Sol Kerzner, owner of the One&Only hotel group, which is opening a new hotel in the Waterfront in May, and was the visionary creator of Sun City and the Palace of the Lost City, celebrated the new year with 300 friends and family at his Leeukoppie Estate in Hout Bay on New Year’s Eve.
While Kerzner lives in the UK now, he chose sunny Cape Town to entertain VIP guests including John Cleese, spotted at The Grand Cafe in Camps Bay the week before, Sir Richard Branson, and Sarah, Duchess of York and her two daughters, the Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie, reports The Times (renamed from the Sunday Times).
The newspaper reports that “showgirls” served the Moet & Chandon, while guests dined on Beluga caviar, oysters, crayfish, braaied chops and chicken, and pancakes. The crowning glory was a “magnificent” fireworks display at midnight.
