Keurboom beach with Plettenburg Bay in the background.
Even though its a bit of a walk and the sun is burning, the best treat is to reach the beach afterwards! This is a must is ever in South Africa! #LifeAtExpedia
Robberg is a Nature Reserve in Plettenberg, South Africa. Walking here was definitely one of the highlights on our South Africa trip. Dont forget sun screen and a hat! #LifeAtExpedia
On the beach in Natues Valley, all you see is mountains, water and sand. Maybe a kite surfer or two. A really good place to rest you mind and get away from people, cars and city noises. #LifeAtExpedia

Stunning views , fantastic room and facilities. Could not fault the hotel or team. Only word of caution is that it is up a steep bank that requires caution whilst driving at night. Some great local restaurants but they are not walkable but don’t let that detract from this real find of a hotel.
