I have put it in <> where the error is:
in the last line ' is not needed.check it.

$message = 'Cape Town Alive - Cape Xtreme Booking Request'
. 'Name:' . cleanPosUrl($_POST);
. 'Email:' . cleanPosUrl($_POST);
. 'Staying:' . cleanPosUrl($_POST);
. 'Country:' . cleanPosUrl($_POST);
. 'Contact:' . cleanPosUrl($_POST);
. 'Actvity:' . cleanPosUrl($_POST);
. 'Comments:' . cleanPosUrl($_POST); <'>;

Changed it around a bit, rather look at this code:

$message = 'Cape Town Alive - Cape Xtreme Booking Request' <br> 'Name:' . cleanPosUrl($_POST['posName']); . 'Email:' . cleanPosUrl($_POST['posEmail']); . 'Staying:' . cleanPosUrl($_POST['posStaying']); . 'Country:' . cleanPosUrl($_POST['posCountry']); . 'Contact:' . cleanPosUrl($_POST['posContact']); . 'Actvity:' . cleanPosUrl($_POST['posActivity']); . 'Comments:' . cleanPosUrl($_POST['posComments']);

Try this.

$message = 
"Cape Town Alive - Cape Xtreme Booking Request <br> Name: ". cleanPosUrl($_POST['posName']) ."Email: ". cleanPosUrl($_POST['posEmail']) ."Staying: ". cleanPosUrl($_POST['posStaying']) ."Country:". cleanPosUrl($_POST['posCountry']) ."Contact: ". cleanPosUrl($_POST['posContact']) ."Actvity: ". cleanPosUrl($_POST['posActivity']) ."Comments: ". cleanPosUrl($_POST['posComments']);

Umm.. Why are you having ; at the end of every function call ? Moreover, <br> is a html tag and it should be in quotes.
