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.

Sello South Africa

High standard of accommodation, personal service from the hosts Linda and ole. Beautiful home you share with you guest and breakfast well! Nothing to much made all our restaurant suggestions and bookings and none disappointed. Thank you for a wonderful stay

Sandra United Kingdom

The house was located a 20min. walk to the centre. You stay with the hosts and their two dogs in their home so you should like dogs and you have to be aware that the hosts are always around you. The hosts (and their stuff) were very friendly to help you anytime (cab ordering, reservation at restaurants, tipps to go out etc). The breakfast was very tasty and while sitting outside you have an amazing view over the bay. We can recommemd this guest house!

Sabine Germany

The location is located a bit above the city center, with a perfect view on the beach. The villa is very modern and well thought out and designed. You can tell that someone really put effort in the interior and exterior design. The pool area and the pool itself is neatly located and nobody can look in this area. The hosts are very friendly and help you with booking restaurant last or with tipps what to do. We really have to admit it was one of the best places we stayed at during a three weeks trip.

Tolles Gästehaus, nette Gastgeber! Wir waren begeistert!

Jill Germany

Eine sensationell schöne Unterkunft in einer tollen Lage oberhalb von Plett. Linda und Ole sind super liebe und zuvorkommende Gastgeber. Wir kommen jederzeit gerne wieder. Es ist perfekt dort!

Rainer Germany

sehr freundliche Gastgeber, hilfsbereit und sehr zuvorkommend. Wir haven uns so wohl gefühlt, das wir gleich den Aufenthalt verlängert haben. Das Frühstück einfach himmlisch, die Kochkünste von den Gastgebern sind weltklasse…

High score for Plettenberg Bay Low score for Plettenberg Bay

Boasting panoramic views of Bahia Formosa Bay and the Tsitsikamma and Outeniqua Mountains, this charming guest house is a great base during stays in Plettenberg Bay.

Decorated in soft, earthy tones, Aquavit Guest House radiates a welcoming atmosphere. Start the day with breakfast on the terrace and marvel at views of the Indian Ocean, where whales can be spotted in season from June to November.

Guests can also enjoy a swim in the rim-flow pool or treat themselves to a professional massage.

Thanks to the small number of rooms, guests are ensured personal service at all times. Relax in the comfort of your room or in the spacious guest lounge.

Couples in particular like the location – they rated it 9.4 for a two-person trip.

Aquavit Guest House has been welcoming Booking.com guests since Aug 19, 2010
