Lovely old building very well maintained with a modern twist. Possibly the best location in Plettenburg for amazing beach and ocean views and easy access to all the town’s restaurants and shops.

Garden Route Safari Camp offers a fantastic story and purpose- restoring the original nature so the fantastic animals ( lions, giraffes, rhinos, hippos etc) once again can thrive in their natural environment. The staff and guides are just wonderful and they will do the outmost to make your stay at Garden Route Safari Camp special and personalised. We did the Sundowner and Early Bird game and it was worth doing them both as they offer different experiences. We will always remember to drink our hot chocolate with the grazing rhinos close by or have a wonderful GT while admiring the lions. Thank you to all the staff at Garden Route Safari Camp to make our stay so wonderful and meaningful..

Best hotel we have ever stayed in..so beautiful..everything you wish for and more. We came with our baby and everything was taking care of..it was an amazing stay.

    The beautiful house and it's lovely colorful interior, the stunning view over the beach from our room, the great garden and it's direct location at the beach! What a wonderful house this is! Some further information about the b&b: rooms are big, beds are comfortable, breakfast had everything you need to start into the day, staff was also very friendly. We did a very long walk on the beach and will never forget this perfect stay!

    Mossel Bay itself, has maybe not the best offers of activities. However Bay Lodge offered us some relaxing days on a beautiful location on the beach. We particularly liked the rooms with sea view. The breakfast, which we ate on the terrace had gorgeous beach view, was extraordinary. There was lots of choices from the cooked breakfast menu and interesting good fresh fruit.

    Knysna’s geography is beautiful. It is built alongside and in places in a massive lagoon. There are alot of activities eg walking, scenic drives, boat trips, golf courses etc. The town and its waterfront has a large range of shops and restaurants. Knysna is a must see and visit destination on the Garden Route.

    Mossel Bay is an ideal holiday destination for travelers seeking a mix of the following : 1. Historical exploration 2. Stunning beaches 3. High-energy outdoor activities, watersports, mountain biking, golf, hiking 4. Good restaurants, with some live music entertainment 5. Cabin living on farms away from the city We have been visiting Mossel Bay for the last 30 years and continue to be one of our favorite holiday destinations, making it one of the most underrated stops along the Garden Route.

    Loved the view and i enjoyed climbing the stairs to our room. The room was cozy, bed very comfortable - had all we needed. All shops, restaurants and beach in walking distance, loved our beach strolls. The artist was busy with the most beautiful paintings within the subway leading to the beach. The breakfast at the place was delicious so we enjoyed dinner at The Blue Olive the Friday night and Ilali the Saturday night. We enjoyed the Saturday market, so many stalls.

Enjoyed the Tsitsikamma Canopy Tour, the guides were so friendly, had loads of fun! Marilyn's 60's Diner - lovey restaurant definitely worth a visit. Don't forget to visit the Wolf Dog Sanctuary Would love to have spent more time there to explore the hidden gems.

    Albertinia is a small country town without the big fast food take aways . Very rural . You can buy the basics at one of the cafes or Pizza place . There is not much as far as shops go so it is a stopover to break a long journey or a week or two of total peace and quite without too many modern day interruptions. There is a braai area and all you could want to have to have an enjoyable stop and a good night's sleep and no rush to get you out in the morning .. I simply bought rolls and cold meat and yogurt at Piet se kafee as I did not want to cook . Coffee is provided although if to a heavy coffee drinker you may want to buy a bit extra as most guest houses only give you enough for two or three cups of coffee . I had a nice chat with the owner who told me about the abundance of underground water and about the area in general...This is not a property where you can come in and drink and party and be a nuisance to others . . No smoking inside the chalets which is excellent @
