overview

The holiday town of Plettenberg Bay offers one of the most spectacular beach and mountain settings in South Africa and at its heart lies The Plettenberg Hotel, a Relais & Châteaux property with unparalleled views of the area. Enjoy huge ocean vistas and dolphin sightings from either of the two swimming pools or other hotel lookout points, while southern right whales are regularly seen in season.

Set right at the epicentre of the Garden Route, The Plettenberg is within easy access of a huge range of outdoor activities and adventures that includes watersports, golf, bungee jumping and hikes through the Tsitsikamma National Park. Plettenberg Bay also has a fantastic nightlife buzz and a selection of award-winning restaurants.

Dining

The hotel's restaurant - Sand at the Plettenberg - offers modern South African cuisine ranging from delicious breakfast buffets and light lunches right through sophisticated gourmet dinners. Executive Chef Peter Tempelhoff has accumulated many accolades thanks to his philosophy that each plate of food served at his Relais & Chateâux restaurants should be the best it can be.

Besides the incredible food at Sand, the fantastic views of Formosa Bay are also mirrored by the décor, colours and mood of the restaurant. Should you feel the need for a little more privacy however, you may book a romantic table for two in the award-winning wine cellar.

If you feel like a drink, The Sandbar is the place to see and be seen. The fashionable interior offers a glamorous setting for sipping cocktails or champagne while watching the sunset.
