The thing our team loved most about Newlands Peak Aparthotel by Totalstay is that it offers the best of both worlds: everything luxurious that you’d expect from a hotel stay and everything comfortable that you’d expect from home. Rather than staying in a room as you would at a hotel, Newlands Peak Aparthotel offers, as the name implies, apartments. All apartments are equipped with comfortable queen-sized beds, smart TVs and seating, offering a perfect place…

Several members of Team #FinishTime stayed at SunSquare Cape Town Gardens when in the Mother City to time one of our bigger events, and the general consensus was that this is an outstanding place to stay, whether you’re on a work trip or a holiday. The first of many reasons for this was the comfortable rooms. Each has an en-suite bathroom, aircon, a mini fridge and a flatscreen TV. Also (and this is always a…

Beaufort West is a common stopping point for Team #FinishTime on the road between Cape Town and our home base just outside Durban. Die Herehuis Guesthouse has joined the list of one of our favourite spots to stay in this area of the Western Cape.

Villa Jesdene’s website proclaims that they offer exceptional service, a tranquil environment and luxurious finishes. Having stayed there for a few days on a recent work trip to Cape Town, Team #FinishTime can vouch for the fact that this is 100% accurate. Whether we were relaxing on a sun lounger by the pool, enjoying a delectable meal in the dining room or winding down in our comfortable air-conditioned room, we found it rather too easy…

If you’re looking for a hotel in Mossel Bay that offers breathtaking ocean views, then Diaz Hotel & Resort is the place to be. Members of our team visit Mossel Bay at least once a year and this hotel is a firm favourite. There’s simply no better way to relax and unwind after a challenging day of work or racing than to spend time in the deck chair on your own private sea-facing balcony. The…

If a picture says 1000 words, then the views from Protea Hotel Stellenbosch and Conference Centre must equate to a novel. With the breathtaking mountains in the background and the beautiful greenery of the Winelands front and centre, there can be few hotels in the world that can match these views. While our team was in Stellies on a work trip, we were grateful to be able to spend a few moments admiring the splendour…

On Q Accommodation’s website describes this guesthouse as “your home away from home in Bellville” and in the view of Team #FinishTime, it more than lived up to its name. While spending time in the area to time the Boland 100 Miler race, two members of our team stayed at On Q and they’ve both said that they would love to go back when they have more time to simply relax and make the most…

Two members of our team recently stayed at Cummings Guest House while working on an event near Wellington, and the first thing they told us about the place was that it absolutely lives up to its slogan that calls it “a home away from home”. For starters, the spacious suites overlook a central pool area, which makes one feel as though one’s at home in a welcoming environment. The dynamic mother-daughter duo in charge at…
