The Royal Portfolio is a collection of exclusive hotels, lodges and private residences located in iconic destinations across South Africa. Each hotel is unique and each experience is authentic.
The Royal Portfolio began in 1999 when my husband Phil and I decided to convert our holiday home in the African bush into what is now Royal Malewane. As a family we were privileged to enjoy wonderful holidays there – we had so many happy memories and we wanted to share those lovely experiences with others.
The Royal Portfolio will always be a family business and it’s important to us that our guests feel that sense of familiarity and comfort when staying with us. I sincerely hope that you will enjoy staying in our hotels as much as I have enjoyed creating them. We have tried to create a collection of quintessentially South African hotels which showcase the very best South African experiences (download our e-brochure here).
We look forward to welcoming you into The Royal Portfolio family.
Situated in South Africa’s most spectacular destinations, The Royal Portfolio offers unrivaled accommodation experiences. Discover our luxury hotels below.
