We made an upgrade to the honeymoon suite in the upper floor. It has a very nice view across the garden over bushes and trees till the seashore.
The room features a huge bed and bathtub (and also a shower) and is very nicely decorated with things from the 18th and 19th century. It has also its little private balcony.
There is a huge kitchen available to all guests with huge dining table. I liked also the big terrace with tables and seats and with a stove for braii.
The owners were very friendly and helpful.

Position was great. Staff very friendly and helpful.
No aircon and the fact that you cannot change the TV channels were very irritating. No fresh milk in the room and Ricoffee is just not good enough. No water in the fridge to drink.

I This is a beautiful guest house in a gorgeous location. We stayed in the honeymoon suite which has the most beautiful view for sunrise from the bed. There are two balconies and both have a nice view. The bed is very comfortable and the quality of the linen and towels is excellent.. Inga is a great host and gavus great tips for restaurants and outings. You can make use of all facilities too if you don't want to eat out., There is a full kitchen to use to make or heat food.

No breakfast
No milk in the room for coffee and very poor brand of coffee - Koffiehuis. Could not enjoy any wake-up coffee and lounge/kitchen area was locked so couldn't get there either. Hostess said she'd bring - didn't.
A hook or two in the lovely bathroom would be nice.
4.3
The small private balcony with incredible view, very friendly and welcoming host (lots of tips for activities), very safe
Sight protection in the bathroom could have been better as the windows are situated right in front of the balcony.

Our room was gorgeous, very comfortable and spacious with a great view. We upgraded our room once we arrived and it was totally worth it. Both would have been nice but the upgrade was extra special.
Inga was SO helpful and friendly, making sure we had everything we needed and helpful us organize all our plans and activities.

Beautiful stay! The guesthouse is absolutely lovely, our room was super comfy and breakfast each morning was excellent. The main common area of the guesthouse was great, and we particularly loved the terrace. Parking was easy and secure too. Most importantly our host Inga also went above and beyond to provide recommendations, assistance and helped us organise activities while we were staying in Plett which was hugely appreciated and made our trip a breeze.
No complaints whatsover

We stayed at the honeymoon suite. The hotel has a very unique style and it totally works. The value you get is unbeatable and Inga was a great host. She recommended the restaurant we went to and even booked us a table.
We would definitely stay there again!

Fantastic host Inga and also her mother and father went above and beyond for us :-) Very nice people.
They have a beautiful place and Inga makes a lovely breakfast spread (inc cooked breakfast) to enjoy overlooking the sea of a morning.
Great communication before and during the trip.
They are always on hand to help you with anything and book or recommend the best places with discount also.
Wish we could of stayed longer here and in Plettenberg bay longer.

The host was very welcoming and helped us with organizing our stay in Plettenberg Bay. You can get a 10% discount on a variety of trips if you book it via the accommodation. We’d definitely come again!
