The Plettenberg
An elegant Garden Route boutique hotel that reflects the beauty of its South African coastline surroundings
Rooms at The Plettenberg are bright and airy, with floor to ceiling windows and soft blue and aqua tones that echo its marine setting. Opt for an expansive suite for added space and direct pool access, or a private villa for your very own pool. The Plettenberg Restaurant has a contemporary feel and certainly won’t let you go hungry, creating magic from seasonal ingredients. Pre-dinner (or anytime) cocktails are shaken and stirred at the elegant Sandbar. And high tea is quite the occasion – served in the intimate Summer Lounge or out on the terrace with a side of awe-inspiring views.

When you can tear yourself away, the charms of the Garden Route beckon. Stroll down to Lookout Beach, perfect for families with its shallow lagoon. Robberg 5 is popular for swimming, and Keurboomstrand for surfing and long, contemplative walks. See magnificent humpback whales up close on a boat trip – or embrace your inner thrill seeker with a bungee jump or canopy tour.
Enjoy your stay!

Fruits of the (South African) sea
Under the watchful eye of Head Chef Kyle Macaskill, The Plettenberg Restaurant has become a destination dining spot in its own right. Its focus is on bringing the freshest flavours from land and ocean to your plate. Lunch beside the pool on light dishes like bouillabaisse and fragrant steamed mussels. Indulge at dinner with a decadent seafood platter or traditional South African bobotie. After a day by the sea, the SandBar is the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a glass of fine South African wine.Walk on the wild side
Plettenberg Bay is just one of many highlights of the diverse 200km Garden Route, one of South Africa’s most popular experiences. Charming towns dot the coastal road, and stirring scenery waits around every corner. Close to Plettenberg Bay, visit rugged Robberg Nature Reserve and its colony of cape fur seals, or go ‘big five’ spotting at Botlierskop Private Game Reserve.Our rooms
