amazing
Pros:

The most fabulous hotel with wonderful management, they managed through the storm with such strength and professionalism. Made the days before my son's wedding so special. And then there is Lumo, what a beautiful girl, and just shows the hearts of the team. I loved my stay at the Protea Mariott Franschhoek where we booked ten rooms. We will be back
