"One of the most romantic hotels in the world," this property secures a perfect location score for its mountain backdrop in the Western Cape wine region. The restored eighteenth-century estate has perfect-scoring "stunningly appointed suites," which are decorated in Cape Dutch style. Housed in the T-shaped manor house, Bosman's serves seared foie gras and pan-fried white stumpnose—"the food is so good and so unique." Hot-air ballooning and horseback riding are available nearby. "Sunsets over the vineyards hypnotize your soul and demand that you return to this magical retreat."
