- what a beautiful property! We loved every bit of the stay - especially the view over the beautiful nature!
1. Incredible sunrise in the morning (and general beautiful view)
2. Relaxing at the pool after or before spending the day out
3. Short drive (<5-10min) to birds eden / monkeyland / Tenikwa (we didn't try the forest spa - but also supposed to be good) and also one dinner place (peppermill); 30min drive to tsitsikamma national park, 35min to robberg hiking trail (highly recommended!!l
4. Gert-Jan and Ingrid were lovely hosts, they gave us very good recommendations, were very relaxed and we had some nice chats
5. We had some fresh eggs from their chickens (and we were also allowed to feed them - very funny to have them run towards you :)).
6. We used the washing machine and the hangers outside - very convenient (clothes were dry within 30min)

We made our own breakfasts. The hosts were very kind and helpful. The location is very close to the world-leading Birds of Eden, and equally close to the excellent Monkeyland. Conveniently close to the beautiful Nature's Valley, the magnificent Grootrivier Pass and the equally magnificent Western Cape portion of the Bloukrans River Pass. And not too far from Big Animal conservancy Jukani.
Nestled among a forest in The Crags, Forest Nature Spa is located close to attractions such as Birds of Eden, Monkeyland and Tenikwa Wildlife Center.

This place was so nice. It is a big luxurious house with an amazing view. They have a very friendly worker who comes in the night to put the fire. Breakfast was very good. I can't recommend this place enough, come early enough to enjoy the place!!
Featuring a garden with a terrace, Treehouse Cottage is an apartment located in The Crags. It features views of the mountain and indigenous forest. Free WiFi is available.
A beautiful region, with excellent restaurants. The Grootrivier and (Western Cape part of) the Bloukrans River passes are exceptional, as is Nature's Valley.
The Birds of Eden is THE world leading bird conservancy -- the biggest anywhere with free flying birds in a magnificent forest with a beautiful kloof, waterfall ,,, The nearby Monkeyland and Jukani conservancies are also probably the best in Africa.
Thyme & Again restaurant is also a favourite.

This is definitely not a family holiday spot!
This is definitely not a family holiday spot! It could, at best, be a backpackers lodge. The water in the bathrooms was brownish, and although there were assurances that it was healthy, we were sceptical. The rooms were tiny and barely furnished. The kitchen is communal and almost 100 meters away from the rooms - very inconvenient for those rainy days! What about the toilet and bathroom outside the rooms! We had surely booked the wrong place, and stayed only for one night out of four.

Its a wonderful place to stay, especially since it is 18kms...
Its a wonderful place to stay, especially since it is 18kms from Plettenberg Bay, so its more serene than Plett over the height of summer. There is a lot to do in the vicinity. We loved our visits to the elephant sanctuary (an absolute must-do), the wolf sanctuary, Birds of Eden, Tenikwa (wildlife rehabilitation), Jukani (wildlife sanctuary, especially for Big Cats) and Monkeyland. There's a super water park (Adventureland) about 19kms away, with fabulous waterslides.
We made the mistake of not booking restaurants for dinner in advance. Over late December / early January most places were fully booked, which really limited our options and we spent a lot of time calling around, which we could have avoided. I would scout the restaurants and book well in advance next time.

Animal sanctuaries are awesome and accommodation peaceful...
Animal sanctuaries are awesome and accommodation peaceful with beautiful views but restuarants are very limited especially durin the month of May when they shut down. If I did it again I would probably either pack food or stay in Plettenburg bay and travel through to the Crags for a day visit to the sanctuaries.
A little slice of heaven is how I'd describe Tamodi. People from big cities sometimes just want to get away from it all and just relax, this is a great place for that. The view is breathtaking and waking up to that every morning is beyond amazing. The chalet I was in was huge with modern amenities and it was just picture perfect. Everything you could ever need was available including a wine cellar! The beach is a short drive away and there are good restaurants nearby. Lynne and Owen were great hosts and their staff are very friendly!
We found everything we might need in the cottage like plates, pots, pans, pillows, blankets, etc. The cottage itself is a modest place with 2 bedrooms, a kitchen, a nice view, a parking space in the garage. The hosts are such a friendly and lovely couple.
The host made us very delicious breakfast and brought it early as we asked the previous night.
We enjoyed our stay a lot, it definitely was a good value for money, quite close to Nature's Valley. There's also a supermarket nearby.
This was a magical place to spend time on our South Africa vacation. The Villa is outstanding with the lovely rooms, resident animals/friends who gave us lots of cuddles, fabulous food and the host are very caring. I felt like I was wrapped in a warm blanket of care. Scrumptious breakfasts and phenomenal dinners. I cannot recommend this place enough! Luckily we spent three nights here but would have loved to spend even more time.

Beautiful property nicely decorated. Nice deck with pool where you can have dinner and breakfast outside if the weather is good. Good sized room. Possibility to have dinner in the hotel which we absolutely recommend, we did this 2 of our 3 nights and had 2 very good dinners! What made our stay extra nice is the amazing staff. Everyone was very friendly and very attentive.
We wanted a little escape weekend for my birthday and we got exactly that, out in nature. The accommodation was amazing, big spaces and well equipped for self catering. Ilze the host was just so lovely and helpful with information about the farm's surrounds for sight seeing and adventure.
This was our favorite of the places we stayed in South Africa, and we hope to go back some day. The proprietors are warm, welcoming, and helpful. Breakfast was wonderful, but you should definitely plan to eat dinner here during your stay- they were some of the best of the trip.
Everything was perfect, this was the most special place we stayed at in South Africa. The location is magical, rooms are clean and big, food was great (breakfast and dinner) and beyond all the staff was kind and generous unlike any other place. This is a must for couples.
I have loved the place, so different from an hotel, we could enjoy the view, the animals and feel amazed by the creativity! Very good breakfast (homemade bread and granola - the only place we have stayed on the Garden Road with a truly homemade breakfast).
We were served a lovely healthy breakfast on the patio. The location was close to Plettenberg Bay and all the attractions like Birds of Eden and the Snake park were very close. Loved the peace and quite and beautiful garden and dam.
We enjoyed the good breakfast on the veranda with a beautiful view.
Gert-Jan is such a nice person and gave us a lot of tips/ recommendations.
We will definitely come back to Colourful BnB, when we will be in South Africa again.
Gorgeous boutique hotel a short drive from Plettenberg. The staff is incredibly kind and thinks of everything. The food is fantastic. Amazing views from anywhere on the property. We did not want to leave!
An unbelievable place that really puts you in the middle of the forest and the nature! The staff was very welcoming and the whole hotel and spa buildings are just a beautiful work of art.
Peaceful, relaxing, beautiful and romantic. Love the boutique size of the hotel and attention to detail from the wonderful staff! They made us feel extra special!
