Ways to pay that suit South Africa

We accept US dollars, euros, pounds sterling and Rwandan francs. From South Africa, the simplest way is usually a card, which your bank converts from South African rand, or a bank transfer in US dollars.

If you pay in crypto, USDT and USDC are accepted on all networks, as well as Bitcoin; the network and the receiving address are confirmed by the concierge in writing.

Cash works too: US dollars or Rwandan francs, paid on arrival at the villa, with a written receipt from the concierge.

Your price in South African rand

Villas start from $200 a night, which is about 3,300 rand at today's rate. The figure in South African rand is a guide: stays are quoted in US dollars, and the concierge confirms the exact amount in writing before you pay.

Exchange rate updated daily and shown as a guide; the concierge confirms the exact amount before you pay.

Payment details come only from the concierge

Payment details are sent by the concierge, in writing, once your dates are confirmed, and never appear on this website. If anyone else sends you details, check with the concierge first.

Good to know

Each villa is booked to one group at a time, with a house manager on site and daily housekeeping. An invoice in your company's name is available on request. Short stays only: the villas receive guests for holidays, trips and celebrations.

Arranged by your concierge

Ask the concierge for airport pickup at any hour, an invoice in your company's name and help with currency exchange: each is arranged for a fee quoted before you confirm. Every arrangement is confirmed in writing before your stay.
