Excellent place to stay with comfortable rooms, nice bar and garden area, and delicious food. Great location close to supermarkets, center, and beaches. Friendly and helpful hosts.
Could not be improved in any way.

the location was perfect - just outside the main street of the city with a supermarket quite close. the service was faultless and the staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive. They even provide a well-resourced kitchen with spices and herbs to use, making it feel like a home away from home.
One aspect that could be improved was the placement of the outlets in the room. They were a bit high and far from the beds, making it a bit inconvenient to charge electronics.

This hostel was a great place to stay during my Easter holiday. The staff was so friendly and welcoming, making me feel right at home. The communal areas of the hostel were well-maintained and comfortable, with everything I needed to make my stay enjoyable. The location of the hostel was also really convenient, with easy access to local attractions and restaurants. Plus, the meals were a delicious surprise that made my experience even better!
While I had a great time overall, there were a couple of minor things that could have been better. For instance, the bunk beds were a bit noisy and could disrupt my sleep at times.

During our recent stay, we were pleasantly surprised by the warm and friendly atmosphere at this hostel. The staff were helpful and always available to provide advice and information about the local area. The breakfast was absolutely delicious, with a variety of fresh fruit, granola, yogurt, and toast. We also had the opportunity to enjoy the chef's amazing dinner creations, which were both tasty and affordable. The communal eating and chill area were great for relaxing and meeting other travelers. Despite a minor inconvenience of needing to pre-book meals and pay in cash, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and felt very safe throughout. we highly recommend this hostel to anyone visiting the area.

I recently stayed at a backpackers lodge in Plettenberg Bay and was pleasantly surprised by the value for money. The prices were very reasonable, especially considering the central location at the Market on Main. The staff were attentive and friendly, making me feel welcomed from the moment I arrived. The rooms had all the basic amenities I needed, including a comfortable bed for a good night's sleep. I also appreciated the fact that the hotel had toilets separate from the rooms, ensuring a higher level of privacy.
All in all, my stay at this hotel was more than satisfactory.

The complementary breakfast and Wi-Fi were great and saved us some money. the location was also convenient as it was close to the main attractions and restaurants. the highlight was the beautiful view from our room, which made our romantic escape even more special.
the shower was disappointing as the water pressure was weak and the heater didn't work properly.

This hotel exceeded my expectations in every way. the value for money is incredible. With prices that won't break the bank, you can enjoy a comfortable and clean room with every comfort you could need. Secondly, the attention to detail is impressive, from the newly kitted out kitchen area to the inviting communal lounge. Additionally, the location is perfect, right near the main street with easy access to shopping, restaurants, and nightlife. Lastly, the friendly and helpful staff made my stay even better.
Everything was absolutely fine.

We stayed at a hotel in Plettenberg Bay and were surprised by the luxurious amenities offered. the Garden area was serene and quiet, perfect for a relaxing afternoon. the exclusive Massage service was just what we needed to unwind after a long day exploring the area.
The lack of private facilities in the room. With the number of guests at this hotel, the shared bathrooms were sometimes busy.

I had a fantastic stay in this city and was impressed with the hotel's cleanliness, parking facilities and location right by the main street. The staff were friendly and helpful which made my stay even better. However, the highlight for me was the food in the restaurant which was not only delicious but also reasonably priced. The breakfast was also a great start to the day and helped me explore this city fully.
It was all superb.
