine tasting for guests and location was wonderful, with direct access to the lovely Delaire graff estate next door! We had dinner one night at the hotel and really enjoyed the food. It was a shame the weather was so poorly during our stay (it rained constantly for 2 days) so we did not get to enjoy the beautiful pool and stunning views. Seamless checkin and checkout. A little more interaction with reception staff and guests would have been nice. Overall, loved our stay and highly recommend this property!
