Incredible few days staying at the Plettenberg. We absolutely loved it and its a truly unique and special place. Starting firstly with the location - phenomenal views out onto Lookout and Central beaches with two infinity pools and views that you could stare at for days, plus making it easy to pop down to the beach as and when you wanted to. The interiors of the hotel are also absolutely stunning - each room oozes with class and colour - really stunning. Breakfast and lunch were delicious and the hotel also has a small gym with everything that you might need. The staff were also really wonderful and always on hand for recommendations or advice for the local area. We absolutely loved our stay here, cannot recommend it enough and would love to return.

This was one of our best hotel experiences ever! The setting, finishes, food and finer touches was exceptional. We had our little Maya Morkie with us and she was treated like a queen! You will have to go very far to find friendly and helpful staff like we experienced! It will be unfair to single anyone out so I will refrain from doing so - but it must be said, their are always a few people that elevates the brand to a different level! Thank you, we will soon be back ……Wouter, Jane and Maya de Vos

We have just spent 3 wonderful nights at this fabulous hotel. We did not want to leave. The views are out of this world. We had a very spacious, luxurious room overlooking the Indian ocean. Dolphins were surfing close by at breakfast and dinner!
The staff could not have made us feel more welcome.
Food was excellent and service outstanding.
We could not recommend highly enough and cannot wait to return.

The most gorgeous hotel, with amazing friendly helpful staff. Location is stunning with incredible views and just a short stroll to the beautiful beach. 2 wonderful pools where you can sit and watch dolphins and whales breaching. Our room
was bright and airy with modern decor, spotlessly clean. This was our favourite hotel of our whole trip.

Arrived at Plettenberg Bay Hotel on October 29th staying here for 3 nights. Very warm welcome from nice friendly staff, warm cloths and iced tea on arrival. Fabulous hotel and views are stunning.
Very beautifully decorated lounge areas. Lots of nice seating to relax. Nice location on the lounge by the pool to relax and take in the vista. Lovely attentive staff to constantly attends to your needs. Very secure parking with round the clock attendants to give you sense of security for your car. Beautiful dinning room to enjoy breakfast overlooking the pool and ocean. Nicest Caesar salad ever tasted and so reasonably priced for a 5 star hotel. Nice dinner and breakfast. Lovely cocktails served in the bar.
Over all 10/10

Room tip: Quiet time early spring but believe it will get super busy in high season.
