Lodges in Plettenberg Bay

We were looking for a place where we can spend quiet family time. It was exactly what we were looking for.

Fantastic food, lovely rooms and amazing views!!!

This place is really one of a kind. The accommodation and the rooms are spotless and the view is stunning. The Hosts, Owen and Lynne are super nice and make you feel so welcomed. The nature is perfect to relax in piece and quiet.

Amazing experience from start to finish! Geoff looked after us. Being so close to the elephants at night was amazing in the boma lounge. The rooms were super comfortable, and the morning walk with the elephants was on another level!

We stayed in a sea view suite, which is the most expensive category and we were happy with it (except for the poor wifi connectivity in our room). Your overall experience may be quite different if you choose to stay in a cheaper room, as seen in the mixed bunch of reviews this property receives. The breakfast was the other thing that let us down. Maybe the cook that morning was having a bad day because the omelette we ordered was dry as sawdust and quite tasteless. The staff were lovely though, very warm and friendly.

Thank you for allowing us mere mortals to experience this house. This majestic house is mind blowing. I feel so bad for the reviews of guests that could not appreciate the privilege to stay in one of our country's historic villas. Peeling paint I could not find. Only style and comfort. Peeling paint in a 5 year old guest room where you have to fill the kettle in the bathroom and can only walk one step each way is a problem. How can anyone rate this lovely aged elegant ,place on the same scale as anything else! ! In my life I have not stayed in anything as grand as this. Beds and linen white, crisp and comfy. Kitchen as large as my whole house with a fireplace where you can wait for your meals to heat in the microwave or late night Milo to cool down. Feel like reading or answering emails , do that in the majestic , comfort of the first sitting room, with a view on vineyards and horses slowly grazing. Feel like eating or building a puzzle , you have a dining room with a table as big as any palazzo in Europe. If you feel like building and firing your own pizza or bread , you will find a pizza oven and braai under the best canopy with the best views. Nothing in this house is ordinary, don't book if you want a B&B copy and paste unit. This is something where you will have to know : no close, noisy neighbours,only a few minutes from the N2. Plan and bring your frozen meals or order Checker 60 for delivery . 10 min away is a very smart and well stocked Mug and Bean and a garage shop. Best coffee and bakes and good food like chicken and breakfast options. 24 /7. Don't come expecting to cook your meals on the stove top. Read the rules!...it is chaos if all 6 units wants to cook and guests sometimes do not clean after themselves..another review I saw. How can you rate this beautiful house low because guests were messy? That is why you cannot cook! But experience the grandeur of oversized furniture and the views and tranquility. Thank you Lombard Villa .

Great outlook over the sea. Very cosy and although the weather was chilly our hostess made sure we had extra Blankets and another Duvet. Having the Enrico's restaurant downstairs was a wonderful add on so we didn't have to use our car. Enjoyed the community atmosphere in the Restaurant. Wonderful to wake up in the morning looking out over the sea as the sun came up. Definitely worth another visit

It was absolutely wonderful! Beautiful location, conveniently located between plet and natures valley. Awesome in the forrest. The "fly me to the moon" cabin is amazing, so romantic and breathtaking views!

We spent two absolutely fantastic days at the lodge. It is situated on a hill, so you can enjoy a great panoramic view and wonderful sunsets every day. Everything is beautifully and modernly furnished. The food, wine selection and coffee were also fantastic. The location directly on the N2 means you can get to the Tsitsikamma in around half an hour. The lodge is therefore a very good starting point for hikes. Last but not least, we would also like to praise James and the entire staff: they really went out of their way to make sure that we had a fantastic stay.

Great place to stay, easy to find and Sue was super friendly and accommodating. Will definitely be returning in the future!
