Lovely quiet and serene.
The place is peaceful and quiet with a serene yard/pool area. The rooms are lovely with seating area and private patio. It is about a mile outside of "town" but feels suburban. I think it's great for a couple or family with a car. As a solo traveler I didn't find it perfect as I was reliable on taxis but that is unique to my needs. The place is lovely.

Just off the N2. Very secure, Comfortable rooms overlooking pool. Flowers and chocolates on pillow - very nice touch. About 15 mins walk into Plettenberg Bay town. Breakfast offered at additional cost but very reasonable. Very happy with stay and value for money.

The breakfast was excellent and the manager was very helpful. She had many very good suggestions for things to do in the area and had some 10% discounts for local attractions. Beds were comfortable and we slept very well.

Quick, overnight stay
I only stayed for one night on my way to the Drakensberg Mountains. The room was comfortable and clean. I especially enjoyed a glass of wine on the patio in the evening! Staff was helpful and accommodating. I would definitely stay here again

Wished we could have stayed longer!
We had such a nice time at Mandalay Guest house. We regretted that we were only able to stay one night. The room was large and comfortable, with kitchen and bath. Erika was a fantastic host and gave us plenty of local tips. The breakfast was really good and we ate outside by the pool. Overall a very lovely stay.

Super Preis-Leistung
Wir wurden äusserst nett und zuvorkommend von der Landlady Amanda begrüsst. Im Zimmer war alles sehr liebevoll arrangiert und dekoriert. Tee, Kaffee, Wasser, Milch und Zucker wurde bereitgestellt. Die Betten waren sehr bequem (inkl. Bettsofa). Sichere Umgebung - nur ca. 5 Min. vom Stadtzentrum.

Sehr schöne Anlage
Plus: Sehr nette Vermieterin, gutes Frühstück, sehr schöner Garten und Pool. Minus: Keine Klimaanlage (eigentlich kein Problem, da es abends schön kühl war und ein Ventilator vorhanden war, aber die Fenster im Bedezimmer (sehr geräumig) lassen sich nicht öffnen, was bedeutet, dass die Feuchtigkeit im Raum steht, das Bad riecht dadurch auch etwas feucht, leicht modrig. Fazit: gutes Preis - Leistungs - Verhältnis, mit geringer Investition (Lüftung im Bad) noch viel Luft nach oben, da die Anlage wirklich sehr schön ist.

Ótima guesthouse, com excelente atendimento e café da manhã, que apesar de ser pago a parte, valia o investimento. A única ressalva é que o estacionamento é fora da propriedade.
