Progress in Plettenberg Bay

Despite the recent downturn in the property market of South Africa, Plettenberg Bay's market has been flourishing. 

Several developments are underway across town, from hotels to shopping malls. Here are a few interesting examples:

The Sky Villa Boutique Hotel: "Basking in spectacular sun rises over the Indian Ocean - perched over the picturesque ebb and flow of the beautiful Plettenberg Bay shoreline, towers Sky Villa Boutique Hotel. The heart of a poet would surely sing at the sight of such natural beauty. Guests would be forgiven for never leaving their rooms as the 360° ocean views are arguably the most spectacular to be experienced. Enjoy the freedom to enjoy invigorating walks around the secure, picturesque estate. Be on top of the world and allow the sounds and smells of the big blue lull you to sleep." 

The Mungo Mill @ Old Nick Village: "In January 2017 we embarked on our latest project. We are building what we are calling the Mungo Mill, a working weaving museum that will open to the public in order to showcase the age old art of weaving, from pre industrial-revolution to present day. 

Through industrialization we have lost touch with the process of how the goods we use are made. At Mungo we believe that with a policy of total transparency, in addition to the experience of visiting our manufacturing facility, and with the use of our products we can start to regain a connection with how our world works. This is part of our sustainability, transparency and traceability objective, if people can understand where something comes from or how it is made they will value it more, and in turn this can help to curb the blind consumerist attitude that is affecting our planet."

The Old Rectory Hotel: "Located in the heart of Plettenberg Bay, one of South Africa’s most loved coastal towns, The Old Rectory is an immaculately restored national monument built in 1777 and reimagined into an intimate boutique hotel. With only 18 luxury suites and a short stroll from the beach, you can expect a personal, world-class experience with plenty to see and do including a spa, in-house restaurant and sparkling pool."

These stunning places are sure to put Plettenberg Bay on the map!
