Overview
Located just minutes from the white sandy beaches of Plettenberg Bay, along the famous Garden Route, this luxurious guest house radiates an intimate atmosphere. Thanda Vista offers guests a unique home away from home. Watch whales frolic in the bay while you enjoy a full English breakfast. Three of the 5 guest rooms boast fantastic sea views, with the remainder overlooking the garden area. With Keursboom Lagoon only 300 metres from Thanda Vista, guests can participate in numerous water sport activities. Explore the area either by foot or canoe. After a long and active day you can marvel at the sunset from one of the rooftop terraces or read a book in your cosy guest room.

“Tranquility and Comfort packaged beautifully”
Love the location in a quiet area yet only a couple of minutes from all the shops in one direction and the lagoon in the other. Highlight was my morning coffee and sunset times on the guest terrace. Amazing sunrises and then in the evenings watching huge pods of dolphins with my binoculars…virtually everyday! Love Thanda Vista! Also thanks to Katie for being the friendly face everyday.

“Home away from home”
Well Katy the lady that helped us at the property was friendly and helpful. The rooms were clean and the air conditioning worked excellently keeping the rooms warm during the chilly mornings and evenings. The view is live for. Facing the Lagoon and also a glimpse of the see to the right of the view.. Literally a walking distance to the shopping mall. We thank the management for organizing breakfast for us as they told us they no longer want to serve breakfast.

“Great B&B!”
Our host Ben was wonderful, he gave us all the great tips how to organize our three days at Plettenberg. Highlight was clearly our hike on the Robberg (stunning views) and the day in the Tsitsikamma NP. Breakfast was great with eggs made to order, very nice individual fruits platter. The location versus the only beach (at the laguna) where one can swim (no waves).
