Special thanks to Samantha on reception for been so lovely and helpful for us.
Great location. Beautiful furnishings. Superb food. Excellent views. Professional and friendly and helpful staff. Only one issue that door leading into room not soundproof and lock not according to international safety standards.
Sadly, only a one night stop over whilst travelling the Garden Route, but we will go back for longer.
Superb hotel with great service and very friendly staff.
Room was large and spotless, and the food was delicious both evening meal and breakfast.
We had a lovely 1 night stay at Plettenberg whilst visiting the elephant sanctuary. Staff very amazing and very friendly. Food, drinks and views exceptional. Would definitely recommend
