The individually decorated rooms and suites are fitted with a flat-screen TV and tea-and-coffee making facilities. The family stable suites have an upstairs loft area for children.

Rate T'Niqua Stables & Lodge was truly one of the highlights of our trip in South Africa. Located high above the cliffs of Plett, far from the noise and lights of the town, this place is magic. Our hosts, Betina and Machil were friendly, warm and incredibly hospitable. Everything about T'Niqua is unique and special. The rooms are superb. Much thought and imagination has been invested in a completely unique environment. The food was excellent, and our hosts really made an effort to engage and make us feel at home.

We are traveling with a one and three year old through south Africa and she arranged two baby beds for us and even a high chair! The apartment is also cleaned on a daily basis which was a nice extra.

I booked the dorm and was "upgraded" to a two-bed-dorm. Everything is clean, there is a kitchen for everybody, a living room and a nice outdoor place.
