A national treasure

South Africa’s most cherished hotel stands majestically on Umhlanga’s beachfront, overlooking the Indian Ocean & the iconic lighthouse.

Farewell, Palm Beach

The Chesterfield Palm Beach is no longer part of The Red Carnation Hotel Collection. We would like to extend a huge thank you to all of the guests we have had the pleasure of welcoming to The Chesterfield Palm Beach over the past 24 years, and to all of our travel partners for their support, we hope to welcome you all to another Red Carnation Hotel soon.

"Transformational"

None of us could have expected the experience we had throughout our stay. We knew it would be great, but Xigera has transformed what a guest experience could be for a luxury bush setting. The people, the service, the amenities, the design, all the products are transformational.

"Fantastic food"

The quality and range of the food on offer was fantastic. I loved the family dining style at mealtimes, especially dinner, as it allows one to experience, taste and enjoy different flavours and influences.

"A magical experience"

Arriving at the lodge via boat … the experience is brilliant and a magical way to “enter” this sanctuary. My Captain Brandon pointed out birds and other things of note along the way, so I felt as though I was getting a mini safari experience. Absolutely loved this way of starting my time at Xigera.

“The Okavango Delta is the gem of Botswana and Xigera is in the middle of the Okavango Delta. The waterways make this an exquisite and unique offering. It truly is paradise.”

"A once-in-a-lifetime vision & legacy"

A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be changed forever – so deeply grateful for that. This “love letter to Africa” is truly a gift to the world as a whole. What a vision, what a legacy! The best of hospitality meets the best of safari.

"Everyone knew my name"

Everyone was exceptionally welcoming. The staff throughout the camp were amazing. I specifically noticed that everyone knew my name, which was very thoughtful and I know guests love.
