From City to Safari to Sea: Three Ways to Travel This February

From the opulent marble floors of a plush city hotel to the sand beneath your feet, Newmark Hotels & Reserves has an exciting spectrum of destinations with three distinct styles for those seeking a romantic getaway. Make February your month of choice and fine-tune your ultimate luxurious escape.

Lose Yourself in the City

Cities are spectacular escapes, providing enchanting hidden places to explore even in the midst of the corporate buzz. Step out of a meeting and straight into a cool, calm hotel just across the road and you are transported into another world. The Catalyst Hotel in Sandton is one such destination, offering couples packages complete with exquisite dining and spa massages.

Further south in the city of Cape Town, urbanites will discover contemporary luxury with a fine blend of hospitality at The Rockefeller Hotel. For longer stays and a private home away from home, The Onyx Hotel delivers apartment-style living  on a platter, curated with premium design features and modern amenities.

Untamed and Unfazed: Romantic Roaming on Safari

If you’re already feeling the urge to peel away the pressure of the new working year, let your hair down and roam among majestic wildlife on an African safari.

Some of the best safari lodges in the Newmark Hotels & Reserves portfolio make it possible for you to experience wildlife up close, whether it’s from a horizon-facing balcony or an open-sided 4x4 during a guided evening game drive.

Walking safaris at Motswari Private Game Reserve set the scene perfectly for couples to unwind and immerse themselves in nature.

Relax to the Ebb and Flow of the Ocean

If you had to choose between the pristine blue waters of Mauritius, Zanzibar, or Cape Town, which would you go for? It may take a while to pick just one, but that’s precisely the point – being spoiled for choice!

With the barefoot elegance of La Maison d’Été in Mauritius to the exotic spice-infused island  at Chuini Zanzibar Hotel and the cosmopolitan royal experience of Sea Point Promenades’ Winchester Hotel, there is so much to choose from.

Rather than the confines of set itineraries and standard getaways, this February is all about daring to dream a little, booking that ticket, and then waiting to see where the current takes you.

Why Choose Newmark for Elegant Escapes

Following announcements of some new hotels and refurbishments of old favourites late last year, Newmark Hotels & Reserves is now warmed up and ready to offer even more magical moments in some of the world’s most beautiful, inviting places.

Refined luxury seekers, wine connoisseurs, adventurers, and hopeless ocean-sunset romantics will all find something to fall in love with in our stunning luxury hotel portfolio.

Make February a month to remember and travel to somewhere that captures the heart. Book here for safari, city, and sea escapes in 2026.
