HALFWAY ACROSS THE WORLD

The word Africa probably brings to mind several stereotyped images, but does it ever conjure up stunning beaches, vast forests, and immense mountains all in one beautiful area? If not then you have never heard about Hotel Le Vendome in Cape Town, South Africa.

This five-star luxury hotel allows you to be close to all the sights of Cape Town you will want to experience. Try a wild African safari one day, and the next day immerse yourself in a massive shopping center. There are many fine dining opportunities and two championship golf courses nearby. With a five-star hotel, it only makes sense to play golf on a five-star course. Try your hand at the Atlantic Beach Gold Course and Clovelly Golf Course. Both courses offer gorgeous views. The native birds, guinea fowl and pheasant, roam the sand dunes close by adding to the peaceful ambiance.

Hotel Le Vendome has a classic flare with its old French style architecture but still incorporates all the conveniences of technology. The hotel's restaurant, Rive Gauche, is well-known for its culinary masterpieces and the local wines are a perfect addition to the scrumptious meals. A standard room at Hotel Le Vendome runs at $355 per night and prices are subject to change. For more information visit cybercapetown.com/LeVendome/index.php.
