LUXURY COUNTRY RETREAT!
Chic, prestigious, luxurious: Kurland nestles on a private estate at the foothills of the Tsitsikamma Mountains.
More than half a century ago, Baron Peter Behr discovered a coastal paradise of exquisite beauty near Plettenberg Bay on the Garden Route in South Africa. The Baron purchased an Estate near Nature’s Valley, which he named Kurland after the Baltic province where he was born.
In 2000, his grandson Peter, and his wife Dianne, transformed the family homestead into a Luxury Boutique Hotel. Retaining its age-old reputation for great hospitality amidst spectacular natural beauty, Kurland soon received accolades. In 2002, it was Runner-up in the prestigious Tatler Hotel of the Year award.
The character of Kurland ensures that families are happy and relaxed, being designed with excellent facilities for children of all ages. Kurland is a family paradise.

Ubicación
