We stayed at the Milkwood manor over a weekend in May and truly enjoyed it. What more than to sit next to the ocean and relax. The owners and staff are very friendly and the rooms spacious and very comfortable. Very convenient to have the restaurant at disposition with excellent choice and food. All a must when in Plettenberg Bay. More

Arrived from Knysna and wished we'd gone straight to Milkwood Manor we stayed in a room for three (room 3) on the ground floor with an idyllic view and spacious accommodation. The Lemongrass Restaurant presented an excellent choice of locally sourced food and turned out to be a real treat at a very reasonable price. Kayaks were available to row... More

We recently held our daughter's wedding at Milkwood Manor, using the in-house Lemongrass Restaurant for the reception. It is hard to imagine more beautiful views from the sea-facing bedrooms. The accommodation was clean and spacious, the staff friendly and helpful and Kees, Milkwood's owner, was a mine of information with his local knowledge. We enjoyed our little adventure in one...

We spent seven wonderful days here and reading previous reviews it is not so easy to better what has already been said. The hotel, position and how we were treated was quite unique and Kees, the owner, made sure we had every opportunity to see the surrounding area. We did not have or hire a car, wanting to just relax... More

We spent four glorious days at Milkwood Manor, undoubtedly one of the highlights of our trip to SA. The location of the hotel right on the sea, as well as the view from the room are absolutely breathtaking. The rooms are spacious, full of light and beautifully decorated, the restaurant is delightful and the owner, Kees, and his colleagues are... More

What can you say? Nice room, friendly people. Astonishing view from the balcony. As the sand has moved, you are now right next to the sea but quite some way from the beach. If you stay here, eat downstairs as the food is pretty good. More

Fine and quiet location on the brink of the lagoon and the ocean, with friendly service. The host is very knowledgeable about interesting places and routes, whether around Plettenberg or the wider surroundings. The on-site restaurant The Lemon Grass is excellent. More
