“A magnificent tea planter’s bungalow, transformed into an indulgent five-bedroom boutique hotel with enchanting views over tea-clad hills. Beautifully styled rooms and suites perfectly combine colonial decor with a contemporary feel and top-notch luxuries. Divine food and garden with pool.”

Hotel review

A hidden gem, Nine Skies is a bucolic haven set amidst the spectacular scenery of the southeastern Hill Country. Stylish design fuses colonial charm with contemporary luxury in five beautifully appointed rooms, ideal for unwinding. Think long lazy baths and local tea sipped on private terraces. Crack into croquet on the lawn and admire striking views from the slender infinity pool, before gathering with fellow guests for sundowners in the lovely sitting room. Food is an absolute highlight here, from big hearty breakfasts to delectable à la carte dinners brimming with local produce. Romantic and relaxed, this is a top spot for couples – though the house also makes a splendid hideaway for groups of friends or families, who can nab the interconnecting Family Suite.
