The guest house was lovely, really friendly staff and good location. However, overall I was quite disappointed, I had expected a proper hotel and a much more luxurious experience given we paid over $500 per night. I wonder and hope this was a holiday price and other guests aren’t charged as much

Great family getaway in Plett.

Wonderful hotel, with incredible views and beach access. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Meals were enjoyable. Comfort, design and fixtures and fittings were great. Some maybe need replacement and care. The ownership does seem to take ‘ renovations seriously, so I am sure it will be like new soon.

Nah, not again

I'm terribly sorry to say that our stay wasn't that enjoyable.
It was our honeymoon and the room was really not worth the price. The Air conditioner would only stay on 30 degrees celcius. Eventually we discovered that the batteries were soo old that the acid had leaked out into the control and it no longer worked. The TV channels would come and then disappear as if it never existed. The TV channels that there were, had reception issues too. The curtains in the room were not block-out curtains. The outside lights were on all night and it was bright as day in the room so we did not sleep the first night. So we bought black bags and masking tape and taped up the windows and doors ourselves so that we could get some sleep the second night. The breakfast was not self service, so ones portions could not be adjusted, either leading to waste of food or not enough eaten. We found that the weekend staff were not as jacked up and the Monday staff ito service and knowledge and communication skills. Just too many little things that made our stay not worth it.

Great, but make sure to get a room with sea view

We stayed one night at this hotel on our honeymoon. They did not give us the room with sea view, hence we stayed below the kitchen which was loud and smelly. Service was attentive and invited to a bottle of wine, which we had on the front porch overlooking Plettenberg bay. The views are spectacular from the hotel and the dinner was as well (Try the Calamari starter). Also breakfast, which was included, was really really great.
I would stay there again but only in a room with sea view!

The Robberg was an absolute dream! From the moment we checked in, we were catered to. The staff was extremely welcoming and provided us with a map and information on Plettenberg Bay. The room was beautiful! So spacious, gorgeous bathroom and incredible views. The hotel is extremely secure and gated (you must swipe a badge to get into the hotel and park). Breakfast was included in our stay, which was a nice surprise since I did not know that when booking. Breakfast was delicious and fresh! Our two night stay in Plettenberg bay was supposed to just be a layover stop as we drove to our game reserve and it ended up being so much more. We felt like we were at a luxurious spa the entire time. Thank you to the entire staff for making our stay so memorable!

The first thing that struck me was the service at the reception desk which was so helpful. They were more than happy to advise places to eat nearby and didn't push their own dinner offering although in the end I did eat there for the night I stayed. The food was delicious.
The accomodation was really comfortable, but if I was going to book again would ask to stay in their main building with a sea facing view - although guess that might always be fully booked.

lovely hotel, right on the beach. it is close by to both Robberg Nature Reserve and Plettenberg Bay main town. The staff were really friendly, especially Fez. But all staff were really helpful and aided us whilst in town and with our onward plans.
the way the complex is split up into a few little areas is lovely and makes it really cosy. we stayed in Cottage Pie and were often the only people in that pool.
the Nature Reserve and the seals there is definitely worth a trip. good trainers or walking boots are required.
The many beaches are lovely. we visited Robberg, Lookuout where we saw seals and dolphins swimming.

Spoilt romantic stay!

When we arrived at the suite (R9) on the first day there was no toilet paper and no coffee pods for the coffee machine. On the second day we were awakened by a continuous thumping sound from the next door building site and decided to go out for the morning to explore the town, on arrival at about 15H00 we requested some ice and a extra heater as the room was very cold but did not receive anything until we left for supper at about 17H30.
We arrived back at the suite at around 19H15 and found that our allocated parking was occupied by another vehicle with an ND registration, my wife went to reception to request that the parking be vacated but was told that the people occupying the parking space were from central bookings and had gone out for dinner via Taxi and that we had to park further away around the back through gate B which was a huge inconvenience for my wife and I who thought that we would receive a romantic 5 star treatment getaway for two days... The ice and heater was only sent to our room on a second request from my wife that same evening and no attempt was made to re allocate the vehicle in our allocated parking...

Two bad things:
1) There are no king size bed (although all the sites shows in the options a king size bed) there’s only twins beds with a connecting mattress - so uncomfortable...
2)Wi-fi in the rooms works bad.
Two good things:
1) Breakfast is delicious.

Conclusion:
For this price It’s better to search for a better place to stay.

Great hotel in a wonderful location

Spent a wonderful three nights here in September 2017, with a sea-view / balcony apartment at the front of the hotel (room 6 in the main building). We even had a separate lounge area!

Food was good although not the best value meal we had on the Garden Route (but in fairness, Plett is generally pricier than elsewhere). Wine selection in the restaurant was very limited, which seemed bizarre given South Africa's reputation for good wine.

Staff generally very helpful, although we did request an iron / iron board on our first day, which never materialised. But not a major issue, and would have no hesitation in going back or recommending to others.

A gem over looking the ocean

Lovely venue with ocean view. Plenty parking. Very friendly and helpful staff. Tasty breakfast.
We were received with a complimentary coffee (hot chocolate for the kids) and cake - available throughout the stay in the lounge.
The rooms was lacking soap, shampoo and a light- bulb but it was quickly corrected.
Wi-Fi is unfortunately weak.
We were lodged in the 'cottage pie' building which is the furthest from lobby and restaurant - but did not bother us. Should it had been raining - it might 'dampen' the comfort of your meals.
Good value for price

Avoid - deeply disappointing and poor.

Really disappointing. Initially the room looked lovely, a page out of any good catalogue but then:
1. TV didn't work- we had to ask 3 times in 2 hours for someone to pay attention
2. Room was not cleaned - there was sand on the floor and in the freshly made bed - not sure how this was achieved
3. Wrong time given for our tour, which resulted in us rushing out the hotel with breakfast in our mouths (and we only got breakfast because of the great waitress who rushed our order)
4. Fridge generator would go off several times an hour throughout the night, ensuring there was no chance of a good night's sleep
5. No help with bags - a very half hearted offer was made by the woman (from a distance!) who greeted us - she made no move to help or get help - over our 2 day stay, it seemed we were the only guests to be treated this way.
6. Cold room.

We raised the concerns with the same woman, who again gave a half-hearted single apology. The refrigerator issue appeared to be no surprise. Her whole manner was really poor, no effort to address, properly apologise or anything - she avoid eye contact. She comped the laundry more because she couldn't find the paperwork, vs a goodwill gesture. We had a bottle of wine which she charged for, at 105 ZAR this would have been the better gesture. She really spoiled the stay. I'm finding it hard to believe this is 5 star, it simply was not up to scratch and was the only bad stay we had in SA. Avoid this place, it was such a disappointment.

Great choice at great price!

Our stay at Robberg Beach Lodge was perfect. The lodge is right by the beach, as the name suggests. The lobby and breakfast area have fantastic views and lighting both during evening and morning.

Our room was in the Cottage Pie part of the lodge, with a pool in front. It was pre-warmed up for us, and was quite cosy the whole night.

The lodge is a short drive away from the restaurants of the area (we tried Off The Hook, pretty good vibe and food).

Breakfast had a good selection of items and had traditional hot breakfast options as well.

Checkin in was smoothly processed and staff were very friendly and welcoming. However, the room was rather basic for a 5* rated hotel, with no hot water in one of the bathroom sinks and the room was starting to look outdated and well worn.

Not brilliant for the price but lovely location

Room was lovely, spacious and with a large balcony, but other guests told us that we were in the new block and older blocks were far grubbier. That was very easy to believe as the room was never well cleaned (three night stay), toiletries/coffee/milk never replenished, and service was very hit and miss during breakfast and dinner. Weirdly there was s dinner service but staff kept trying to pretend there wasn't. This may have been due to our two month old baby but I think it was because there are very few tables and so only a few guests could be accommodated. The beach is on the doorstep, a beautiful beach but for everything else you need to drive. A short drive but still not ideal, if you get hungry as nothing is within walking distance. The wifi was absolutely dreadful, it couldn't be used, and even after reporting it nothing improved.

What a pleasure

I only stayed one night and wish it could have been longer. It was a beautiful, quiet, spacious hotel. Breakfast was excellent, except it only starts at 8am, and even the the croissants were not ready -not even by 8h30. Other than that, it was an absolutely lovely stay.

No more than a 3* experience

Advertised as a 5* it certainly is not. If you want a 3* experience then stay here. The AC was broken and the portable unit they put in the room was inadequate along with not being able to reduce the humidity because they tried to run the AC excess waterline uphill. The shower floor was missing tiles and there was noticeable mold around the base wall of the shower. In the main room there was a significant piece of floor striping missing. Zero pictures on the walls and low quality dirty furniture. Overall less than adequate accommodations matched with marginal service. With all due respect to management they certainly lack an eye for detail. A 3* rating would be more realistic. My opinion ... Take the chance and stay somewhere else because it could hardly be less disappointing.

The Robberg Beach Lodge.... where paradise lives

I simply cannot rave enough about The Robberg Beach Lodge. I commend Jonathan on a superbly managed establishment and brilliant staff. From our arrival when we met Perseverance, our stay could not have been more pleasant. The staff is most obliging and intuitively knows what one wants. Well done!!!

Beautiful beach side hotel

The Robberg Beach Lodge was a standout for our South African trip. The team were so helpful, kind and will go above and beyond for your needs. The rooms are perfect with plenty of space and substantially sized bathroom/shower

Great hotel

Lovely hotel / guesthouse that I would definitely return to and would recommend, assuming you are looking for beach-front rather than town location.

Pros: fantastic sea views from both rooms we stayed in. Delicious breakfast that was one of the best we had in 3 weeks in South Africa, including from some hotels that were a lot more expensive than here. Lovely friendly staff, particularly at breakfast. Great location right in front of the beautiful beach. Exceptionally comfortable beds.

Cons: none that I can remember. The hotel is a somewhat unusual set up, e.g. it has more of a communal living area rather than what you would call a lobby, but this didn't bother us.

Luxury accommodation .

We stayed at the Robberg Beach Lodge for 3 nights. Every attention to detail was excellent. From the food to the location, the staff, management, the room and general helpfulness it was a great experience. Wish we could have stayed longer and will certainly go there again.
