Periwinkle Guest Lodge

“Highly recommended lodge.”

Beautiful lodge with friendly helpful efficient staff. Lovely room with superb view of the beach one minute walk away. Excellent breakfast. Safe to walk locally into town. Big hill at the end ! Would stay again for sure when in Plettenberg.

“beautiful views and very comfortable accomadation”

the Guest lodge is beautifully located with a view over the sea and the sea. The rooms were comfortable and well equipped, breakfast were delicious and delightful when served out on the balcony. Brian was particularly helpful in booking tables, taxis and osteopaths! .

“Prime location directly on Robberg Beach”

The location is the main reason we stayed here, as you can easily walk across the road and onto the beach. View from breakfast and from the pool could not be better.

The location is the main reason we stayed here, as you can easily walk across the road and onto the beach. View from breakfast and from the pool could not be better. The staff are very helpful, especially Brian. My only complaint is actually with Agoda who I booked through - rather book directly or use booking.com. Firstly Agoda insisted on billing me in USD even though my credit card is in Rands, and i am paying Rands so there was an exchange rate loss. It was impossible for Agoda to change this as they claimed I signed up as a USD user which was false. Secondly it seems Agoda had not even passed my payment on by the time that I checked out requiring me to prove I had pre-paid.

The best bit was the view; the waves rolling in and the long sandy expanse of beach. The next was the breakfast which was very good and the general quality of the communal area and the superior room/bathroom was good albeit the smallest of similar priced accommodation we used across Cape Town and the garden route. There were aspects that I wasn’t happy about and I think this reflects the company policy and not entirely at the hands of the staff. However, Brian stood out - head and shoulders above the other managers. Went that extra mile. No staff on duty after 8pm. Unless my British phone is to blame, I was unable to connect to the duty manager (after trying many permutations) when a rave in a nearby property carried on unabated from 5pm until 3am. Our superior room did not have a balcony light and no privacy from the balconies either side of us. Had to sit indoors after dusk as a result. The swimming pool was actually very small- not much more than a plunge pool with a few loungers squeezed around. 4 people was a crowd so that was a non starter. Sorry folks, maybe it’s my age (late 60s) but I didn’t buy into the gushing ratings I’ve read on TA and for the price it didn’t hit the mark. Why give guests a breakfast menu with prices giving the impression that a cappuccino was chargeable?
