New boutique hotel has "bleisure" bliss in mind

Business travelers are seeking a better work-life balance and are demanding more out of the career commitments that require them to travel. They are increasingly looking for hotel establishments that make it easier for them to unwind when their deals are done. Not only are they traveling for "bleisure", but they are loving it too.

In fact, when the BridgeStreet Global Hospitality’s Bleisure Study published their 2014 Bleisure Report, 78% of respondents agreed that adding leisure days to business travel added value to work assignments. And six out of 10 of respondents were more likely to take “bleisure” trips today than they were five years ago. The newly launched Bliss Boutique Hotel in Sunset Beach, Cape Town aims to meet that need.

A short drive from the CBD takes you to this special part of the Cape coast, set within a fynbos reserve, where visitors relish the opportunity to experience the pristine beaches nearby and tune into the surrounding natural environment.

Those with relaxation in mind will want to extend their stay at this luxury, well appointed and conveniently located boutique property to lounge at the pool or enjoy a rejuvenating walk along the beach. The more adventurous watersports lovers won’t need to be asked twice to test their kitesurfing skills. Kiting has inspired many excursions to exotic locations and this one is amongst the best. The strip from Milnerton to Melkbosstrand in Cape Town is the centre of the kiting universe from December through February!

“Our guests are looking for something that goes beyond a certain standard of hospitality,” says Michelle Butler, GM of Bliss Boutique Hotel. “Some come alone, others with their partners or families but there is an increasing trend to couple business with pleasure among executives who travel.”

Guests can opt for one of eight luxurious rooms (four of which can be divided into suites for larger families) or rent the entire property, as a villa, should a conference – or after-work holiday – require it. Buisness necessities like Wi-Fi, printing and scanning are all readily available, and corporate lunches, functions, presentations, and events can easily be arranged. In fact, there’s no limit to what the hotel’s team will do to ensure a top-notch, hassle-free business and leisure travel experience. Your wish is, quite simply, their command.
