Luxury Accommodation South Africa

About The Portfolio Collection

When it comes to finding independently owned luxury accommodation in South Africa, Namibia and Swaziland, Portfolio is your trusted and reliable friend. Since 1992, we have travelled the length and breadth of the land, from the big cities of Cape Town, Durban and Johannesburg, to major tourist areas like the Garden Route and the Kruger Park, to the obscure and fascinating fringes of Southern Africa. Our assessors have personally visited and checked, in detail, every aspect of the guest experience at each of our establishments. We’ve met the owners, stayed in the rooms, taken in the views, enjoyed the meals to ensure that your experience is the best.

Meet and make friends with the owners and their friendly teams, who extend a warm South African welcome to you in some of the best 600 independently owned quality accommodation establishments, from Bed and Breakfasts (B&Bs), Guest Houses, Private Game Lodges, Boutique Hotels, Country Houses, Villas, Apartments, Farms and Cottages throughout South Africa, Namibia and Swaziland.

The Portfolio name and reputation has been built over 29 years as the definitive guide to quality, luxury accommodation in South Africa. Our benchmarking standards are as stringent today as ever and many visitors to this country will only stay in establishments featured in our three Guides. So don’t leave this vital aspect of your journey to chance, or a few clever words on an indiscriminate website, travel the Portfolio way - the informed choice for the independent traveller.

Enjoy your South African sojourn.
