Moonshine on Whiskey Creek, hotel in Plettenberg Bay

Set in a forest and nestled among the trees, Moonshine on Whiskey Creek offers self-catering accommodations in wooden cabins, just toff the N2 national road and 9.3 mi away from Plettenberg Bay.

We enjoyed our stay in Bushpig cabin. We used it as a base to go to Tsitsikamma National Park and Plettenberg Bay. It is close to a number of decent restaurants and to many attractions. Special shoutout to Enrico's Restaurant and Bread and Brew Farmstall which we found to be excellent. The cabin had a fan, which was needed as it was quite hot while we stayed there. Evenings cooled things off and I moved the fan so it would bring in outside air and lower the cabin temperature--not just provide air flow. The pool was large, had comfortable lounge chairs, and clean. We also loved the hike down to the waterfall--perhaps 20-30 minutes down and 30-40 back up. The waterfall is not really impressive, but the surrounding cliffs are and the pool at the bottom was good to swim in.

    Breakfast was outstanding in choice and quality and was served in a beautiful light and sunny room. Staff were next level and made one feel like the only person staying at the lodge with their friendly, yet professional manner. The dinners at all of the restaurants was beautifully presented and of exceptional quality. A wide variety of facilities and services available to guests. Lovely walks on the property. Location was secluded enough to offer serenity and relaxation yet within close enough proximity to all the local attractions.

    The unique experience and oppertunity viewing the elephants at night and at rest as well as the interaction with them and the guides. The rooms were pristine, warm and comfortable. The lodge was very accommodating with any special requests! Rhe Cafè was comfi and the food was good. The kids could enjoy the ducks and swans and the play area while we relaxed. A great family lodge!

    Staying at the Knysna Elephant Lodge cannot be summed up in mere words such as awesome, wonderful, enchanting, spiritual. It was so magical to feed, walk with and observe these majestic land animals 24/7! The grounds were beautiful, the staff and guides fantastic and of course the elephants. Both my travel partner and I felt that if we didn’t have family and obligations back home, we would have stayed on and volunteered. It was that phenomenal of an experience!

    Everything about this Lodge was awesome. The location, the staff, the elephant encounters, up to "sleeping with the elephants".

    The highlight of our South Africa trip! Emily Moon River Lodge is an amazing property with the coolest boho decor and incredible lodges. We couldn't get over the views!! Grant was the friendliest host, reserving us a table at the popular Simon's Bar for pizza and live music, and recommending lots of things to do in the area. Wish we could have stayed longer!

    Beautiful lodges with spacious tastefully furnished rooms. The open kitchen is equipped with basic kitchen utensils and condiments. Large outdoor barbecue area. The highly recommended restaurant serves quality dishes and remarkably creative cocktails in a private athmosphere. There is plenty of opportunity for adventures on the island and it's surrounding river. The ferry to take people on and off the island works well on a 15min notice period. There indeed are Zebras roaming the island which are curious and friendly.

    - the lodge is located in a natural paradise; directly on the Bitou River, very quiet and idyllic - rooms are nicely furnished and clean, except for the bathroom, which seemed a bit uninspired - Kerry, the hostess, was eager to give good tips and booked tables in restaurants for us in the evening as well as organizing a great safari

    I loved the place! The lodges are not just very beautiful you also have a amazing view on the river. Sitting on the porch with a glass of wine or enjoying yourself in the bathtub or relaxing on the pool or having a massage in your room or going for a kayak tour, all of this kind of activities make your stay even more lovely. The breakfast and also the dinner is awesome. 😊 Really enjoyed the place and would love to come back some day.
