    Awesome town with a mix of forests, beach and mountains to explore. Close proximity to a few popular hiking trails, zipline and water activities. Lookout deck great for some great food, good music (Shaz) and drinks. Burlington for some awesome tapa style food at a brewery. Plenty of small shops and markets close by as well on the Saturday.

    Wonderful holiday town. Easy to get around.

    Wonderful holiday town. Easy to get around. Lots to do and see in and around Plettenberg Bay. Be careful whe choosing accommodation. Booking.com asked our arrival time at our accommodation booked which we said will be between 16h00 and 17h00. We had the option to pay on arrival. For security we gave our credit card number on booking.com. However...our host put the payment through at 14h00 when we were stil in Knysna. Our host added an additional fee to our booking. Our host had his own reasons for charging the additional fee. We arrived in time. Will not recommend The Green Palm Cottage

    Our family's time in Plettenberg Bay was truly unforgettable...

    Our family's time in Plettenberg Bay was truly unforgettable. The town's central location made exploring the area a breeze, with convenient access to local amenities like grocery stores and the stunning nearby beaches. We were thrilled to discover attractions such as the Knysna Elephant Park and Adventure Land, just a short drive away, adding excitement to our vacation. However, one thing to note is that there are limited halaal food options in the area, which posed a challenge for us. Nonetheless, after our adventures, returning to our cozy retreat provided the perfect opportunity to relax and recharge. The warm hospitality of the locals further enhanced our experience, leaving us with cherished memories of our time in Plettenberg Bay. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a perfect blend of adventure and relaxation on South Africa's beautiful coastline.

    The highlight of our visit was our walk on the Robberg Peninsular - stunning scenery, seals and other wildlife (lizards etc). Make sure if you do the walk that you take plenty of water with you, wear proper walking shoes (flip flops just won't cut it) and be aware that in some places there are climbs that are quite challenging.

    Plett is an amazing overall holiday destination.

    Plett is an amazing overall holiday destination. Beautiful beaches, warm water (compared to Cape Town), easy access to trails and hikes, unique places to eat like Emile Moon, close to Knysna which has its own draw cards

    I live in Knysna and frequently travel to Plett for a change of beautiful scenery. The garden route is surrounded by forests for hiking, beautiful clean scenic beaches, estuaries and sea to sail. Plett is a stunning town to visit, stay or live.

    We stayed in the so called Cottage Pie and had large, comfortable and nicely decorated rooms and common areas around a small pool (it was well maintained and clean but we didn't swim because we stayed in winter). The restaurant has big windows with unobstructed ocean view which you can enjoy while having your breakfast (sometimes we were able to see whales in the Plettenberg Bay from the outdoor terrace).

    La Vista indeed - absolutely incredible views over Plettenberg Bay! Big rooms with a huge bathroom that included a great shower with two heads, a rarity in South Africa for us. Great staff too - we were warmly greeted by a gentleman, I believe his names was Amos, who was happy to help with everything from luggage to drinks to a fantastic dinner spot recommendation. Great spot.

    The location is superb and offers exactly the right level of relaxation with easy access to pretty much anything that you need. The atmosphere and decor of the villa holds true to the beachy nature of the location, and it has everything you need for good self catering. Spacious enough for a family of four, baring in mind the single toilette and bath/shower combo.

    The most amazing location, on the beach!! Breakfast excellent with stunning views from the deck . Free use of umbrella, beach bag and swimming towels when going to the beach makes it so convenient. You just hand everything back when you done. Don’t have to drive and battle with parking when going to the beach, you literally walk out the hotel onto the beach.

    The restaurant was the best part of our stay, we ate there all three nights of our stay - we wish they had a branch in Cape Town :) Shower was nice and big and room had a good view of the beach. The hotel is close to the beach, restaurants and shops which made things very convenient.
