The
Beacon Island Hotel at Plettenberg Bay is truly a world-famous
landmark and one of the most sought-after holiday destinations.
Plettenberg Bay embraces one of the most beautiful sweeps
of coastal scenery in South Africa. With its breathtaking
backdrop of the Outeniqua and Tsitsikamma mountain ranges,
it is protected on one side by the Robberg Nature Reserve,
which juts into the sea.
This area is also awash with river and lagoons, indigenous
forests and bounded by long sandy beaches stretching east
and west.
Built on a rocky promontory jutting into the warm Indian
Ocean, Beacon Island's setting remains unsurpassed.
The hotel attracts a diverse group of guests - from the newly-weds,
who have chosen this romantic spot for their honeymoons, to
families who really appreciate the children's special entertainment
programme that the hotel operates during the season, to keen
sports enthusiasts and, of course, international tourists.
Most of the tastefully decorated rooms and suites overlook
the sea or lagoon, and have every modern comfort.
The hotel has three excellent restaurants.
The resort really caters to every taste and, apart from warm,
safe swimming in the sea, there are two swimming pools - one
outdoor and one heated indoor - a separate sauna for ladies
and gents, floodlit tennis courts, water-skiing, scuba diving,
volleyball, table tennis and squash.
For the health conscious, there is a fully equipped gymnasium,
with a daily aerobics programme.
The hotel is designed for pure relaxation and is the perfect
holiday destination, attracting visitors from all over the
world.
