Very helpful hosts. Very knowledgeable about the area etc.lovely breakfast
United KingdomWe stayed in the self catering cottage which was lovely. We had breakfast in the B&B on two occasions and it is exceptional. Fresh fruit, a wide range of different teas, cooked breakfast or pastries. The hosts were extremely knowledgeable about the area and made some fantastic recommendations for things to do, places to visit and restaurants to eat at, even booking the table for us. They could not have been more helpful. The swimming pool is lovely - not large but very adequate and clean. There is secure parking on site. The B&B is situated an easy walk to the beach, and also an easy walk to the shops and restaurants, but there is also plenty of parking near the shops as well.
United KingdomThe room exceeded expectation, especially for the amount paid. The hosts were extremely accommodating, and the property is short walking distance from the beach which is amazing. I have never met such hospitable and caring hosts, and they even helped us with contacts for taxis and showed the spots of where to go. The breakfast was also delicious, also good with friendly company. The entire energy was comfortable, positive and friendly.
South AfricaAdrienne and Bernie are the most friendly and service minded hosts we've ever met, thanks!! Nice, cosy rooms, good quality beds, very clean. Free access to indoor and ourdoor areas for socialising or relaxing. Pool is bigger than it appears on the pictures. Breakfast is fantastic! Located in a quite, prosperous area only a few minutes walking from a magnificent beach. Highly recommendable!
DenmarkThe Best B&B In Plettenberg!! With the warmest greeting on arrival from Adrienne & Bernie we knew we had picked the right place, they could not do enough for you , the rooms ( so big too!) and facilities put some 5* Hotels to shame. The attention to detail is second to none, the Breakfast was perfect and plentiful with great service from the Ladies. The local knowledge that they had too was invaluable in helping make our visit to The Garden Route so much more. The local restaurant s they recommend were spectacular, try ‘The Fat Fish’ for sure !!Thank you for a wonderful stay, hope to be back soon! Cannot recommend enough , book Bayside Lodge if you are staying in the area 👍🏼

Company information
We moved from Botswana to Plettenberg Bay in March 2014. After a comprehensive search around fifty seven properties in four Garden Route towns, we chose Bayside Lodge because of its fantastic location. We have 25 years experience in hospitality, upmarket lodge management and operations in Zambia and Botswana. We love Plett and all it has to offer our guests. Each day we see this gorgeous place through their eyes and just love it! We offer a warm but unobtrusive atmosphere and most of our guest are visiting Africa for the first time and they enjoy feeling safe as they are assisted with their experience of the Garden route.
Property information
Bayside Lodge is a typical four star graded Bed & Breakfast which is perfectly positioned in a quiet residential area of "Plett" just three minutes walk to Robberg beach and twelve minutes walk to restaurants and shops. We provide four suites with different features plus a swimming pool in a beautiful garden. Guests rave about our breakfasts which cater to all dietary requirements and we provide beach bags, umbrellas, chairs, boogy boards and picnic sets. Three suites are located upstairs in the main house and Finch Cottage is in the garden with its own sitting room/kitchenette as well as a patio and barbecue. We offer welcome drinks and cold/hot facecloths during the briefing during which we offer maps, discounts vouchers and brochures. There is a guest lounge as well as a large patio off the breakfast room. We live on the property and own two well behaved rescue daschunds. Guests love the fact that they can walk home from local restaurants in the evening and it is only a few minute's drive to Robberg Nature Reserve - Plett's no. 1 attraction. We have a generator for electricity when there are power outages and there is a reverse osmosis water filtration system for guests.
Neighbourhood information
Bayside Lodge is situated in Seaside Longships which is a quiet residential area along Robberg beach. It is a three minute walk to Robberg beach and there are restaurants and shops within walking distance. Access to the property is via an electric gate and we offer off street parking.
