“Every Women’s Month we come up with a fabulous accommodation special for the ladies in our lives, because we know that a getaway where someone else does the dishes, makes the beds, and waits on us for a change is the ultimate treat,” says Zuki Jantjies, divisional director: sales and marketing.

“From the outset, we have diligently ensured no salary disparity based on race, gender or age.

A testament to this commitment is that 40% of our board and executive committee are women, a figure we actively strive to increase,” reports the 2025 Annual Integrated Report.
