We had an absolutely fantastic stay at both Hunters Country Lodge and Tsala Treetop Lodge in Plettenberg Bay. Nestled in beautifully manicured gardens and lush forest canopies, these lodges offer a serene and luxurious escape that exceeded all our expectations.Every detail was thoughtfully taken care of — from the cozy fireplace in the room to the delicious homemade treats delivered each evening. We were surprised with charming little gifts and poetic notes on our pillow every night — a truly personal and heartwarming touch. With three excellent restaurants to choose from, the culinary experience was outstanding. The food was delicious, and the wine list impressive. The decor throughout both properties is tasteful, elegant, and exquisitely curated. But above all, it was the exceptional staff who made our stay truly unforgettable. Warm, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile — nothing was too much to ask. Their dedication to guest comfort and genuine hospitality left a lasting impression. We will most certainly be back! Highly recommended for anyone looking for a refined and soul-soothing getaway.

We stayed here on our honeymoon for one night and it was so worth it. The lodge was incredible and there were lovely touches from staff, a plate of goodies and drinks when we got back from dinner

Absolutely the best accommodation during our vacation! We loved our stay VERY much! The cottage, the bed, the bathroom, the location, the comfort, the beautiful surroundings, the views, the naughty monkeys. Breakfast was also very good and extensive. The hosts are so kind and make sure you have everything you need. Thank you for making our stay memorable. Plettenberg Bay is also a great location for a lot of nice day visits with a few good restaurants. I will definitely come here again in a few years.

    Another wonderful stay in this gem of a hotel. From the moment you check in you start to feel the special elegant and restful ambiance of this beautifully decorated hotel. Rooms are tasteful, light and airey with a lovely nautical feel. Bed also extremely comfortable. Beer battered hake served in the restaurant was some of the best we have ever eaten and their breakfasts are what one would expect from a 5 star establishment - fabulous ! To Ian, thank you for going above and beyond to make our stay special ! We will be back again.

    Excellent b’fast. Dinner menu should be changed, it is always the same, not a 5 star chef. This hotel is sheer luxury brilliant rooms, staff and location.
