October 6, 2017 by SuitcasesandLattes Leave a Comment

Another year gone, another birthday. And what a better way to celebrate than with some pampering?

Sometimes…. you feel stuck in a black hole and life starts to feel like an episode of Mr Robot, or worse, the Walking Dead.  In an attempt to help me see out the hole, my partner purchased a WikiDeal spa voucher at the Sugar Hotel and Spa. This simple, kind act meant so much to … [Read more…]

Outdoor fun with Acrobranch Constantia, Cape Town

September 14, 2016 by SuitcasesandLattes Leave a Comment

I was invited to Acrobranch Constantia and didn’t hesitate to say “YES!”. I was keen to check out the obstacle course as it looked physically demanding and included some zip-lining (my favourite!). The day arrived with a mix of terror and excitement. Acrobranch Constantia is situated opposite to the entrance of the Constantia Nek  hike. … [Read more…]

Winter Getaways: Accommodation near Cape Town with Heated Pools

June 13, 2016 by SuitcasesandLattes 6 Comments

Winter is a great time to go on holiday. Hotels usually run Winter specials and things tend to be less -which makes for a great escape from the daily grind.
