Swimming Pools

In addition to two private plunge-pools, The Westcliff Estate boasts two heated horizon pools, the most notable being the infinity pool on the Pool Terrace, with a bird’s eye view of the Johannesburg Zoological Gardens below. Swim to the edge and gaze down upon elephant and springbok – a singular sensation and what’s become known as the safari swim! 

Tennis 

High above the city’s northern suburbs, the all-weather tennis court turns an ordinary game into something special – particularly if playing at night under floodlight. (As Johannesburg is located some 6000 feet above sea-level, this is a case of playing tennis a mile high - literally!)

The Gymnasium

With magnificent, breathtaking views, the well-equipped gymnasium is available to all guests for use. A personal trainer can be arranged upon request.

Jogging and Cycling

Explore the historic surrounds of Westcliff and Parkview by taking off on one of the four mountain bikes available for the exclusive use of hotel guests.



Golf

An incredible 36 of the top 100 golf courses in South Africa are located within an hour’s driving time from Johannesburg’s northern suburbs, which means golfers are more than spoilt for choice.

Golfing enthusiasts can enjoy the facilities of a nearby club, which offers guest membership benefits to guests of The Westcliff.  

Moreover, your golfing experience in the city can be made considerably more pleasant and easy by hiring the services of a golf concierge service.  Arrangements can be made via the Front Desk.
