Company information

The vision to build a leisure company started in 2007 when we acquired our first property Aan de Oever. We wanted to share more of our beautiful town, Swellendam, with guests and travelers from all over the world and gradually the Aan de Leisure Collection evolved to 37 rooms to date. We are an ever evolving and growing company and our dream does not stop here. We have a passion for hospitality and strive to create spaces for guests where they can relax and feel at home. We pride ourselves in delivering excellent service at world class standards. Respect for our community and each other as well as the opportunities we create and work hard for, is the foundation to our success. With our ongoing development, we are creating job opportunities, putting food on family tables and adding pride and passion within the people who work with us. We are proud to be part of an ever developing, respected and progressive company.
