Our one regret about choosing to stay at Aquavit is that we didn't stay longer. Linda and Ole are perfect hosts and should be congratulated on having created such a lovely house. It is light-filled and comfortable, full of art and books. We also enjoyed the company of their two lovely dogs. Breakfast is delicious, especially the scrambled eggs with... More

Beautiful property, very well furnished and comfortable. Facilities are everything you would expect, though the wifi was a bit hit and miss. The property is on the outskirts of Plettenberg with an elevated position so the view over the bay is very nice. Breakfast was great sitting on on the terrace with the view of the bay. Loved the dogs.... More

The guest house is situated in a quiet, safe residential area of Plettenberg with stunning views over the bay. The property is beautifully designed, well maintained, spotlessly clean and of a very high standard throughout. Our bedroom was spacious and beautifully furnished leading directly onto the pool deck. The ensuite bathroom was well equipped and of a high standard. There... More

This was our first trip to South Africa, and we stayed at Aquavit for one night on our way up the Garden Route. We soon realized we should have stayed longer, and kicked ourselves for spending the night before in a hotel in Cape Town when we could have enjoyed a second night at Linda and Ole's beautiful house.
