As much as I miss travelling overseas and to other provinces in South Africa, I must be honest and say that I am thoroughly enjoying exploring my own city now as a tourist.
I’ve eaten at restaurants I never knew existed and stayed at luxury hotels I didn’t know were hidden in the city like SEVEN Villa Hotel & Spa.
This 5-star hotel offers something for the entire family from good food, spacious hotel rooms, and spa treatments that will leave you refreshed and relaxed which I think we could all do with right now.
I must say, the bathroom was a highlight for me… That bathtub… Okay, I may be considering doing a bathroom makeover right now.
Even though I was in the city, I felt exactly like how I do when I travel anywhere else in the world. There’s just something about a pretty hotel room that changes your mood and helps you be calm.
I lazed around with a good book, soaked in the sun, and took a bubble bath not once but twice during my stay. It was the perfect mini-getaway I needed to take a break from the craziness happening around me. The sound of the water streaming outside my room just made me feel like I wasn’t in the city.
The best part is the hotel has packages available right now which is worth checking out if you are looking for a weekend escape that is budget-friendly too.
Something to do with the kids at SEVEN Villa Hotel & Spa:
Treat your family to a wonderful five-star staycation in the heart of Sandton.
- Movie night done the right way!
The cost is R250 per person.
The hotel can do the screening in your room, in a conference room on the big screen (depending on number of children) or in a private lounge area that has a wall-mounted TV.
- Picnic experiences and can also light the fire pits for the kids to toast marshmallows.
- Treasure hunts for kids in the gardens (a chocolate/candy hunt).
- Pizza station on the outside patio.
The kids will get the dough and all the toppings, and the chef will then take it to the kitchen to cook it for them.
