Company information

La Dolce Vita Guesthouse has been operating for 18 years. We make every effort to create a tranquil and romantic environment at our guesthouse. We also own Harties Boat Company which offers daily scheduled 2 hour scenic boat cruises on Hartbeespoortdam. We have a combined 30 year experience in hospitality and we have a passion for our guests and for providing excellent service and for creating long lasting memories. La Dolce Vita Guesthouse is the perfect romantic getaway or venue for a small corporate function or retreat, not too far from Joburg or Pretoria

Property information

La Dolce Vita Guesthouse is a beautiful 8 bed roomed guesthouse with 180 degree views of the Hartbeespoortdam and the majestic Magaliesberg Mountain Range as your backdrop. All the rooms are individually and romantically decorated all with commanding views of Hartbeespoortdam. Experience a little old style Italian decor and hearty prepared and cooked meals. If you arrange with us beforehand, we’ll fill your room with fresh cut flowers, rose petals on the bed, chilled sparkling wine and an aromatherapy basket for you to enjoy in your private Jacuzzi spa bath. We also offer couples massages and boat cruises. You don’t have to go far from La Dolce Vita Guesthouse to experience the natural beauty of Harties. On our doorstep you’ll find the Kosmos Nature Trail – a scenic walk along the foreshore of the dam, and back through the very special and quaint Kosmos village.

Neighbourhood information

Hartbeespoort has become a hub of activity over the past few years, and visitors are never left with nothing to fill out their itineraries. Only 30 minutes from Johannesburg or Pretoria and whether your interest is in nature and wildlife, fine art, fabulous restaurants, or something a little more extreme like a canopy zipline tour, Harties has it all! From the Harties Aerial Cableway or a Balloon Safari trip, or a stroll with the African giants at the Elephant Sanctuary. Hartbeespoort Dam is a beautiful place to spend a lazy afternoon. It’s also the perfect place to get your adrenaline pumping with extreme water sports. Whatever your preference, we can help get you out on the water for an afternoon of fun. Through our sister company, Harties Boat Company, we have access to a number of vessels – from our 100-seater boat used for daily lunchtime and sunset cruises and speed boats. All our skippers are certified for you and your family’s safety. We’re experts on the area, so let us know if you need help creating an itinerary.
