Loved this small place along the river. Great rooms overlooking the river with big deck and super room. A perfect place to relax and enjoy the beautiful river.
We only stayed at Plett River Lodge one night, but it was very nice. Rooms were very large and comfortable. The deck area was beautiful and had lots of outdoor furniture so you could enjoy your time outside as well. Unfortunately the wifi hardly worked in the rooms, but you could go to the common area to get it, so we were fully without it.
Lovely spot. Excellent restaurant too. (Open for breakfast and lunch and closed Monday). Comfortable large room. Good bed and shower. Quiet. Lovely riverside views. Only minor issue was weak wifi in room but fine in reception area. Very nice staff.

Maria and Linah were wonderful. The place itself was looking rather tired and in need of maintenance. Rooms were comfortable and large.
This place is absolutely stunning, it's so brilliant, particularly for that price. Maria met us as we arrived who was very lovely. Loved it!

The family room was great for us - nice and big. Spare room for our toddler. The staff ensured our heater was on and electric blankets for when we came home from a chilly dinner. The on site restaurant was really good and so nice to have a play area on site for our little one. The view was stunning!

Quaint and right on the river
Room lovely and spacious with very comfortable king size bed.
Sitting on the deck right over the Bitou river was lovely. Only drawback was the continuous highway noise.
