From the moment we arrived at aha Alpine Heath Resort, we were greeted with warm hospitality and breathtaking views of Southern Africa’s highest mountain range. The staff welcomed us with refreshing drinks, a seamless check-in and a massage that made us feel instantly at home. The resort’s self-catering mountain village (with on-site restaurants should you prefer), with its 100 Deluxe Chalets, exudes rustic charm and modern comfort.

Modern amenities like satellite TV, free Wi-Fi, and excellent cellular reception ensured we stayed connected while immersed in nature’s embrace.

Alpine Heath is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts, offering a wide range of onsite and nearby activities. Onsite, we enjoyed the resort’s seven-day-a-week activity programme tailored for all ages. Children and adults alike will have a blast with putt-putt, tennis and volleyball, for those who are looking to keep active, fully equipped gym and squash court, mountain biking trails as well as a series of walks/hikes suited to every level of age group. The sparkling pool is also a refreshing retreat. With a dedicated children’s entertainment programme, parents can also get a well-deserved break too. Nearby horse riding and fishing excursions, arranged by the resort, added great variety to our adventure-filled days.

Relaxation and Pampering

For moments of tranquillity, we visited the Be Spoilt Beauty Salon & Spa, a serene oasis within the resort. An amazing facial and massage, performed by skilled therapists, was the perfect way to unwind after a day of exploration. The spa’s calming ambiance and stunning mountain views elevated the experience, leaving us refreshed and rejuvenated. We also spent leisurely afternoons relaxing by the pool, enjoying cocktails in the bar and taking leisurely strolls throughout the grounds.

Dining: A Culinary Delight

Dining at Alpine Heath is also a great experience, with a variety of options to suit every palate. The resort’s restaurants served a range of dishes, from hearty South African favourites to international cuisine, all crafted with fresh, local ingredients. We enjoyed a memorable braai at our chalet, the best part was we ordered everything we needed from the onsite Village Market. The resort’s main dining venue provided a warm, family-friendly atmosphere with stunning mountain views, while the cozy bar was the perfect spot for sundowners, and even a quick pizza.
