    Located close to the Main Street, restaurants on a hill with an amazing view of the whole bay. The owners were friendly and attentive and very helpful when one of us got sick.

    Outstanding! A blissful paradise. Hosts were delightful and openly shared their beautiful home with us. The hosts could not do enough for us and the other guests and we were so sorry to leave them. They provided the most outstanding breakfast and their home was beautiful, spotlessly clean and awe inspiring . Thank you so much.

    Linda was extremely helpful when we made our booking advising on some very good restaurants. The house is beautifully styled and the room spacious and overlooking the pool and lovely garden. Excellent breakfast beautifully presented. Ole was also very helpful giving advise on the roads parking, the local market etc. One of the key benefits of staying in a boutique guest house. We had a very enjoyable time.

    Aquavit is an extremely comfortable and immaculate guest house with wonderful views over Plettenberg Bay. Our hosts Ole and Linda were charming and went out of their way to be helpful and ensure that we all had a great visit. They also provide the most fabulous breakfasts that will certainly keep you going all day!

    Nothing except that we could not swim at the beach due to a recent shark attack!

    This small B & B is more of a boutique hotel than a B & B. It is beautiful in every way - like walking into the pages of House and Garden magazine. The views from the terrace and the rooms are stunning and the two pet dogs are great company. If you are artistic, you will really enjoy Aquavit as the whole building is filled with beautiful paintings, drawings and sculptures. The building itself is gloriously light and airy. Breakfast is also a work of art; you will not need any lunch! Linda and Ole are charming hosts as are their staff. There's lots to do in and around Plettenberg and we recommend meals at the Fat Fish on the front.

    Highly recommened. We arrived as guests and were leaving as friends. We actualy were sad to leave. We originally booked for 2 nights but stayed one extra night. Absolutely beautiful accomodation with breathtaking views and AMAZING breakfast. The rooms are beautifuly decorated with everything that you might need, the beds are very comfortable with soft, very good quality linen. Everything in the house are of exceptional quality. Linda's breakast is so delicious, all ingredients are of the best quality and freshness. Thank you Linda and Ole. We hope to come again.

    The wife’s behaviour was offensive. Shouted at us and gave us wrong orders and insisted it’s what we ordered. Also instructed the helper to clear our table while we were still eating. We cud not even stay for our last breakfast.

    The husband and their stuff treated us so well.

    The owners, whilst they are “pleasant” they don’t posses the ability to be genuinely caring. Breakfast is strictly at 9am. You may only have one croissant and no more than 3 mini sausages!!! it’s not a place you can just “chill”. We were there for 4 nights and could not wait to leave. It such a shame as the property is beautiful, but if as a guest you are made to feel you walk on eggshells - it’s not a great experience.

    it’s a beautiful house overlooking the bay and lagoon. The rooms are well appointed and clean. three of the rooms lead off to an infinity pool. the breakfasts delicious and light (I generally don’t eat breakfast)
