Pezula Resort Hotel & Spa, South Africa, has distinguished itself with another top international accolade, this time from Condé Nast Traveller magazine. At the annual Readers' Travel Awards ceremony held in London this week (Tuesday 2 September), Pezula Spa was named Best Overseas Hotel Spa, and ranked 46th overall in the magazine's World Top 100 list which pays tribute to the highest scorers in all categories.

With an overall score of 90.38, Pezula Spa topped the scores received by the world's most exotic hotel spas in places such as Thailand, the Caribbean, Europe, the Greek Islands and South Africa. The spas were judged on ambience, décor, amenities, products and cuisine.

The awards are viewed as the most prestigious travel distinctions in the world, and the ceremony, which took place at the Royal Institute of Great Britain in London, was attended by the leading players in the travel industry.

Pezula's Director of Hospitality, Russel Binks, said that he is absolutely delighted with the award. "We were up against very stiff competition and it is an honour and a privilege to be considered by the readers of such a prestigious magazine as a leader in this field. I'm extremely proud of what our Spa Manager, Corli Schoeman, and her dedicated team have achieved."
