Detailed Reviews
We were welcomed at Scallop Lodge by Heidi the guesthouse owner with Cappuccino. A very nice and helpful host. The guesthouse has a great Pool and is located near the ocean (3 min by foot).
The rooms are very clean and tastefully decorated. The breakfast in the lodge was very tasty and varied.
In addition, there was a parking Garage, Wi-Fi and a safe.
We had an unforgettable time and would come back anytime.
Kind regards,
Maxi and Julia

The hotel was good and the direct beach location was great. The rooms are a bit old, but designed with a lot of love. The service and breakfast were absolutely fantastic. We enjoyed our time and can recommend it to others.

Booking was confirmed and then it was cancelled by the owner of this guesthouse, claiming that the booking system did not work correctly. Surprisingly this was made transparent quite some time after the booking. WATCH OUT as you can not plan with this guesthouse and booking may be cancelled shortly before arrival.

Check-in only possible until 8 p.m. - after we announced that we would be half an hour late, they waited for us - great. Good restaurant tips. Nicely furnished. Pool unfortunately in the shade in the evening. Very good value for money

We stayed at the Scallop Lodge for just one night, but we wish we could have stayed longer! The staff was top notch. Super helpful and friendly. The check in process can be a little confusing because you have to go to one place first and then they take you over to the actual lodge, but it was seamless for us.
The lodge itself is very modern, the room and bathroom were spacious. The bathroom itself was gorgeous with a giant tub that was great after being on the road for a while. It was a nice walk to the beach that's very close by. The pool shown in the photos is a little small, but looked enjoyable nonetheless and they provided lounge chairs and towels. Not an issue at all for us. The breakfast in the morning was fantastic-we got to eat outside on the patio, which was amazing. Our room was very quiet, and we had a patio that lead out to the garden. They have a garage where you can park your car inside safely.
Overall, I would absolutely recommend this wonderful spot. It definitely keeps up with the B&B hype in South Africa!

Fantastic location, room, facilities, staff, breakfast....perfect - only downside is shared/ communal area if ppl come in drunk and watch TV at midnight but perfect otherwise 😀 Beach is 3mins’ walk away and is beautiful to relax and stroll upon.

This 5 bedroom B and B is designed so well. Beautiful interior design and a lot of space. The ladies who run the incredible breakfasts are lovely. Rooms are spacious, very clean and well equipped. However. The wifi is appalling. I needed to send an urgent email and had to go to the nearest cafe to send. We needed to skype family on Christmas Day and had to use 4g. Manager said there wasn’t a problem. There was. Also. It’s not walkable into town so you either need to drive or get a taxi. No Uber in Plett. Beautiful place. Would give five stars if wifi was working.
