Everything is amazing there. The owners are the kindest people I've ever met. I traveled in more than 115 countries but I've never met so nice people. The room was very clean, comfortable.. Vinthi, the owner, is the entire day around, she helped me with a lot of things. She even asked her husband to give me a lift early in the morning. The area is very safe, we walked every night to the restaurants. I highly recommend this place.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

This was one of my best hostel experiences anywhere in the world. The host went so far out of her way to help with recommendations and to ensure you have a perfect stay. Couldn't rate Nothando's highly enough. Definitely worth staying at if you're in Plettenberg Bay.

Small family-style backpackers with a single dorm room and attached bathroom, around the corner from bus loop and main road. The hostel is clean and quiet, with large common room and very well-equipped kitchen. Mattresses in dorm are very comfortable; dorm room also has private entrance. Good place to meet other travelers!
