Pure Luxury

The Plettenberg, Plettenberg Bay

 This five-star Relais & Chateaux hotel is named after the rocky headland on which it stands, part of the great Garden Route. A sensationally scenic stretch of South Africa’s south coast and home to vast expanses of virgin flora, forest, lagoons and sun bleached beaches as far as the eye can see. Needless to say, the views from the Plettenberg’s windows are nothing short of spectacular, not to mention the serene sunrises, whales breaching in the winter months and pods of dolphins seemingly rejoicing the whole year round.

Most of the 38 rooms have Indian Ocean views and all offer exceptional style and an uplifting sense of light. Many have step-out balconies, walk-in showers, under-floor heating and air-conditioning. For longer stays, the suites at The Plettenberg are just perfect, as they have a totally separate lounge area to ensure you fully unwind and relax.

Open all day, the stylish Modern South African Sand Restaurant gives some of the finest views of Formosa Bay along this stretch of the beautiful South African Coast (try the Karoo lamb). Laidback and glamorous, the Sandbar is a place to be seen, while the Wine Cellar attracts dinners a deux, made all the more romantic with a bottle of something local from the award-winning wine list.
Carchele Spa at the Plettenberg provides Decélor pampering treatments, aromatherapy, mud baths and rather more besides. The specialties are Hydrotherme pillow massage, and tsui yoga massage. Divine.
