A Truly Unforgettable Experience – Like Stepping Into a Dream vacation We recently had the most wonderful stay at what I can only describe as one of the most spectacular hotels we’ve ever visited. It was an absolute dream for our family—unbelievable in every way. Perched like a five-star ship atop a rocky outcrop, this hotel offers breathtaking views and access to three pristine beaches. The sand was spotless, the water crystal-clear, and the sea air carried that fresh, clean scent that instantly soothes the soul. It felt untouched—unpolluted and pure. The entire hotel has been beautifully renovated, and everything feels both timeless and luxurious. It’s like stepping back into a more elegant, peaceful era—where everything is clean, safe, and civilized. The atmosphere is serene, and there’s a deep sense of respect—for guests, for the surroundings, and among the locals themselves. We spent our days doing everything from mountain biking and road cycling to sailing, snorkeling, fishing, and even scuba diving. There are two gorgeous swimming pools, and the restaurants on-site (and nearby) are both quaint and delicious. The dedicated cycling and activity storage facilities made it all so easy to explore and enjoy. What stood out most was how safe we felt—safer, in fact, than in some parts of our own country. The staff were incredibly warm, helpful, and respectful. The guests, too, seemed to share a kind of quiet appreciation for the place—well-dressed, soft-spoken, and kind. Everything about the experience felt gracious. We’ve already booked our return visit two years from now, despite the long journey from the USA—because some places are worth every mile. This hotel is truly a hidden gem. What an extraordinary place to create lasting family memories. Just… lovely, lovely, lovely.

The hotel setting is beautiful and new and clean The downfall is there is no water in the room, no shampoo / conditioner etc just a very small soap at the basin If you stay for more than one night tge 2 nd etc morning you have to buy your own coffee sachets from them as they only provide one mornings coffee How does this work as they charge the same for the 2 nd and on nights This is not an entry level hotel and should provide these amenities At the restaurant they did not have change for cash and then said it is cashless - we saw no sighs saying that - she then said we take cash but have no change !! She was not friendly at all !! Also as we arrived my partner had to get the luggage rack himself and only when we had finished unloading our car onto it one of the porter came - one of three that had stood there chatting Sorry BI this is NOT good enough

The booking by Bridget at her agency was a total disaster.The check-in caused total confusion due to the continual change of times with a personnel evaluation done by the head receptionist as to the reason for the delay(she did recover the situation, however).All the staff were completely out of their depth and untrained. The General Manager Louise Otto was nowhere to be seen, and when I first saw her, she had no badge and denied working there. I spoke to her twice more and received no interest or answers.The whole hotel was devoid of management. The room and position (625) were superb as well as the outdoor facilities.The dining areas and lounge bar were poor and had a canteen like feel to them.

Grand hôtel de luxe, moderne et très bien tenu, qui selon le point de vue est idéalement situé sur un promontoire de la baie ou bien parasite la vue de la baie de Plettenberg. Coffee shop avec terrasse agréable, vue magnifique, service très sympathique.

Absolute paradise. The Beacon Island at Plettenberg just keeps getting better in all the years that I have been going there. The service, food and establishment is absolutely incredible. I recommend this to families, couples or friends wanting to have a good break away.

The hotel is beautiful with amazing views of the ocean. Rooms are spacious and stylish. The entire hotel is very clean and neat. Both pools are heated, which makes the water the perfect temperature for a lovely swim. Our stay was to celebrate my daughter's 6th birthday. The staff made her feel so special, by giving her a birthday gift and a beautiful card. For an escape from reality, this hotel and location is perfect. We really enjoyed every moment of our stay. Staff are super friendly and always ready to help. Food and cocktails were very good from the onsite restaurants.

The hotel is beautifully located on a hill with a Seaview at most rooms.. We could spot dolphins and whales from the window and had a seagull visitor everyday on our window searl. The rooms are spacious and clean and serviced daily. There is a covered heated pool and gym on the lower ground floor as well as a steam room in the ladies bathroom at the pool.The restaurant in the hotel provide meals at reasonable prices.
