A Clifftop Garden Route Hotel

On a rocky headland in Plettenberg Bay, South Africa, The Plettenberg is a five-star Garden Route hotel of 35 rooms and two villas, with sweeping ocean and mountain views and the SeaFood restaurant.

Where the horizon meets the sea

The Plettenberg sits on a rocky headland in Plettenberg Bay, along the famous Garden Route, a five-star seaside hotel with some of the most breathtaking views in Southern Africa, over the ocean, the mountains and long stretches of golden sand. It has 35 beautifully appointed rooms and two family-style villas, and is a member of the Liz McGrath Collection. Dining centres on SeaFood at The Plettenberg, from group executive chef Peter Tempelhoff, where fresh seafood is the order of the day, with ocean views throughout. There is a spa, and the temperate year-round climate makes it a draw for the outdoors, from the beach to whale and dolphin watching in season. Plettenberg Bay is a multigenerational favourite with plenty to see and do. It suits couples and families who want a clifftop coastal base with standout views and seafood on the Garden Route.
