Established in 1692 and led by the Enthoven family since 1993, the farm sits on more than 1,500 acres in Stellenbosch, South Africa. When it debuts this spring, Spier Hotel will offer guests a comprehensive experience of life on a working wine farm through immersive experiences and accommodations.

 

“The farm and hotel are an immersive place of peace and connection. Simple and timeless, with the elegance of comfort that never shouts. Set in a magnificent wild Cape garden, it’ll be a more intimate farm hotel and a more encompassing expression of our family’s philosophy,” said Mariota Enthoven, proprietor, Spier Wine Farm.

The spa uses products from an exclusive line crafted from farm-grown and wild-harvested botanicals. View the property’s 3,600-piece contemporary South African art collection thoughtfully displayed throughout public spaces. Hotel guests can enjoy exclusive access to immersive farm experiences and a kids’ program. Two private three-bedroom villas will debut in mid-2025. Villas accommodate up to six guests and include dedicated chef and butler service.
