Our mission is to provide not just a stay, but an exceptional experience that leaves a lasting impression, with personal attention at every touchpoint to make each patron feel valued and appreciated. We are proud to integrate sustainable practices that ensure our legacy is not only one of excellence but also one of responsibility towards the planet.

A pivotal transformation
In 2024, the group underwent a pivotal transformation, rebranding as The Cork Tree Collection. This strategic decision was inspired by several key factors:
- A Proudly South African Identity: While our previous name, Mont d'Or, carried prestige, it did not fully align with our core value of being proudly South African. The Cork Tree Collection reflects our deep connection to our roots and the local culture, embodying the spirit of authenticity and pride that defines us.
- Commitment to Sustainability: The name also mirrors our dedication to sustainability. The cork oak tree is a powerful symbol of renewal and environmental stewardship, as it is the only tree that allows its bark to be harvested without causing harm. This aligns seamlessly with our goal of implementing sustainable practices across all our properties.
- A Celebration of Uniqueness: We chose the word “Collection” because it better reflects the essence of our brand. Each of our properties is unique, curated with care, and designed to offer distinctive experiences. Unlike a traditional group, The Cork Tree Collection is a celebration of individuality and thoughtful curation. This rebrand marks a significant milestone in our journey and underscores our unwavering commitment to our vision. It represents not just a change in name but a clearer, more effective alignment with our values and aspirations. The Cork Tree Collection is a testament to our purpose: to honour our heritage, embrace sustainability, and deliver unparalleled hospitality experiences.
