The Plettenberg PLETTENBERG BAY, SOUTH AFRICA


The Plettenberg, a part of The Liz McGrath Collection, is situated on a rocky headland in one of South Africa’s most spectacular beach towns. Tucked neatly into the Garden Route, Plettenberg Bay features a year-round temperate climate, golden beaches and dense green forests, making it the ultimate South African seaside escape. The five-star Small Luxury Hotels of the World


property has direct beach access and showcases the most breathtaking vistas in Southern Africa, with views of the ocean, mountains and endless stretches of golden sand. The hotel features 35 elegantly designed and beautifully appointed guest rooms, including 12 suites and two spectacular villas, the two-bedroom Beach House Villa and the three-bedroom Lookout Villa. Overlooking scenic Plettenberg Bay, guests of the villa can expect to be spoilt at one of the most exclusive addresses in the area. Darting seagulls and pods of whales and


dolphins can be viewed from the hotel, which with its open-plan lounge and dining area provides an ideal base for families or groups of friends.


The Plettenberg celebrates a culture of


impeccable hospitality and extends an authentic and warm welcome to all those who cross its elegant threshold. Guests may enjoy world- class cuisine courtesy of the restaurant at The Plettenberg, where executive chef Kyle Macaskill serves fresh and seasonal dishes in a seaside setting. Drawing inspiration from local suppliers, ingredients are always kept at a superb level of quality, and diners can expect an inspiring menu coupled with an award-winning wine list. The Sandbar is the perfect spot for pre- or post-dinner drinks, and the newly revamped Summer Lounge serves high tea and signature cocktails all day. Guests may relax at one of two pools with


stunning sea views, before being pampered at the Fresh Wellness Spa, which offers signature treatments using all natural and indigenous ingredients. Those wishing to take home a piece of Africa can indulge in a spot of shopping at the Collection Boutique, where a carefully curated selection of items by acclaimed and emerging South African designers can be purchased.
