“Protea Hotel By Marriott Polokwane Ranch Resort stands out as a unique destination, nestled within a malaria-free nature conservancy just outside Polokwane. The blend of family-friendly leisure and adventure activities, like horseback safaris across 1000 hectares, appeals. I'm particularly drawn to the opportunity for gourmet dining at Basil's, a restaurant distinguished with a Chaine des Rotisseurs French award.”
