The restaurant at the Saxon redefines the ultimate destination in fine dining where time stands still and nothing matters except the here and now. It is tastefully decorated with the same understated modern minimalist African elegance that echoes throughout the Saxon. Guests are seated at the tables laid with crisp, fresh linen and invited to savor superb delicacies.

The Saxon's world-class chefs ensure that guests are catered for with personalized cuisine that is prepared and presented to perfection with minute attention paid to every detail. The Head Chef adheres to a fundamental philosophy of preparing only the freshest local ingredients, aiming for dishes that are colorful and experiential.

Every morning starts with a breakfast buffet offering a colorful, appealing array of delicious fruit and seasonal berries served fresh as well as made into compôtes and coulis. The luncheon and dinner menus are changed seasonally, with sensational new dishes incorporating African game meat and seafood delicacies such as crayfish.

The wine cellars, with their enchanting ambience that exudes a rich cultural heritage, also serve as exclusive dining areas for couples or small groups accompanied by a bottle of impeccable vintage wine from some of the world's most renowned estates. The dining library, which houses an eclectic collection of reading material and is decorated with watercolors depicting ancient indigenous African weaponry, is another ideal venue for hosting private dinner parties.

The cool, wide Pool Terrace is an inviting area where you can relax and while away the late afternoon, sipping sundowners as you take in the spectacular sunsets. From there you can gravitate to the Olive Bar, beyond which you will find the well-stocked, impressive koi pond that never fails to evoke gasps of wonderment from visitors from far and wide. Just across the way is the outdoor heated pool that leads to the well-equipped fitness centre complete with an expertly supervised gymnasium. The underwater music emanating from the pools lends a special magic to the enchantment of this picturesque setting.
