Rooikat’s Salt Mine features wrap-around glass doors that let you spot giraffes from your stoep, or even your couch. Friends gather around the outdoor braai and share stories after a day of safaris by the sea, while families slow down and reconnect over board games. Some even come to work remotely with zebras as their real-life Zoom backgrounds, all set within the coastal fynbos landscape of the West Coast Private Game Reserve.
