Located in the centre of Plettenberg Bay, the newly renovated Bayview Hotel is surrounded by a host of vibrant shops, art galleries, nightlife and restaurants and is still within 800 metres of 2 of Plett’s 6 Blue Flag status beaches. Boasting 36-ensuite rooms, we are perfectly suited to families, local and overseas travellers, tour groups and business travellers. Nestled on the spectacular coastline of the world-renowned Garden Route, the Bayview Hotel offers breathtaking views of the Keurbooms River, Lookout Beach & Tsitsikamma mountain range. As one of our valued guests, our friendly and professional staff is sure to make your stay an unforgettable experience, for which we recommend an (absolute minimum!) of 3 nights to explore at least some of Plettenberg Bays’ endless activities and adventures. We are only a 7-minute drive from the (must-do!) Plettenberg Bay Airport, and +/- 1 hour from George Airport and are the perfect halfway stop between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth. The hotel offers an on-site and independently-run restaurant, Adi’s Kitchen, as well as Face Facts beauty salon. A “Kiddies’ Corner” for the little ones, with conference and meeting room facilities by arrangement. There is free secure undercover off-street parking as well as coach parking for tour groups. The Bayview Hotel team is eager to assist with recommendations on various activities, such as ocean fishing & diving excursions, hiking, sailing, bird watching, bungy jumping, and whale and dolphin watching, to mention a few, all of which are in close proximity to the Hotel.

Pretoria, South Africa1 contribution
I had the best stay at this amazing hotel with a great atmosphere. I was supposed to stay for 2 nights but it ended up being 4 nights due to the amazing people, clean rooms and great views. At first I worried about this place being in the city but it’s quiet and conveniently located. The people are the commodity of this hotel though. The restaurant in the hotel is very convenient and serves great food. Load shedding doesn’t impact anything on this hotel which was great

The best location offering 5 star accommodation, must say the room was clean and comfortable, beautifully appointed. Adi's Kitchen in Bayview Hotel complimented the stay with the most delicious and value for money meals! Our favourites was the fish & chips and chicken curry dish. For breakfast the eggs benedict with the hollandaise sauce! All the staff, including the restaurant staff & waiters was very friendly and helpful. All and all it was a superb experience!

Lovely hotel in the center of Plettenburg Bay. Rooms a big bright and spacious. Staff couldn't have been more helpful. Had some nice sea views. Restaurant attached has some delicious food all reasonably priced. Walking distance to shops and a 15-30min walk down to the beach depending on route/beach location. Was a little noisy outside my room as I was above the main entrance so a tour group gathered outside as they left early but didn't affect my stay. Other than that, stay was good, no complaints at all.

This hotel is well located, we stayed in the honeymoon suite and the views were amazing. We had to have all our food brought to our room as I was nursing a broken ankle. The food all comes from Adi’s kitchen and it was absolutely fantastic and very reasonably priced. The waitresses even made an exception and brought breakfast up to us too. The service was fast and efficient and always delivered with a smile. The hotel is very clean and rooms comfortable. Big thanks to reception staff Anthea and Matthew who couldn’t have been more helpful.

This was a great find in central Plettenburg Bay. We wish we had time to stay longer. The staff was incredibly accommodating, helping with a last minute booking and early arrival. The rooms were comfortable and a great value for money. The breakfast in the morning was exceptional. Would definitely stay again if in the area.

Stayed a couple of times at the Bayview Hotel and it has now become my home from home. Staff are most welcoming, friendly and oh so helpful. The rooms are spacious and well appointed, have my best sleeps when my head touches their pillows. The Hotel is centrally situated in Plett so you are close to everything and they have safe and secure parking. I cannot recommend the Bayview enough, it is the most enjoyable place to stay at, so do yourself a favour if wanting to stay in Plett then have a great time and booking into the Bayview Hotel.

We always try and stay at the Bayview Hotel when visiting Plettenberg Bay. Room are spotless, well appointed and you hardly notice when there is load shedding. Although it is on a main road, noise is not an issue at all, making its central location perfect. Staff are friendly and professional. Good restaurant in a light and airy setting. Highly recommend this hotel.
