Description
Welcome to Plettenberg Bay Game Reserve. Experience a hidden gem, where abundant wildlife roam the plains, where the distant lion roars pierce the black dark of night and where the African sunset leaves an unforgettable memory. And all of this is just a few minutes' drive outside of Plettenberg Bay.
We offer the Baroness Lodge for accommodation. The lodge was built in 1822 by the Baron von Pletten, an early South African pioneer and conservationist, who used the lodge as his base to explore the diversity and wildlife of the then, untamed, African landscapes. Each of the spacious 10 double suites open out onto the rolling lawns, and the cool interior welcomes guests on the hot African afternoons. The suites have both indoor showers and lounging bathtubs, allowing guests to relax and unwind.
A cooling outdoor pool is available for the exclusive use of the guests or for those who are a little more energetic, a game of croquette on the lawn might be a good laugh. The outside boma is built over a dam and it is a haven for guests to enjoy sundowners and keep an eye on William, the resident hippopotamus. In the distance, the view from the boma is of Plettenberg Bay.

Plettenberg Bay Game Reserve in Wittedrift Reviewed by Giuseppe Potente, South Africa on . Only a zooGood for children , they can enjoy giraffes and white Rhinos.
Accommodation and food are not recommended for couples without Children. The dinner is under the South African standard, for the food quality, the food a mount and the Service .
Some rooms have a nice furniture but show a disappointing and unacceptable Township-style tin roof. One two-rooms house has also a tin outer wall so the heat inside is terrible ( no a.c., only a noisy shaky fan). Furthermore, you must pay in advance, so it is impossible to get a refund. Never more.
Plettenberg Bay Game Reserve in Wittedrift Reviewed by wimmie peters, South Africa on . FantasticThe service was perfect. All the staff were stunning, nothing was too much trouble. The rooms and game drives were very reasonably priced, and the accommodation was excellent. We will definitely be back again. Thank you for a wonderful experience.
